Directions: |
Directions:1. For caramel topping - heat sugar and water in a skillet stirring constantly until sugar melts and turns golden. It will completely harden before it starts to caramelize - don't let it burn.
2. Pour caramel into a molded metal dish or into custard cups - Swirl caramel around bottom and sides until completely covered. USE GLOVES - pan will get very HOT.
3. FOR CUSTARD - Scald milk - don't boil. Heat just until white film develops and it starts to bubble around rim.
4. In a separate bowl - beat eggs, beat in sugar, salt and vanilla. I use a whisk. Gradually beat in scalded milk a little at a time - you don't want to cook the egg mixture.
5. Strain mixture into caramel covered dish or custard cups. If there is any foam on the top - remove it with a spoon.
6. Place dish or custard cups into a square aluminum pan - fill pan with water at least 1-2 inches high.
7. Bake 325° - 45 minutes for custard cups - 1-1/2 hours for dish
8. Remove from oven and completely cool down - refrigerate overnight.
9. When ready to serve - loosen sides with butter knife or spatula - place large plate over dish - invert quickly - shake mold until you hear flan dislocate from mold.
