Marron Custard

I wanted to make custard cream using seasonal sweet chestnuts.
This cream hardens when cooled, so stop microwaving while you think it still needs a bit more cooking.
You can also make this in a sauce pan.
I used sweet chestnut paste, but you can use leftover kuri kinton from your New Year's osechi. Or be more bold and use different kinds of red bean paste instead. Recipe by Makunouchi. (Yields about 300 g of custard cream)

Caramel Custard Caramel Custard
I wanted to make a caramel flavoured custard for cakes. If you mix this cream with whipped cream, it will be vary tasty. "Urufuwan's"is cooked with just with plain flour and butter, so you could adjust the flavors later. You could use it for cooking or baking like this.This is a light custard. If you prefer it richer, replace some of the milk for heavy cream, or add 2 egg yolks.If you want to use this for filling buns, this may taste bland. Cook the caramel for longer and increase the amount of sugar. This cream is still quite runny after its cooled. If you want a stiffer custard, add more white sauce roux or decrease the amount of milk to find the thickness you like. Recipe by SALASA cookpad.japan -
