This French term means "white food," and that's a very good description of blancmange. This dessert is like a pudding made from milk and cornstarch, and although it's sometimes pink, it's usually white and somewhat bland.

If corn pudding cooks too quickly, the eggs can curdle and the solids separate from the liquid – resulting in a watery pudding. When this happens, leave pudding in the oven for a few more minutes, then take out and let it sit at room temperature for 3 to 5 minutes.
