    Eek! I looked for how to make custard because I've been watching a lot of cooking shows lately and I feel like I stumbled on a celebrity's channel because I loved you on Britain's Best Home Cook 😆 great job, thank you ♡

    My mother would make a meringue in a fancy aluminum tin with peaks. Piece of meringue, custard, strawberries from a tin(freezer section of market, and whipped cream on top. The whites would be put to use, straight away, that way.

    Top tip, I always use a slotted flat metal spatula to scrape the bottom of the pan constantly to check it isn't sticking.

      Hubby tells me off for using metal, I lost so many non stick pans like that, so wood or rubber for me these days

      @@KatieHomeCook Ah yes, I can see how that would be an 'issue'. I have the same problem with my wife scrubbing my cast iron pans. 😮‍💨
      I use a heavy bottom stainless steel risotto pan on a low heat for custard. Thin pan bottoms tend to burn custard I find.

    Can I use whole eggs instead? I don't really have any use for the whites and would hate to waste them. Thanks for the recipe!

      No I wouldn’t recommend it, just the yolks, you could freeze the whites in a zip lock bag, until you have a use?

      If it before the milk just until you form a paste, and no eggy taste, all custard is made with eggs

      Method
      1. Heat the milk and any flavouring being used, until it just comes to the boil.
      2. Whilst the milk is heating up, mix together the yolks, sugar and cornflour, it should look like a smooth paste. 😊😊
