Cardamon-Coffee Custard
A light dessert to end a meal on a high note.
Ingredients
| 1 1/3 cup | cream 15% | 330 mL | |
| 3 | cardamom pods | 1 g | |
| 1/8 tsp | vanilla extract | 0.63 mL | |
| 1 pinch | salt | 0.2 g | |
| 1/2 cup | coffee (liquid), strong (espresso), lukewarm | 125 mL | |
| 4 | egg yolks | ||
| 1 | eggs size large | ||
| 1/3 cup | sugar | 65 g | |
| plastic wrap |
Before you start
A hand-held or stand mixer will make things easier for this recipe.
For a stronger coffe taste, one or two teaspoons of instant coffe may be added to the mixture.
Method
- Preheat the oven to 160°C/325°F.
- Put the cream, cardamom, vanilla, salt and coffee in a saucepan. Heat 5 min over medium-low heat, paying attention not to let it boil. Remove from the heat and set aside to infuse and cool down for 15 min.
- Meanwhile, separate the egg whites and yolks for the required number of yolks. Set aside in a glass jar with a lid the whites that are not used in this recipe. Put the yolks in a bowl, with the whole egg(s) and the sugar, then whisk using an electric mixer until the mixture is pale and form ribbons, about 3-4 min.
- Strain the cream mixture through a fine sieve to remove the spices, then pour into the egg preparation slowly while gently folding using a whisk. Spoon the mixture into ramekins.
- Put a towel or piece of cloth into a large baking-pan (either a rectangular cake-mould or a roasting pan). Place the ramekins on the cloth and fill the pan with enough hot water to reach halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
- Bake in the middle of the oven for about 45 min: the centre will still tremble slightly when moved and will continue to set as it cools.
- Take the ramekins out of the water bath right away to avoid overcooking. Let them cool down 20 min at room temperature, then cover them with a plastic wrap and chill at least 2 h in the refrigerator. Serve.

2014-12-30T18:48:16+00:00 december 30, 2014there is no mentioning of the coffee in the recipe directions! I added the coffee to the whipped eggs and sugar, but that did not turn out too well, the eggs did not stay thick. Then I added the cream and despite being having a runny mixtute I still put it in the oven.
