Steps
- 1
Prepare a steam bath: Use a large, heavy pot (e.g. Le Creuse/Staub) or a deep and heavy pan with a lid big enough to fit the 4 pudding glasses/ramekins. Fill it with enough water so that the water reaches about halfway up the glasses/ramekins. (Measure it with them in the pan or pot if needed). Bring the water to a simmer while you make the pudding mixture.
- 2
In a medium bowl, beat the eggs, then whisk in the milk, sugar, salt, and vanilla.
- 3
If using caramel or syrup, put about 1/2 tsp in the bottom of each pudding glass or ramekin.
- 4
Evenly fill each glass or ramekin with the pudding liquid.
- 5
Once the steam bath is simmering, lay a paper towel down in the water (to keep the pudding cups from moving). Gently place the pudding cups into the water and cover it with the lid. Bring back to a simmer if needed, but make sure its not boiling vigorously or the pudding will over cook. Let the pudding steam for 3 minutes.
- 6
After 3 minutes, turn off the heat and let the pudding sit in the pan or pot for 20 minutes without removing the lid.
- 7
After 20 minutes, remove the lid and check that the pudding has properly cooked through: it should be slightly jiggly but not liquidy. If it seems too soft, put the lid back on and let them sit for a few more minutes until done. When finished, remove the pudding cups and let them cool down.

Cover each with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator until ready to eat.
