RECIPE STEPS
1
Pour the milk and the cream into a saucepan, split the vanilla pod and scrape out the seeds.
Add the vanilla pod and seeds into the milk and bring to the boil.
- 300 ml whole milk
- 1 vanilla pod

In a separate bowl, whisk the yolks and the sugar until the mixture turns white.
Gradually pour in the boiling milk, whisking continuously, and return everything to the saucepan.
- 4 egg yolks
- 100 g caster sugar
3
Cook gently until the surface foam disappears and it is thick enough for a finger mark to remain visible on the back of your spatula (around 85°C).
4
Remove the vanilla pod and pour the custard into a bowl.
5
Cover with cling film and leave to chill for 1 to 2 hours in the fridge.
