This is a home-made replacement for the instant pistachio pudding mixes found in a number of American recipes. You must use modified cornstarch in this recipe as this is cornstarch that's already been heated to activate it. As a result you do not need to heat to make it thicken (this way it can be used in cake recipes etc).

Ingredients:

45g dried milk powder
60g ground pistachio nuts
100g sugar
45g Instant Clear Jel (modified cornstarch)
1/4 tsp salt

Method:

Combine all the dry ingredients and mix thorughly. Store in an air-tight tin or jar until needed.

To use, take 1 batch of the puddig mix, add 500ml cold milk and 1/4 tsp vanilla extract. Use a blender or hand mixer to combine thoroughly.
