Custard is a traditional dessert that we have all eaten on occasion, but do we know how to prepare it? Definitely the envelopes with preparation to make custard have done a lot of damage to homemade custard, so we show you how to make them at home easily so that we can all savor them as healthily as possible.
These custards can not only be tasted as classically with cinnamon and a cookie, we can also use them as a side to a dessert. We can bathe a spongy sponge cake with custard or use this cream as a "hot soup" for a puff pastry dessert…. what imagination to power!
- Yolks 4
- ½ liter of milk
- 1 sachet or two teaspoons of vanilla sugar
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1 teaspoon of cinnamon powder
- 5 tablespoons white sugar
- 1 tablespoon of cornstarch
- Let's get started! Boil the milk for 5 minutes together with the cinnamon stick. Remove.
- In a large bowl, beat the egg yolks and add the white sugar and vanilla.
- Add the cornstarch, beat very well so that the mixture is well homogeneous
- Add the milk and beat again.
- Put the custard mixture in a saucepan over low heat and stir constantly. We will see how little by little our custards thicken, it is important that it does not boil, so over low heat and stirring a lot.
- We already have our custard ready! Pour it into the mold or source that you like the most, sprinkle a little cinnamon and that's it!
