Custard in Monsieur Cuisine Connect

Ingredients

• 1 Vanilla pod (Split lengthwise; scrape out the seeds and use both the pod and the seeds. The author replaced it with vanilla sugar in her preparation, but the guided recipe calls for a pod.)
• 2 Large egg yolks
• Salt (A pinch)
• 500 ml Whole milk (The author used whole milk; the guided recipe specifies fresh milk.)
• 60 g Sugar
• 40 g Cornstarch (Corn starch)

Steps

1. 1

   Split the vanilla pod lengthwise and scrape out the seeds. Place the pod and seeds, the two egg yolks, and a pinch of salt in the food processor bowl.

2. 2

   Pour 500 ml of whole milk into the bowl.

3. 3

   Add the sugar.

4. 4

   Add the cornstarch.

5. 5

   Insert the measuring cup and set the appliance to 8 minutes, speed 3, and a temperature of 100 °C. Allow the program to finish.

6. 6

   Transfer the custard to a serving dish, removing the vanilla pod and straining it if necessary.

7. 7

   Serve warm or chilled. The author also serves it with a Maria-style biscuit and a little cinnamon.

Notes

The author replaced the vanilla pod with 1 level tsp of vanilla sugar (the amount used in her demonstration; it is not included among the quantities in the guided recipe). She also set the egg whites aside for another use. She noted that the custard is thick and may thicken further when refrigerated; no specific chilling time is provided.
