My Kitchen : Caramel Custard Recipe (71st Serv)


Certainly! Here's a detailed recipe for making delicious Caramel Custard:
Ingredients:

For the Caramel:
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup water

For the Custard:
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups whole milk

Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare the Caramel

1. Begin by preparing the caramel. In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, add 1 cup of granulated sugar and 1/4 cup of water.
2. Heat the sugar and water mixture over medium heat. Do not stir but gently swirl the pan occasionally to ensure even caramelization.
3. As the mixture heats, it will start to turn golden brown. Continue to swirl the pan until the caramel reaches a deep amber color.
4. Quickly pour the caramel into the bottom of a 1.5 to 2-quart ovenproof dish or individual ramekins. 
Slant the dish or ramekins to cover the base with the caramel equitably. Be careful as the caramel is extremely hot.

Step 2: Prepare the Custard Mixture

5. In a separate bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them until well beaten.
6. Add 1/2 cup of granulated sugar and continue to whisk until the mixture is smooth and the sugar is dissolved.
7. Stir in the vanilla extract.
8. Heat 2 cups of whole milk in a saucepan over medium heat until it's just about to simmer. Do not let it boil.
9. Gradually pour the hot milk into the egg-sugar mixture, whisking continuously. This step is essential to prevent the eggs from curdling.
10. Once the milk and egg mixture are well combined, strain it through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any lumps.


Step 3: Fill the Dish and Bake

11. Carefully pour the custard mixture over the caramel layer in the dish or ramekins.
12. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
13. Place the filled dish or ramekins in a larger ovenproof pan or baking dish. Create a water bath by adding hot water to the larger pan until it comes halfway up the sides of the custard dish or ramekins.
14. Cover the larger pan with aluminum foil.
15. Carefully place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 45-50 minutes for individual ramekins or 60-70 minutes for a larger dish.
16. The custard is done when it's set around the edges but still slightly jiggly in the center. To check, insert a knife into the center; it should come out mostly clean.
17. Remove the custard from the water bath and let it cool to room temperature.

Step 4: Chill and Serve

18. Once the caramel custard has cooled, cover it with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow it to set completely.
19. To serve, run a knife around the edge of the dish or ramekins to loosen the custard. Place a serving plate on top of the dish or ramekin and invert it quickly to release the caramel custard.
20. The caramel will flow over the custard, creating a beautiful presentation.
21. Slice and serve your delicious caramel custard chilled, garnishing with a mint sprig of fresh berries if desired.

Enjoy your homemade caramel custard, a delightful dessert with its silky-smooth custard and rich caramel topping!
