Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 6

500 grams whole milk (2 cups)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract/paste (or 1 vanilla pod*)
½ tablespoon finely grated lemon zest (unwaxed lemon)
5 large egg yolks (room temperature)
120 grams sugar (½ cup)
40 grams rice flour or cornstarch/cornflour (⅓ cup )

Steps:

  • Place a medium size glass bowl in the freezer to chill.
  • In a small saucepan, heat milk with the vanilla and lemon zest just till you see steam rising, then remove from the heat and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, whisk the yolks and sugar, add rice flour and whisk till smooth and thick.
  • Pour the warmed milk slowly into the egg mixture**, stirring constantly. Once fully combined, place the saucepan on medium-low heat. Keep stirring till it thickens (around 5 minutes), ensuring it doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan, then remove from the heat.
  • Pour the custard into the chilled bowl and whisk quickly to cool it down. Place plastic film directly over the custard to prevent a skin from forming and leave on the counter to cool. Once cool, place in the fridge and use within 2 days.
