Quick And Easy Custard Recipes

QUICK AND EASY CUSTARD

Steps:

• Add the milk and cream and the vanilla pod (not extract yet) to a large saucepan and bring to a simmer slowly. once simmering take out the pod.
• Mix the yolks, cornflour and sugar in a large bowl until they are well mixed. into this slowly add the simmering milk and cream mix making sure to mix well all the time.
• Return all the mix back to the pan (add extract now if using that rather than pods) and use a wooden spoon to mix over a low heat until the custard begins to thicken, check to see if it is coating the back of the spoon to do this.
• You can either serve right away or it can be stored in the fridge and warmed later but you will want to cover the top with something so that you don't get a skin over the top. This can be eaten warm or cold.

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, salt, and sugar.
• Divide the custard mixture evenly among the custard cups.
• Fill the pan with hot water to a depth almost even to the top of the custard cups. Sprinkle each serving with nutmeg.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 55 minutes (depending on the depth of the baking dish), or until the custard is set. A knife inserted in the center should come out clean, and the custard should still have a slight jiggle in the center.
