GRANDMOTHER'S BOILED CUSTARD
This recipe has been in our family for at least 4 generations and is an absolute 'must' at Thanksgiving and Christmas. It's so sinfully rich that you'll want to serve small amounts in stemmed goblets. It's also a fab base for eggnog during the holidays and for banana pudding all year long! The secret is to be patient and pay close attention so that it doesn't overcook.

Steps:
- Break eggs into the top of a double-boiler and beat well with an electric mixer.
- Measure sugar and cornstarch into a small mixing bowl, stirring well to combine.
- Add sugar mixture, 4 cups of milk and pinch of salt to beaten eggs.
- Cook mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly; adjust heat if necessary so that water simmers constantly but does not reach a hard boil.
- Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until mixture turns an even, golden color and begins to thicken slightly (approximately 20 minutes).
- Remove top of double-boiler from heat immediately and stir in vanilla extract.
- Allow custard to cool slightly, and then check the consistency.
- If it is too thick, you may use as much as one additional cup of milk to thin it without compromising the texture or flavor (cold is fine-- no need to heat it first).
- If any solid'pips' have formed, pour custard through a mesh strainer to remove.
- (That sometimes happens if the heat gets a little too high. Won't hurt you, but they're not very appealing.) This may be served warm or cold, but we much prefer it chilled.

Steps:
- Heat 1 1/2 cups of the milk in a double boiler until a skim forms (just before boiling) on the top of the milk.
- Sift together the sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a mixing bowl. Stir in the remaining 1/2 cup milk.
- Beat the eggs in a small bowl. Whisking constantly, slowly stream 1/4 cup hot milk into the eggs.
- Slowly pour the egg-milk mixture back into the double boiler, whisking constantly to prevent lumps. Stir in the sugar mixture and continue cooking the custard until it thickens, about 15 minutes, stirring constantly (see Note). Stir in the vanilla.
- From Gwen
- Don't be turned off by the term custard. This is delicious served cold.
- Note
- Combining hot milk and eggs is a delicate process, and lumps may appear even if you are very careful. If lumps do appear, strain the custard through a fine sieve.

BOILED CUSTARD
This recipe is my mother's. Someone in one of my groups wanted a boiled custard recipe and in going thru her recipes I found one in her own writing. She loved boiled custard at Christmas in one of her pretty crystal glasses topped with real whipped cream. As you can see, this is a very old recipe and I was so glad to find it. ...

Steps:
- 1. Heat in top of double boiler 1 qt. sweet milk. Slightly beat 4 whole eggs. Add to the eggs 1/2 cup sugar, 1/8 tsp. salt. Beat eggs again & spoon a little hot milk into the eggs and stir well then add the eggs to hot milk stirring constantly until mixture thickens enough to coat a spoon. Remove from heat and place in a pan of cold water stirring constantly for a minute or two. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla & continue to cool. If custard has a tendancy to curdle, beat with egg beater until smooth again. NOTE: She only used whole milk, not 2%, etc. Also, place the pan you cooked it in in the cold water, don't pour mixture into cold water.
OLD FASHION SOUTHERN BOILED CUSTARD
I have had this recipe for years. I make it every Christmas and give it to my neighbors as gifts. It is always a big hit. I use a candy thermometer to help judge when milk is scalded and when the custard is done.

SOUTHERN BOILED CUSTARD
A wonderful winter beverage that is part custard, and part heaven. Don't be afraid to try this recipe using almond or rum flavoring instead of the traditional vanilla extract.
