what is the diference between custard and pudding?

Answer 1

Pudding is a *sweet* dessert, usually containing flour or a cereal product, that has been boiled, steamed, or baked.

A custard is a dish consisting of milk, eggs, flavoring, *and sometimes sugar*, boiled or baked until set.

Answer 2

The older puddings are foods that are presented in a solid mass formed by the amalgamation of various ingredients with a binder, which might include batter (as in Yorkshire pudding), blood (black pudding), eggs (bread pudding), or a mixture of suet and flour or some other cereal (plum pudding). These kinds of puddings can be either baked, steamed, or boiled. This type of pudding is still common in various places, especially the British Isles, and can be either a main-course dish or a dessert.

The newer type of pudding is almost exclusively a dessert-type dish. The usual form is for milk with sugar and other added ingredients to be solidified by means of some gelling or structural agent, including cornstarch, gelatin, eggs, tapioca (cassava), and other starches.Forms of these include custard and blanc-mange.

The difference to the British is we can put custard onto pudding or pie
