Cream Of Wheat Pudding
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup water
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup cream of wheat (2 1/2 minute variety)
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 egg yolk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- grated nutmeg
- Bring the milk, water, and salt to a boil, then immediately reduce to a simmer. Whisk in the Cream of Wheat, whisking as you add it bit by bit. Turn the heat very low and let it simmer for about two minutes or until thickened.
- While it's simmering, whisk the sugar and egg yolk together in a small bowl, along with about a tablespoon of water to thin it. When the Cream of Wheat has thickened, put a couple big spoonfuls in the bowl with the egg yolk and whisk to temper the egg. Whisk the egg back into the pot of Cream of Wheat. Continue cooking on low heat for another couple minutes. Do not let it boil.
- Stir in the vanilla and a little grated nutmeg and serve promptly. If you're feeling indulgent, top with a splash of milk and a small pat of butter.
