Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Comforting Custard Delight.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C). This will create the perfect environment for your custard to bake beautifully. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, salt, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well combined. Now, gently pour in the warm milk, whisking continuously to ensure everything blends together harmoniously. To achieve a silky texture, strain this mixture through a fine sieve into a 1 1/2-quart round baking dish, leaving any lumps behind. Sprinkle a light dusting of ground nutmeg over the top for that warm, aromatic touch. Next, place your baking dish into a larger pan and carefully pour about an inch of water into the outer pan. This water bath will help the custard cook evenly and prevent it from curdling. Slide the pan into your preheated oven and bake for 55 to 60 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. Once done, let the custard cool to room temperature before transferring it to the fridge to chill. Serve it cold and enjoy the comforting flavors that will surely brighten your day.
