Cooking Instructions
- 1
Prepare the ingredients.
- 2
In a saucepan, add the 2 1/2 cups whole milk, cinnamon stick, and the orange and lemon peels. Heat until just about to boil, then remove from heat and cover.
- 3
Separate the egg yolks from the whites. In a bowl, combine the yolks with the 2 1/2 tablespoons sugar. Mix well until smooth, then add the 1/4 cup cornstarch and stir until fully combined.
- 4
Gradually add the reserved milk mixture to the bowl, stirring a little to combine. Pour everything back into the saucepan and start cooking over medium heat.
- 5
Stir constantly (to prevent sticking). When the mixture thickens (about 5 minutes, depending on the heat), the custard is ready.
- 6
Pour the custard into serving dishes. Cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate for about 3 hours. Sprinkle brown sugar on top and caramelize with a kitchen torch. Enjoy!

Spanish Crema Catalana Spanish Crema Catalana
This recipe is quite sweet, but the one my friend made for me in Catalonia was even sweeter. I really like cinnamon sugar, so I committed a sin and changed the recipe around a bit.The cinnamon flavour and zest are essential to this recipe. Add plenty of brown sugar and cook until lovely and crispy. Cook on a high heat from start to finish. The sugar will caramelize very quickly, so to prevent burning it, don't leave it unattended.

Créme Caramel Créme Caramel
Hi!! The heatwave is finally over, hoorayyyy but we have rain on and off during the day. Our basset hound Charlie, who is now 1 year old, was really having a rough time with the heat last week, as we all did but I did my best to keep him cool with those cool collars. If you have not tried them yet, please do they really work!! He is now running around and enjoying his walks and playing with all the other little doggies…:)When it’s hot I like to make different sorts of desserts that are refrigerated instead of always going for Ice Cream. Not that I don’t love Ice Cream!!! I’mein just saying. So, I made this very easy and enjoyable summer dessert called Cremé Caramelé. I do understand that it is not summer all over the world, but it will be at some point, so keep this dessert in mind as a cool off. Buuuttt you can always make this dessert during the winter time, and enjoy eating it with a nice warm cup of Hot Chocolate or a nice big cup of Cappucino or whatever warm drink you enjoy. Foodzesty -

It's hot every day, so I want to eat slightly bitter custard cream. This time I used it in a crepe.Make sure you add the egg yolk after stirring in a small amount of milk. (It will become lumpy if you add it first.) Adjust the cooking time according to your microwave. The finish will vary depending on the type of caramel sauce you use. Recipe by Yukiline cookpad.japan
