Preparation

Step 1

Combine tapioca, milk, vanilla bean and seeds, and salt in a medium saucepan, and place over medium heat until steaming, about 3 minutes. Remove and discard vanilla bean.

Combine eggs, sugar, and cream of coconut in a medium bowl, and whisk to combine. Whisking constantly, slowly add half of milk mixture. Return to pot, and stir to combine. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until thick and puddinglike, about 7 minutes. Spoon pudding into four serving dishes, and set aside until ready to serve.Top with grapes and lime zest. This dish can be served warm or at room temperature, but the grapes and lime
zest should be added just before serving.
