i made grannie's grapenut custard today. it tasted delicious, but it was watery in the bottom. i used skim milk, not whole. do you think that's the reason?

I dont know if that is the reason..but I do know, that one time I made pudding with skim milk, and it was really a disaster....

Chrissy.. absolute must.. Whole milk is best.. You can get away with 2%, but I rarely use it.. And beat those eggs like crazy..till thick and lemony colored.. (I use just a tad more grapenuts too, but not much, and stir a couple time before it's set.);) I use whole milk in most things.. I don't like skimmed or 1% for custards or Escalloped Potatoes and lots of other things.. Won't come out right, ever..
