Custard
Method
2. Put the milk and cream into a pan with the sugar and your chosen flavouring. Bring gently up to the boil, then pour onto the egg yolks, whisking constantly.
3. Return the mixture to the pan, set over a very gentle heat. Stir constantly until the custard thickens enough just to coast the back of the spoon and no more. Pull straight off the heat and strain into a cool bowl. Serve hot, warm or cold.
