FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
How long does dry pistachio pudding mix last?
Unopened, it can last 12-24 months in a cool, dry place. Check the 'best by' date for optimal flavor.
Can I use almond or soy milk with instant pudding?
Instant pudding often fails to set properly with non-dairy milks. If using them, reduce the liquid amount by 25% or use 'cook and serve' variety instead.
Is instant pistachio pudding mix gluten-free?
Most brands use cornstarch and are naturally gluten-free, but always check the label for cross-contamination warnings or modified food starch sources.
Why didn't my pudding set?
This usually happens if the milk wasn't cold enough, too much liquid was used, or it wasn't whisked long enough to activate the thickeners.
Can I freeze prepared pistachio pudding?
Yes, it can be frozen into popsicles, though the texture may become slightly icy compared to commercial ice cream.
What can I substitute for pistachio pudding mix?
You can use vanilla instant pudding mix and add 1/4 teaspoon of almond extract and a drop of green food coloring.
Does it contain real pistachios?
Most instant mixes contain very small amounts of crushed pistachios or just artificial flavoring and coloring; check the ingredient list for 'pistachios'.
How do I make the pudding thicker?
Use slightly less milk than the package calls for, or whisk in a tablespoon of heavy cream.
