Title: Large Pearl Tapioca Pudding
Recipe By:
Category: Puddings; TAPIOCA
Main Ingredient:
Cuisine Style:
Yield: 6 Serving
Preparation Time: 0:00
Cooking Time: 0:00

[Amount] [Measure] [Ingredient (or Header)] -- [Preparation]
---------- ------------ ----------------------------------------------
1 cup Large pearl tapioca
1 1/2 tsp Vanilla extract
4 cup Water
1 cup Chopped English walnuts
3 cup Brown sugar
Whipped Cream Topping
1 dash Salt

[Preparation]
This is another unique pudding and a very old recipe. Cooking the
large pearl tapioca slowly for hours in a brown-sugar sauce gives
this dessert an intense flavor. The additon of English walnuts
provides a satisfying crunch. Frequently this pudding was cooked
in the oven or in a double boiler, but get ideal results,
requiring no watching, with a crockpot. Place the tapioca and
water in a crockpot. Soak overnight. Do not drain tapioca. Add
brown sugar and salt and cook for 12 hours on low. Stir once in a
while. The tapioca becomes clear and the texture is gelatinous at
the end of the cooking period. Let cool. Add vanilla, a bit more
salt if needed, and the walnuts. Transfer to a shallow serving
bowl and spread top liberally with Whipped Cream Topping. NOTE:
Large pearl tapioca requires long, slow cooking to become
transparent. And each pearl has a tiny bit of starch in the
middle of it that sometimes never completely cooks up which,
though edible, looks unpleasant. The crockpot is absolutely
perfect for cooking these big pearls--and that little starchy
bead completely disappears.

Check out Thomas Keller's The French Laundry Cookbook.... his oysters and
pearls isn't quite tapioca pudding, but man is it amazing!

Others have given you recipes, so I'll just add that making tapioca
pudding with large-pearl tapioca is a pain: soaking, cooking just right,
and folding in whipped egg whites. The result is delicious IF you do
everything right but I must admit that I've never bought large-pearl
tapioca again.
