  1. STEP 1

    STEP 1

    How to make custard with milk and starch? Prepare the necessary ingredients for this. For the cream, you can use milk of any fat content. You can use any starch: potato, corn.

  2. STEP 2

    STEP 2

    Pour the milk into a small saucepan or ladle and place on the fire. Add sugar and stir until it dissolves. Bring milk and sugar to a boil.

  3. STEP 3

    STEP 3

    Divide the eggs into whites and yolks. We don't need squirrels. Place the yolks in a separate bowl and mix with starch. Add 2-3 tablespoons of milk from the total amount so that the starch is completely mixed. Add a pinch of vanillin for flavor.

  4. STEP 4

    STEP 4

    Pour hot milk in a thin stream into the yolks and mix everything at once. You can use a mixer for this.

  5. STEP 5

    STEP 5

    Return the entire creamy mixture to the heat. Stirring constantly, heat to a boil. In this case, the mass will thicken. Remove the thickened cream from the heat and use a mixer to achieve a uniform consistency.

  6. STEP 6

    STEP 6

    Cover the finished cream with film or a lid and leave to cool. As it cools, the cream will become even thicker. The cooled cream can be mixed again with a mixer. Use ready-made cream for layering a cake, for filling cakes, or simply as a dessert. If you want a more stable cream, then after cooling, you can add soft butter to it. But at the same time the cream will become more fatty. Enjoy your treat!

I prepared custard with milk and starch as a soak for the sponge cake. It is done simply and quickly. I used potato starch and 3.6 percent milk. I prepared the cream for four servings. The cream turned out liquid. It seems to me that this is because of the yolk, since it turned out to be somewhat small despite the fact that the egg was category C1. The taste of the cream is very delicate, moderately sweet. It perfectly soaked the biscuit and gave it a very pleasant taste. Julia, thank you very much for the recipe!
