Ingredients for the Lemon Flan Pudding:
- 12 large eggs
- 4 cups (1 liter) whole milk
- 1 1/4 cups (250g) granulated sugar
- 3 strips of lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- Caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade) for the mold
Instructions:
- Start by heating the milk with the lemon zest strips until it reaches a gentle boil.
- Once it boils, turn off the heat, remove the lemon zest, and set aside.
- In a blender, combine the sugar, eggs, and cornstarch. Blend vigorously.
- Gradually add the milk, mixing continuously to achieve a smooth, homogeneous consistency.
- If you prefer, use a wire whisk to ensure the milk is fully incorporated.
- Prepare your mold by coating it thoroughly with the caramel sauce. Make sure the bottom and sides are well-covered.
- Pour the mixture into the caramel-coated mold, straining it to remove any foam.
- Place the mold into a larger pan filled with hot water (bain-marie) and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for approximately 45 minutes.
- After baking, remove from the oven and let the pudding cool down within the water bath.
- Unmold carefully and enjoy!
Pro Tip:
A valuable tip is to use a wider pan for the water bath and add a few drops of vinegar to the water. This prevents the mold from darkening during the baking process. Keep an eye on the water level to ensure it stays clear.
