- Use fresh lemons for the best flavor. Bottled lemon juice won't give you the same bright, citrusy taste.
- Don't overbeat the eggs and cream mixture. Overbeating can make the flan tough.
- Bake the flan in a water bath to prevent it from cracking.
- Let the flan cool completely before serving. This will help it to set properly.
- Serve the flan with fresh fruit compote. The sweetness of the fruit will complement the tartness of the flan.
