Custard

15 minutes

Custard is a delicate and velvety dessert that has won the hearts of chefs worldwide. In Russian cuisine, it is used as a base for cakes, pastries, and custard buns. Its origins trace back to classic French recipes where the combination of milk, cream, and egg yolks creates an unparalleled texture. The cream has a soft, sweet flavor with subtle vanilla notes, and its silky consistency makes it ideal for filling or decorating baked goods. The key to preparation lies in careful heating in a water bath, allowing for perfect thickness without curdling the eggs. This cream is a symbol of home comfort and exquisite taste that can be served as an independent dessert or used in pastry art.
