Boiled Custard Recipe 1 ingredients

• 2 cups scalded milk
• Yolks of 3 eggs
• 1 tablespoon honey or sugar
• ½ teaspoon vanilla flavor
• A few grains of salt

To prepare this Boiled Custard Recipe 1, first beat the egg yolks slightly, add the salt and the sugar and stir constantly while adding the hot milk, in a slow stream. Cook in a double boiler, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens sufficiently to coat a silver spoon; then remove at once, set into a pan of cold water, add flavor and let cool. If the milk is hot, it will take but a few moments to cook the yolk sufficiently; hence great care should be exercised not to curdle the eggs.
