Step-by-Step Instructions
1. In a medium saucepan, combine the milk, sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Whisk until the sugar and cornstarch are dissolved.
2. Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and comes to a boil. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks. Gradually add a small amount of the hot milk mixture to the egg yolks, whisking constantly. This will temper the eggs and prevent them from curdling.
4. Slowly pour the tempered egg mixture back into the saucepan, whisking constantly.
5. Continue cooking the pudding, stirring constantly, until it reaches a thick consistency. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
