Pour 1 gallon of whole milk into a large pot and bring it to a boil on high heat

Once boiling, reduce heat to medium low and remove the skin that forms on the surface with a fork

Continue removing the skin every 2 to 3 minutes for about 5 hours or until it turns a caramel color

In a separate bowl, beat a few egg yolks with a little bit of water using a handheld mixer or blender until pale yellow

In a medium pot, add water and white granulated sugar to make a simple syrup, bringing it to a boil and simmering until the sugar dissolves

Gradually add the milk skin to the egg yolks

Bring the mixture to a boil and once boiling, it's done

Pour the pudding into a baking dish or separate containers

Decorate with a few raisins if desired

Let cool completely, then cover and refrigerate for a few hours before serving
