Frequently Asked Questions About Orange water pudding
What is orange water pudding?
Orange water pudding is a Turkish-style, dairy-free pudding made with water, starch and orange flavoring. It sets to a delicate, lightly gelled texture rather than the rich, creamy consistency of a custard.
How do you make orange water pudding?
To make orange water pudding, whisk starch and sugar into cold water, add orange juice, then cook while stirring until thick. Pour it into serving dishes and chill until set; recipes vary in how much juice or zest they use.
Is orange water pudding made with orange juice or orange blossom water?
Orange water pudding is usually flavored with orange juice or zest, not necessarily orange blossom water. The name refers to a water-based pudding; a little orange blossom water can be added for fragrance, but it is optional.
Why is orange water pudding different from orange custard?
Orange water pudding is thickened with starch and made without the milk and eggs commonly used in custard. Its texture is lighter and more jelly-like, while orange custard is typically richer and creamier.
How can you keep orange water pudding from getting lumpy?
For lump-free orange water pudding, mix the starch with cold liquid until smooth before heating it. Stir continuously as it cooks, paying attention to the bottom and corners of the pan where starch can catch.
Why won't my orange water pudding set?
Orange water pudding may stay runny if it has too little starch or has not cooked long enough for the starch to thicken. Bring the mixture to a proper simmer while stirring, then allow it time to chill fully.
What can you serve with orange water pudding?
Orange water pudding pairs well with fresh orange segments, finely grated orange zest or a light dusting of cinnamon. These toppings complement its citrus flavor without masking the delicate pudding.
Can you make orange water pudding ahead of time?
Yes, orange water pudding can be made ahead and chilled in its serving dishes. Cover it once cool to prevent a dry surface, and serve it cold from the refrigerator for the best set and texture.
Can you freeze orange water pudding?
Freezing orange water pudding is not recommended. The starch-set pudding can release water and turn grainy or uneven when thawed, so make it close to serving time and chill it in the refrigerator instead.
Can orange water pudding be made with less sugar?
Yes, you can reduce the sugar in orange water pudding, though the result will taste more tart and the sweetness will depend on the oranges. Taste the mixture before cooking and adjust the sugar to suit your preference.

What is Orange water pudding?
Orange water pudding is an orange-flavoured take on su muhallebisi, a Turkish pudding traditionally thickened with starch and cooked with water; sugar and orange juice or zest give it sweetness and citrus character. It can be made without milk, resulting in a simple, dairy-free dessert.
Served chilled, it has a soft, smooth set and a clean orange flavour. In Turkey, it is often cut into portions for dessert after a meal or enjoyed with tea; it also makes a refreshing finish in warm weather. It is very low in fat and mostly provides carbohydrates. For a lighter version, use less sugar and let finely grated orange zest carry more of the flavour.
