I have watched a lot of cooking shows on UA-cam. I will have to say honestly that I love, love, love, love, love all of Thomas Joseph's videos. He is very clear and concise and I learn so much. His videos are simply the best and I honestly don't think anyone can compare to how he explains everything. Martha… give him a raise! He is amazing and I'm not the only one who feels this way.
the amount of self control that man has to pick up a spoon of custard and then put it back down without eating it literally made me clap in admiration edit: OMG HE DID IT TWICE WTF IS HE EVEN HUMAN????
I usually placed the flan cup into a pot filled with water (about half the height of the cup) then heat the pot directly on a very low fire. It cooks suuuper slowly but turns out perfect every time (I don't have an oven and my steamer is too small). Also, I rub a little (unsalted)butter on the inside of the cup so the flan slips out easily.
Really enjoyed this video. Love egg custard but have never made one. In this one lesson you have given me the confidence to go ahead and do it. Love, love, love your style of teaching. It's warm and effective. Thanks.
I appreciate these videos that you make, it is like listening to a very good chemistry teacher teach, very intuitive and covers nearly all of my side questions. Thanks for awesome videos!
I can't wait to make this tomorrow. Thank you for the detailed demonstration !!! Loved it and am drooling already. Alas! It's 1am and I need NOT think about it!!
Thomas, I can't express to you the impact your videos have made on my personal life. All I have to do is prepare something from one of your videos, and the deal is essentially sealed!
at 1:09 I knew what was going to happen and at 1:12 I was drooling 😭 now I want to watch Amèlie and some crème brûlée!!! Ps: Thomas you're always so parfait!
Thanks for sharing your precious experience.I am greatly benefited! Can you sharing how to make Italian method macaron? It was more difficult than French macaron
If you really like flan, I recommend buying a ''flanera'', which is a specially designed flan dish with a lid to cook it in. My Spanish husband cooks the flan inside it, and the ''flanera'' goes inside a water bath in a pressure cooker on the stove. It's faster and your flan won't have any air bubbles!
looool well his french is so cute . i seriously like this recipe since i don't have a balance to make it with gr and all french recipes are with gr it's hard .........with this i'll make it rain ♥ thanks i'll try it with brown sugar caramel since it's soo youmii ^^
I really love you Mr. Thomas cuz ur so very good invterms of doing thr perfect things in cooking and baking. God Bless. P.S. I want you to know that you are my inspiration. I studied nursing but I really love Cooking. now im working as a cook and a baker. #Philippinesfoodexpo a Filipino Nationality but a Residency of K S A
I have two questions. First was the coconut cream you used just whipped coconut milk from a can? and second, could you do a video on making the perfect pie crust? I absolutely love your videos! I want to try every single one of them the second I'm done watching it.
Here in the Philippines, custard is one of our traditional desserts to serve when there's an occasion. Usually the process of cooking this is through steaming or through steamers rather than putting into an oven. so yeah. :)
No, he baked it in a water bath to ensure even cooking. Steaming is a different process and usually involves baskets to allow the steam to cook the food indirectly.
Thnk u for this beautiful recipe... Plz plz show us how to make soft silky cream cheese...because where I live itz not easily available if it is comes very expensive... Plz
One small can of sweetened condensed milk would work fine for flavoring the flan instead of using the coconut as well. Cream cheese is also used if you would rather have a thick flan than a jello-like consistency. I've always liked alternatives, but otherwise, this video is perfect!
Hi thomas!!! I have a Question for you, When you had your mixture of eggs,sugar,&salt whisked together, you went to add the milk & coconut cream to the pot to bring it to a simmer. The part I am curious and a little confused about is why wouldn’t i just add the milk & coconut cream (room temp or either slightly chilled I guess) straight to the egg mixture and mix it like that so I wouldn’t risk curdling the egg mixture, and because I would end up baking the final mixture any way. Does the milk and coconut cream mixture have to be warm or something before mixing it in? If you don’t mind would you explain why we heated the milk / coconut mixture on the stove ?! Just so I can get a better understanding of everything! 😘I love to cook, I adore your videos! I’ve been great at cooking & baking even since I have been little and even my whole family looks forward to when they get to eat a dish I have cooked, however I have not done so well with anything egg custard pie, crème brûlée, RC-berries and cream (it’s a desert dish at Ruth Chris I tried to recreate for my husband) Anything such as those dishes that run in that family I’ve kind of flopped at! Lol so your explanation would be so appreciated!! If you could even recreate the Ruth Chris berries & cream dish, oh my goodness I would adore you even more! All my love❤️ xoxo Kayla😊
stoic ryan hi, I make my flan mixing one can of condenced milk, one can of evaporated milk, four whole eggs and a half a teaspoon of vanilla extract. All this is mixed well but cold, do not heat the milks. Add to the ramikans over the caramel as he explains, or one large mold. Decorate with blackberries, blueberries, raspberries and large strawberries on top. I double or triple the recipe, yummy.....
prajaktik , you have to put it in a water bath and well covered with aluminum foil. About one hour, in a 350 oven. When a tooth pick comes out clean, its done. Keep it out until it is cold. If some of the caramel is stuck, put it in a water bath over your stove, then pour it over the flan. It is delicious. Remember the measure is one can of condence milk, one can of evaporated milk and four large eggs. If they are are too small, five, some vanilla extract.
Your explanations about cooking are the best I've seen in UA-cam. Thank you, Thomas!

Absolutely agree with you! It's the first time I'm hearing him and I can't decide what I love more; is it the custard or him. Love, love, love.
I keep learning new things from this channel thanks you Thomas.
Tedd 😊👍

the amount of self control that man has to pick up a spoon of custard and then put it back down without eating it literally made me clap in admiration
edit: OMG HE DID IT TWICE WTF IS HE EVEN HUMAN????
😂😂
Maybe he had already eaten some custard and couldn't manage another mouthful
Hahaha

Eda büküm my mouth was drooling so bad. and I was like what?? you are not gonna eat it!??

Custards are a new concept to me. Thank you Thomas!
I didn’t know the difference between the two! Thanks

I really love you Mr. Thomas cuz ur so very good invterms of doing thr perfect things in cooking and baking. God Bless.

U r a wonderful master.
Hi ive got a few questions! What would be a good substitue for the coconut cream? Also i like my flan on the thicker and eggier side what should i do?
I have two questions. First was the coconut cream you used just whipped coconut milk from a can? and second, could you do a video on making the perfect pie crust? I absolutely love your videos! I want to try every single one of them the second I'm done watching it.

Reggie G. Antonio he did steam it.
No, he baked it in a water bath to ensure even cooking. Steaming is a different process and usually involves baskets to allow the steam to cook the food indirectly.
Awesome video👍👍
What kind of brushes do you guys use? I'm looking for a non-silicon natural brush to use in my kitchen.
Hey Thomas! Can you do a video on how to prevent curdled cake mixture? Also how to fix it when it happens :)
You're so cool Thomas!
Make video about chiffon cake thank you very much i like ur videos

Thanks, love you show!
Great video. One question,where did you get that portable glass stovetop

Awesome

can i make the custard in a 8-9" baking pan? does it need longer baking time?

How would you make a pastry cream or a custard with coconut milk?
alternative to coconut cream?
stoic ryan hi, I make my flan mixing one can of condenced milk, one can of evaporated milk, four whole eggs and a half a teaspoon of vanilla extract. All this is mixed well but cold, do not heat the milks. Add to the ramikans over the caramel as he explains, or one large mold. Decorate with blackberries, blueberries, raspberries and large strawberries on top. I double or triple the recipe, yummy.....
Tita Linda how long do we keep it if we use one large mold n wat abt the temperature in oven???
stoic ryan you don't need the coconut cream, just whole milk is enough for an amazing flan
I usually make mine with just milk, but I'd recommend whole milk.
prajaktik , you have to put it in a water bath and well covered with aluminum foil. About one hour, in a 350 oven. When a tooth pick comes out clean, its done. Keep it out until it is cold. If some of the caramel is stuck, put it in a water bath over your stove, then pour it over the flan. It is delicious. Remember the measure is one can of condence milk, one can of evaporated milk and four large eggs. If they are are too small, five, some vanilla extract.
Do custard and brûlée taste the same? Which one tastes better?
Could we replace the coconut cream with heavy cream and get the same result? Just curious in case the increased fat might cause problems
Instead of coconut cream can we put heavy cream?
Nice
is there anything you can replace the coconut cream with?
could you make an episode on citrus peel candies?
are the degrees in celsius or farenheit??
What would you use for a custard filling?
Can use a steamer instead of baking it?
whats the difference between cooking this in an oven as opposed to a steamer?
hi, guys I have a question, can you steam the flan instead of baking it? I want to make it but my oven kinda sucks
Is the coconut cream necessary.?
what if i don't want to add coconut cream , can i add evaporated milk for instead?
i need a science behind doughnuts video. also can i skip coconut cream ? if i use only milk is that ok ?
I've been making flan and I never used coconut cream. What's the difference?
Can I use whipping creme
what if I don't want to use coconut cream, what else I can instead of?
how about adding coconut extract? that might make the coconut flavor pop
Is coconut cream optional? If not then plz suggest its substitute. thanks👍
Deepesh Das yes it is!
Deepesh Das you can use whole milk or condensed milk instead
thank u guys😊👍
