Vanilla Creme Patissiere

This recipe is to go with my choux puffs~ If you like to have other flavours adding to it, chocolate or coffee or even green tea would go perfect with it. Or instead of Sugar, use Honey, it will give nice texture and smell~~ Yummy yummy~~


Ingredients:

Milk 500ml
Sugar A 50g (Or Honey)
Vanilla Paste 1tspn
Egg Yolk 60g
Sugar B 50g (Or Honey)
Cornflour 50g

Tools you may need:

       


1. Bring milk and sugar (A) to boil.
2. Whisk the yolks and sugar (B), then gradually add in cornflour, forming a pale yellow paste.
3. Pour half the boiled sugar milk mixture to Yolk paste gradually till well blended.
4. Return the (3) mixture above back to saucepan and re-boil it. Care must be taken to whisk fast and carefully.
5. Continue mixing the the mixture till it returns to boil and forming a thick paste.
6. Transfer the mixture to bowl and airtight cover with plastic film, this will prevent skin forming. As for me, I always put them directly into pipping bag then wrap the whole bag before cooling it down in fridge, so I can pipe it out immediately whenever I want to use them for serving.
