Did you know?
- Despite its sweet and creamy nature, the Spanish word pudín shares an ancient linguistic ancestor with the word for 'sausage'.
- In Latin American cuisine, pudín is often served with a caramel glaze, making it closer to a 'flan' than a bowl of English pudding.
- In some Spanish-speaking regions, if you ask for pudín without specifying a flavor, you might be served a much denser, bread-based dessert rather than a creamy one.
