The ease of the recipe was great and the flavor was acceptable, something easily adaptable to personal prefence. However the texture, consistency or color was no where close to how I remember my grandmother's (traditional) tapioca pudding - soft, creamy & white. This turned out to be very dense, gummy & YELLOW! I actually had to cut pieces for serving! As for color, that, I'm sure, was due to so many eggs (something I will decrease by half or more). I followed the recipe verbatum & will try this recipe again; however next time will play around with the length of the cooking time; tapioca pearls (I used small) to liquid ratio; &/or heat setting (I used High on a 5 qt pot).
