Ingredients
- 1½ cup milk whole
- 1 pod vanilla
- 2 tablespoons caster sugar
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 egg yolk
- 1 pinch fleur de sel (or salt)
Equipment
- Stand mixer
Instructions
- Add the milk into a non-stick pan.
- Split the vanilla pod lengthwise and scrape the seeds. Add them to the milk with the empty pod.
- Bring the milk to a boil, then simmer over low heat for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Meanwhile, in the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the caster sugar, cornstarch, egg yolks and salt, and beat for 3 minutes.
- After 10 minutes of cooking the milk, remove the empty vanilla pod from the pan and incorporate a few tablespoons of the boiling milk into the egg mixture.
- Then gently add the egg mixture to the milk while beating. Increase the heat slightly and, while stirring, let thicken until a liquid cream forms (between 1 and 2 minutes). Do not stir too long, as the cream continues to thicken after it has cooled.
- Then turn off the heat, pour the cream into a bowl and let cool slightly.
Notes
- The cream is delicious as is, lukewarm. It is also possible to let it cool and keep it in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 days by covering it with plastic wrap touching the entire surface of the custard so it doesn't form a crust.
