Instructions

  1. Put all the ingredients in a blender or food processer and blend until completely combined.*
  2. Pour the mixture into a small to medium saucepan with a heavy bottom and heat over medium heat, stirring constantly with a silicone spoonula.
  3. Gradually heat the mixture and bring it up to 180F, where it will have thickened slightly. The creme anglaise should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, leaving a clear trail when you run your finger through it. To test the consistency, dip a spoon into the sauce, then run your finger across the back of the spoon. If the line remains intact without the sauce running together, it is ready. Note: do not allow the custard to boil.
  4. Once the sauce has thickened, remove from the heat and strain through a fine mesh strainer to remove any stray lumps.
  5. Chill the sauce, either over ice, or in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

Notes

  • If you don't have a blender or food processor you can whisk everything together really well. I would start with the yolks and sugar, then whisk in the cream.
