This is like heaven for lemon lovers! For once I found a recipe I didn't even have to modify. It takes a while to zest the lemons, but after that it's a snap! I made it in the microwave and chilled it for a couple hours and it was amazing.
Lemon Soymilk Pudding
(Makes 8 servings)
6 Tablespoons cornstarch
2 grated lemon, zest of
1 pinch salt
1 cup sugar
1 liter soy milk (4 1/4 cups)
2 lemons, juice of (or more)
1. In a large pot (or microwave-safe container if you want to make it in the microwave, which works very well) mix the cornstarch, the grated lemon zest, salt and sugar.
2. Slowly mix in enough soymilk to make a smooth paste.
3. Then mix in the rest, keeping it smooth.
4. Cook over medium heat, stirring contantly until thickened.
5. Stir in as much lemon juice as you like- I recommend 2 large ones but it may be more or less according to taste and how juicy the lemons are.
6. If making in the microwave, microwave on high for 2 or 3 minutes at a time, stirring well in between times, until thickened and then add the lemon juice.
7. If you object to bits of lemon zest it should be strained before you chill it.
8. Anyone who likes lemon desserts goes nuts for this.

Kree, does this taste like the filling in lemon merangue pie? Or does it taste creamier, like Jello INSTANT lemon pudding?
You are so our Recipe Queen, Girlfriend! Where are all these coming from?!? Keep up the good work, you little chef you.

I conferred with my mom on that one, and we both agreed that it's very creamy, more like Jello. 
As for the recipes, I get almost all of them from Recipezaar . That's the OTHER site I'm addicted to on the net! I find a lot of them by playing a game called Zaar tag, where you have to "tag" one of the recipes posted by the person who's it, which means you'll make and review it within a week. Then someone else tags me, and says they'll make one of my recipes within a week! It's a great way to try things I might not otherwise try, and I've been playing it for about 8 months now so I've really accumulated a lot of great recipes!

What FUN! When you're tagged, you have to make a recipe from the person who tagged you? Do you get a choice of recipes from them? Then do they give everyone a critique of the recipe?
What a gas.

Lol, so many questions! Nope, you just make the recipe you tagged, and you get to choose from any of that person's recipes that haven't been rated yet. Then the person that tags you has to make yours, like you made the other person's! And yes, everyone has to review the recipes they make. It really is a lot of fun, you should come play!

I'm in the mood for pudding but is the acidity level high. Don't like having a sour stomach

What happens if you get something like that one guy got -- "Brawny Broccoli" -- and have to make it -- and you know you can't eat it?

Hmm... this was fine for me, but acidity doesn't bother me as much as it does some people. I don't want to lead you astray, but it seems to me since soymilk, which is very basic, makes up most of the pudding hopefully it would be okay.

You get to choose the recipe you want to make, so you just don't choose ones like that! I admit it, I have to be very selective and pass over a ton of good-looking recipes because they're not safe, but it can be done!

if you increase the amount of lemon zest and decrease the amount of juice, you'll keep the lemon flavor but reduce the acidity.

Hi all
Just stumbled across this, and as a lover of all things lemony and dessert-y I need to make it!
However, I've been looking for cornstarch here in UK supermarkets for ages, and can't find any. I do have cornflour though - does anyone know if that's the same?
Thanks all

Two totally different things. If you can't find corn starch, you can substitute Arrowroot powder. Have you asked an employee to help you find the cornstarch? In the US, the sell it in every grocery store in the baking aisle.

What we in the UK/Australia call cornflour IS what you in the US call cornstarch. Definitely. I know you have a US cornflour but it's not the same as what we call cornflour (which is what you call cornstarch)
Here's a pretty good link which explains common ingredients in all three "languages"
Our Cornflour is used as a thickening agent etc.

..but there are some things that only the people who have to know know, like that one when I was trying to translate things, the key to this post was that Blondie's in the UK, where cornstarch doesn't exist and she would get some very puzzled looks and probably be sent to the laundry aisle for spray on starch!
You are good to respond to so many posts though, and now you know the answer to this question for the next time it's asked

Made this last week - it was a bit hard to judge when it was ready (how 'thickened' is thickened enough? I'm a novice cook so had no idea, and there was no time guideline), but my oh my was it nice!
It was absolutely, absolutely yummy!! I was so impressed, and I'll definitely be making it again

I just made this now it's yummy
I only did half the quantities and plus added some soya cream substitute- only like a tiny bit.
It always amazes me when things like this work it's like one minute it's some powdery stuff and soya milk and the next it's the creamy yogurty texture that tastes yummy - AMAZING!! lol

I was wondering do you think it would be possible to make it a chocolate flavour by adding cocoa, also can you use rice milk instead of soya as I dont tolerate soya that well?
Thanks guys x

You could definitely use rice milk. You could even try chocolate rice milk for the chocolate flavour. Not sure how the cocoa would work but I imagine that one of the recipe goddesses will have some input soon!

FYI -- I've used rice milk before with this recipe and it didn't turn out. The rice milk doesn't thicken like soy milk...
