Question: When making homemade vanilla pudding, is it OK to use soy or rice milk instead of regular!?
Answers:
You usually need to add some cornstarch to the soy milk for it to thicken up enough to be able to have the same consistency as instant pudding!. There is some sort of protein or enzyme in cows milk that thickens things up and soy milk lacks this!. Therefore, a little cornstarch (little!.!.because it can make your pudding taste like cornstarch!.!.)really does help to thicken up the pudding!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Certainly !!! That's how we try new things in the kitchen!. I've experimented and you should have no problem!. Just make sure to double your pans up when boiling your soy or rice milk!. Put water in one pan on the stove top and then place an empty pan into that one with room for the steam to escape!. Cook slowly until it boils and then pour into your dessert dishes and chill!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I tried using soy milk and it didn't thicken for me,however I only tried it once-it could have been a fluke thing,maybe I didn't cook it quite long enough or something!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

yes -you may find that your pudding is drinkable!! my daughter had no idea that pudding could be eaten with a spoon till she was 5 yrs old!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
