Where to find ingredients

Preparation method
- Preheat the oven to the highest temperature
- Place a baking pan with about two fingers of cold water inside the oven
- Mix the caramel sugar with the water in a saucepan and cook over low heat until dissolved
- Avoid stirring the caramel with a spoon after cooking begins
- Remove the caramel from the heat as soon as it reaches a dark golden hue
- Distribute the caramel evenly throughout the pudding mold, including the central cone, and set aside
- Beat the eggs with the sugar in a blender for about 5 minutes until a light and voluminous mixture is obtained
- Add the all-purpose flour gradually, spoonful by spoonful, while the blender is running
- Incorporate the boiling milk little by little and continue beating the mixture for another 2 minutes
- Pour the liquid mixture into the caramelized mold
- Place the mold with the pudding inside the baking pan with water, which will already be boiling in the oven
- Bake for a period between 50 minutes and one hour until the surface is well browned
- Perform the toothpick or knife test to check if it's done
- when inserted, it should come out clean
- Unmold the pudding while still hot to prevent the caramel from hardening and to facilitate removal from the mold
Observations
This pudding has a firmer texture than versions made with condensed milk. The secret to a perfect unmolding is to remove it from the pan while it's still warm, ensuring the caramel stays fluid and the dessert doesn't dry out.
