My neighbor( 22yrs old) has never tasted TAPIOCA! So naturally I had to whip up a batch, and called her over..to taste.... I am pleased to say she loved it! This recipe is from the box of KRAFT MINUTE TAPIOCA. Great for puddings and pies. The box has 2 recipes, This is the fluffy one. I do remember grandma always added tapioca to her fruit pies, to soak up the juices. Back in the 40's!! I am hopeing you will try it, and enjoy this wonderful old recipe. Nancy....11/18/12
