HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1/2 cup of the whole milk with the cornstarch until smooth. Ensure there are no lumps.

02

Add the remaining 1 1/2 cups of whole milk, granulated sugar, and ground cinnamon to the saucepan. Place over medium heat.

03

Cook, stirring constantly with a whisk, until the mixture thickens and comes to a gentle boil, about 5-7 minutes. The pudding should coat the back of a spoon.

04

Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the orange blossom water.

05

Pour the pudding into 4 individual serving dishes or ramekins. Let cool slightly at room temperature.

06

Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until thoroughly chilled and set.

07

Before serving, sprinkle the chopped pistachios over each pudding and drizzle with honey.

Chef's Tips

For an extra touch of elegance, you can lightly toast the pistachios in a dry pan for a few minutes before chopping to enhance their flavor. Adjust the amount of orange blossom water to your preference; some prefer a stronger floral note.

Easy Substitutions

Almond extract can be used in place of orange blossom water for a different flavor profile. Any type of nut, such as walnuts or almonds, can substitute for pistachios. For a dairy-free version, use a plant-based milk like almond or oat milk.
