Transfer to a bowl, cover with water, and soak for 45–60 minutes (they’ll expand and soften).

-
In a medium saucepan, combine milk and ¾ cup sugar.
-
Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
-
Drain soaked tapioca and add to the milk.

Reduce heat to low simmer, stirring frequently, for 15–20 minutes until pearls are tender and mixture thickens slightly.
3. Temper the Eggs
-
In a separate bowl, whisk eggs and remaining 1 cup sugar until smooth.
-
Slowly drizzle about ½ cup of the hot milk mixture into the eggs, whisking constantly to prevent scrambling.
-
Gradually add a little more until the eggs are warmed.

4. Thicken the Pudding
-
Pour the tempered egg mixture back into the saucepan.
-
Cook on low heat, stirring constantly, until the pudding thickens (3–5 minutes). Do not boil.
-
Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract.
5. Chill & Serve
-
Pour into a serving dish or individual cups.
-
Press plastic wrap directly on the surface to prevent a skin from forming.

Serve chilled with your favorite toppings!
Tips for Success
Texture Control – For softer pearls, soak longer; for more chew, reduce soaking time.
Dairy-Free Swap – Use coconut milk for a tropical twist.
Extra Creamy – Stir in 2 tbsp heavy cream at the end for added richness.
Storage
-
Fridge: Keep covered for up to 3 days.
