Tapioca is quite confusing and is little enjoyed by the younger generation now, which is a complete shame. How many of you remember growing up with Mom’s or Grammy’s tapioca? This recipe for Strawberries and Cream Tapioca will take you back in time.
Tapioca is marketed in several forms, with each company portraying their product in different manners. To put this in a nutshell: minute, quick cooking and instant are all the same.
I use minute tapioca in this “best of the best” strawberry pudding. There is also pearl tapioca, which comes in small and large pearls. These can be substituted in this recipe as well by simply doubling the amount of tapioca and adding 1 additional egg.
Cook as directed below, and you will have a treat even hesitant children will love.
