Steps:
- Cut gingerroot into 4 pieces and smash with flat side of a knife. In a small heavy saucepan bring half-and-half and gingerroot just to a simmer over moderately low heat, about 10 minutes (do not let boil). While mixture is heating, in a bowl whisk together yolks and sugar until smooth. Add hot half-and-half mixture in a slow stream, whisking, and transfer custard to pan. Cook custard over moderately low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until a thermometer registers 170°F, about 5 minutes (do not let boil). Pour custard through a fine sieve into a clean bowl and cool. (Crème anglaise may be made 3 days ahead and chilled, covered. Bring crème anglaise to room temperature before serving.)

[email protected]I followed the recipe exactly, but my crème anglaise didn't turn out as thick as I expected. Maybe I didn't cook it long enough?

[email protected]This recipe was a disaster! The crème anglaise curdled and I had to throw it all out. I'm not sure what went wrong.

[email protected]The crème anglaise was delicious, but it was a little thick for my liking. I would recommend using a little less cornstarch next time.

[email protected]This crème anglaise was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I would recommend reducing the amount of sugar next time.

[email protected]This crème anglaise was delicious! The ginger flavor was subtle but present, and it paired perfectly with the sweet custard. I served it over pound cake, and it was a hit with my family and friends.
