Equipment

Notes

  • The equipment section above includes affiliate links to things I use often in my kitchen and recommend.
  • Stir the pudding 1-2 times while it's chilling if possible (depending on what time you put it in the fridge) to prevent the seeds from sinking to the bottom of the bowl. 
  • If you don't use/like coconut milk, substitute another one but just know that the flavor profile will be a bit different.
