Maja Blanca Recipe

Maja Blanca Recipe

Maja Blanca is a Filipino dessert made from coconut milk, cornstarch, and sugar. Often called Coconut Pudding, this luscious dessert is easy to make and the ingredients are very common.Unknown to many, the original Maja Blanca Recipe does not include corn and milk. In this recipe, I added whole sweet kernel corn and condensed milk for added taste and a more creamy texture.Since Christmas season is just around the corner, this would make a very good holiday dessert especially during potluck Christmas Parties and Noche Buena as well.

Ingredients:

  • 4 cups coconut milk
  • 3/4 cup cornstarch
  • 14 ounces condensed milk
  • 3/4 cup fresh milk
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 15 ounces whole sweet kernel corn
  • 5 tbsp toasted grated coconut

Instructions:

  • Pour the coconut milk in a cooking pot and bring to a boil.
  • Add the sugar, condensed milk, and whole sweet kernel corn then stir until all the ingredients are evenly distributed.
  • Simmer for 8 minutes
  • Combine the milk and cornstarch then whisk until the cornstarch is diluted
  • Pour the fresh milk and cornstarch mixture in the cooking pot and stir thoroughly.
  • Allow to cook while stirring until the mixture reaches your desired thickness
  • Pour the mixture in a serving tray then arrange and flatten the top using a flat tool such as a wooden spatula
  • Allow to cool down then refrigerate for at least 1 hour
  • Garnish with toasted grated coconut (or latik if available)
  • Serve cold. Share and enjoy!

This lemon pudding couldn’t be easier. It’s made with just four ingredients: whipping cream, sugar, lemon zest, and lemon juice.

All you do is warm everything up, then let the pudding set. It’s like magic.

Elegant, simple, and with a velvety texture that is positively dreamy, this lemon pudding is perfect for Easter dinner, Mother’s Day brunch, and everything in between.

No one needs to know it only took you 15 minutes to make.

Easy Lemon Pudding

The recipe is a modern adaptation of a medieval drink called a posset, which was popular from the Middle Ages to the early 19th century. This was a hot milk or cream mixture thickened with acidic wine or cider. It was considered medicinal for treating a cold or flu. Syllabubs, another sweet frothy drink, are closely related.

History lesson over! Lemon posset is fast becoming a trendy dessert, especially in Britain.

The magic is in the thick cream, reduced slightly, and combined with tart lemon juice. The two interact to form an exquisite creamy consistency, especially after you strain out the little bits of zest.

Look through your cupboard for pretty stemmed glasses if you want to be fancy, and make this for your next party!

INGREDIENTS:

  • 2 cups (473ml) heavy whipping cream
  • 2/3 cup (135g) granulated sugar
  • Finely grated zest of 1 lemon
  • 6 tablespoons (89ml) lemon juice
  • 1 cup (about 150g) blueberries, raspberries, sliced strawberries or blackberries, to garnish

METHOD:

1 Warm the cream and sugar: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, stir together the cream, sugar and lemon zest. Bring to a boil. Adjust the heat to a gentle boil, and cook, stirring often, for 5 minutes.

Watch carefully and stir frequently to keep the cream from boiling over.

2 Add the lemon juice and continue to simmer for 5 more minutes. Stir frequently.

3 Take the pan off the heat and let the cream cool for 5 minutes.

4  Strain and chill. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into a 4-cup liquid measuring cup or other container for easy pouring.

Pour into 4 four-ounce ramekins or pretty stemmed glasses.

5 Refrigerate, uncovered, for 2 to 3 hours, or until set. This pudding can also be prepared and refrigerated up to 2 days in advance. Top each glass with berries just before serving.
