It came out very tasty, but it would not thicken using the double boiler. I cooked the sugar/corn starch/salt/water mixture in the double boiler for half an hour and it still wouldn't thicken! I got mad and put it in a regular pot on the stove and it finally thickened up and I continued with the recipe. So don't fret if it won't thicken. Just skip the double boiler! It tastes great with just the right amount of lemon flavor for me. Read More
I added 2 teaspoons of lemon extract while whisking in the butter and lemon juice which made it taste a lot better. The reason I gave it 2 stars is because I made it taste good but I had to alter the recipe to make that so. Also it came out very soupy. Read More

This is good, but the flavor of the egg yolks peaked through. I made half the recipe and added the zest of one lemon which I'm glad that I did. So if you like a strong lemon flavor like I do, I recommend adding the lemon zest. Read More
I followed the recipe and it was perfect and true to direction. Only I didn’t have a double boiler and put a stainless steel mixing bowl over a pot of water. Oh. So happy as it is soooo tasty and just like my mother made when I was a kid. Hadn’t had it since and That was a long time ago Read More
The lemon pudding was phenomenal, but there were a few flaws on the way. I used tapioca starch instead of corn starch, the eggs I added appeared to have cooked into little egg bits (I was a bit grossed out at the thought), then the pudding's consistency was a little too thick. Luckily, pouring in a little more water to the final product made normal and absolutely delicious!
If you experience the problems I did, perhaps mixing the sugar with the egg first could help as done in other puddings. Maybe letting the pot cool a bit first before adding the egg?
But overall, this pudding is completely worth making! Read More
has a nice lemon taste I added the zest of 3 lemons .I had the same problem not getting thick in a double boiler after 30 mins I cooked on the burner like most puddings. came out great just keep wicking to keep from burning on the bottom Read More
I read all the reviews first! I did not use a double boiler just stirred continually. Pudding did thicken up added lemon zest of 2 lemons which I am glad I did. Pudding was good but do not plan on making it again. Read More
