Ingredients

  • 500 ml. of whole milk

How To Make It

Step 1: We begin the preparation of our egg flan, for this, in a pot at medium low temperature, add the 4 tablespoons of sugar, the three tablespoons of water and let it cook until it takes a golden color (as I show you in the video, be careful with the temperature, it should not be too high because it could burn the caramel) when we have the caramel ready, remove it from the heat and we will pour it into the container where we will prepare our flan, let it cool.

Preguntas y respuestas

What do you mean by bain-marie?

The bain-marie consists of placing the container with the flan mixture in another larger container with hot water, thus maintaining a constant temperature for slow and uniform cooking.

Is it important that the flan is at room temperature before refrigerating it?

Yes, since sudden changes in temperature can affect the texture of the flan.

Can brown sugar be used for the caramel?

Yes, but the flavor and color will be slightly different.
