Cooking Instructions

15 minutes
  1. 1

    Pour about 1 cup of milk into a bowl and add the cornstarch. Stir until the cornstarch is completely dissolved.

  2. 2

    Add the 8 egg yolks and the sugar. Whisk well until everything is fully combined.

  3. 3

    In a wide saucepan over low heat, warm the remaining milk. Add the cinnamon stick and lemon peel.

  4. 4

    When the milk starts to boil, remove it from the heat and take out the cinnamon stick and lemon peel.

  5. 5

    Add the egg and sugar mixture to the milk. Stir to combine.

  6. 6

    Return the saucepan to the lowest heat. Keep whisking constantly so it doesn't stick, until it starts to boil again and thickens.

  7. 7

    Once it boils, remove from the heat and pour the custard into individual clay dishes or a serving dish. Let it cool.

  8. 8

    When ready to serve, sprinkle sugar on top and caramelize it with a kitchen torch or a hot iron until the sugar forms a crisp, caramelized layer.

  9. 9
