guar pudding

[Guest guest]

I made the guar pudding the other night and decided to

try some pectin along with the guar. I used two cups

of water and added 1 1/2 tsp of guar powder and 1/2

tsp of pectin powder along with the cherry oil,

sucralose, and a drop of red food coloring. I was

disappointed when the pectin did not dissolve like the

guar did. There were funny little particles floating

in the mixture and they tasted funny. I almost threw

the batch out and then decided not to. The next day I

tasted it and found that these funny little particles

had hydrated into delicious tapioca-like morsels. The

texture of the pudding was firmer and I loved the way

it felt in my mouth. I tried it again with pumpkin

flavor and it was great. Glad I did not throw the

first batch away.
