INGREDIENTS
- 5 EGGS
- 1 CUP SUGAR
- 1 LITRE MILK
- ½ TEASPOON VANILLA ESSENCE
SYRUP
- 1 CUP SUGAR
PREPARATION
Prepare the syrup: cook sugar and ¼ cup of water, over low heat, until lightly brown. Pour over a rectangular 10 cm x 20 cm baking dish; allow to cool. In a bowl, mix the eggs with the sugar. Add milk and vanilla essence. Transfer to the caramelized baking dish. Bake in water bath in the oven at 180°C for 1h20. To check if it is ready, move the dish to see if the pudding is set. Remove from the oven and slide a slim knife through the edges to detach. Unmold immediately. (Or let it cool, take to the fridge and, before serving, put the pudding over the heat to melt the caramel.)
IN DETAIL
Unbeatable in each and every household, milk pudding is a top classic. We are aware that condensed milk pudding – which recipe was printed on the condensed milk can – has become much more popular than this classic version. But we decided to register both on this book, so no one will feel uncovered!
