CRèME ANGLAISE (CLASSIC VANILLA CUSTARD SAUCE)

Steps:

• Drizzle over cakes, pies, fruit tarts, or ice cream and enjoy.

VANILLA CUSTARD SAUCE

Steps:

• Prepare your bowls. You want to place a fine-mesh sieve over a medium metal bowl. And then fill a large bowl with ice water. Set them aside.
• Combine your wet ingredients. In a medium bowl, whisk together the sugar, egg yolks, and salt.
• Heat milk and cream. You want to heat the milk and cream over medium heat until steaming. Do not let it boil.
• Add heated milk/cream to egg mixture. Add the heated milk/cream to the egg mixture gradually, so as not to scramble the eggs. Return the mixture to the saucepan, and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon and holds a trail when you drag your finger through it, about 10 to 20 minutes.
• Strain the custard. Strain the custard through the sieve. And place that bowl of strained custard into the bowl of ice water and whisk until the mixture is about 70F. Add vanilla. Loosely cover it and refrigerate the custard until it's chilled (about 3 to 4 hours).

CREME ANGLAISE ( VANILLA CUSTARD SAUCE)

Steps:

• Pour the milk and cream into to medium-sized saucepan.
• If using vanilla bean, scrape the seeds into the pan and then add the bean itself.
• Heat the milk until bubbles appear around the edge.
• Remove the pan from the heat and set aside for 15 minutes to let the milk absorb the vanilla.
• Remove and discard the bean.
• Beat the egg yolks with the sugar and vanilla extract, if using, until light and foamy, about 3 minutes.
• Starting with a few tablespoons, very gradually stir in the hot milk.
• Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until the custard starts to thicken slightly.
• Be very careful not to let the custard come to a boil or it will curdle.
• Allow the custard to cool completely and refrigerate.
• Variation: Flavor your custard with the grated zest of 1/2 lemon or orange instead of the vanilla.
• Or add a TBS or so of Grand Marnier, kirsch, or Kahlua to the finish custard.

CREME ANGLAISE (VANILLA CUSTARD SAUCE)

Steps:

• In a 2-quart heavy saucepan bring 2 cups of the milk, 2 tablespoons of the sugar, and the scraped vanilla bean to a boil over medium heat.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar. Slowly pour 1 cup of the hot milk mixture, whisking constantly, into the egg yolk-sugar mixture. (Do not pour the entire yolk-sugar mixture into the boiling milk mixture, as it will curdle the eggs.) Whisk in the remaining milk. Pour the milk-yolk mixture into the saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture coats the back of a spoon. Do not boil.
• Remove from the heat and stir in the rum. Strain the mixture through a fine wire sieve into a heat--proof bowl. Place the sauce in an ice bath. When cool, transfer the sauce to a bowl. Cover the surface with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator, until ready to use. Sauce will keep in the refrigerator for 4 to 5 days if well sealed.

VANILLA CUSTARD SAUCE (CREME ANGLAISE)

Steps:

• In a saucepan, combine the milk and vanilla bean and bring just to a boil. Remove from the heat, cover and allow to sit 10 minutes. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together the yolks, sugar and salt until thick and light-colored, and set aside.
• Discard the vanilla bean and very slowly whisk the hot milk into the yolk mixture. Return the mixture to the saucepan, set over medium-low heat and cook, stirring constantly, until the custard thickens just enough to coat the back of the spoon, about 10 minutes. (Do not overcook or the custard will curdle.)
• Immediately remove from the heat and strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl. Serve warm or chilled. (If necessary, rewarm the sauce in the top of a double boiler set over barely simmering water.)
