HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

In a medium saucepan, combine the milk and fine semolina. Whisk well to ensure there are no lumps.

02

Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring constantly with a whisk or wooden spoon to prevent sticking.

03

Once simmering, reduce the heat to low and continue to cook, stirring frequently, for 10-12 minutes, or until the pudding thickens to a creamy consistency.

04

Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the honey, orange zest, and vanilla extract until well combined.

05

Divide the warm pudding among 4 individual serving bowls or ramekins.

06

Allow the puddings to cool slightly at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until thoroughly chilled and set.

07

Before serving, garnish each pudding with 1 tablespoon of chopped pistachios.

Chef's Tips

For an extra citrusy flavor, you can add a splash of fresh orange juice along with the zest. Adjust the amount of honey to your preferred sweetness. A pinch of ground cardamom can also be added for an aromatic twist.

Easy Substitutions

Almond extract can be used instead of vanilla extract. If you don't have pistachios, chopped almonds or walnuts make a great alternative for garnish. Any type of milk can be used, but whole milk provides the creamiest texture.
