Corn Starch Fruit Pudding

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup Water
• 1/2 cup Cherry juice
• 3 tablespoons Corn starch
• 1/8 teaspoon Salt
• 3 tablespoons Sugar
• 1 large Egg yolk
• 1 large Egg white
• 1/2 cup Cherry juice
• 1/2 cup Water
• 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon Lemon extract
• 1/8 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Sugar
• 1/4 cup Fresh cherries, finely chopped

Instructions

1. 1In a saucepan, mix thoroughly the corn starch, sugar, and salt.
2. 2Gradually add the cold water and then the cherry juice to the corn starch mixture, stirring constantly. Cook over low heat, stirring continuously, until the mixture becomes quite thick, about 5-7 minutes.
3. 3Remove from heat and add the egg yolk, mixing well. Allow to cool slightly.
4. 4In a separate bowl, beat the egg white until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the beaten egg white into the cooled cornstarch mixture. Pour the mixture into a well-moistened custard mold. Allow to stand in the refrigerator for at least half an hour or more to set.
5. 5In a saucepan, mix the flour, salt, and sugar. Add the cherry juice and water slowly, stirring to combine. Cook over medium heat for about 2 minutes, or until the sauce thickens slightly. Stir in the chopped cherries and lemon extract.
6. 6Serve the chilled corn starch pudding with the warm cherry sauce.
