Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Puerto Rican Custard Delight.
Step 1
Start by whisking together the cornstarch, salt, sugar, and ground cinnamon in a large saucepan. This blend will create a delightful base for your custard. Next, gently stir in the whole milk, ensuring everything is evenly mixed. Now, place the saucepan over medium-high heat and keep whisking continuously. This is the key to a smooth custard! As you whisk, you'll notice the mixture beginning to thicken. Be patient and keep stirring for about 25 to 30 minutes. It's important to stay attentive during this time, as the custard can easily burn or clump if left unattended. Once it reaches a thick, creamy consistency, remove it from the heat. Remember, the custard will continue to thicken as it cools, so don’t worry if it seems a bit loose at first. Finally, spoon the luscious custard into bowls and serve warm or chilled, depending on your preference. Enjoy this delightful treat that brings a taste of Puerto Rico to your table!
