Total Time

80 min

2 inches fresh ginger root, peeled

Zest and juice of 1 lemon

½ cup sugar

2 tablespoons cornstarch

Pinch of kosher salt

1 tablespoon unsalted butter or margarine

Grate the ginger into a small bowl. Add the lemon zest and juice and set aside.
Whisk the sugar, cornstarch, and salt together in a medium saucepan. Add the LACTAID® Lactose-Free Whole Milk and whisk to combine. Bring the ingredients to a simmer over medium-high heat while whisking constantly until the mixture is thick and starts to bubble, 6 to 8 minutes.
Turn off the heat and use a wooden spoon to stir in the ginger-lemon juice mixture and the butter, slowly stirring until the butter is completely melted. Pour the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve and into a medium bowl.
Cool for 10 minutes before covering flush with plastic wrap and refrigerating (at this point you can also divide the pudding into 4 dessert bowls and cover each with plastic wrap). Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
