Recipe Name | Boiled Custard in a Vitamix |
Dish Type | Drink |
Preparation Time | 30 minutes |
No. of Servings | 10 |
Shelf Life (Daily) | 5 |
Difficulty | Easy |
Ingredients | 3 1/2 cups whole milk 1/2 cup half-and-half 4 eggs 2 to 2 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch (more makes a thicker custard to add liquor to) 1/4 teaspoon salt 3/4 cup sugar (more for sweeter)2 teaspoons vanilla 3 beaten egg whites |
Directions | Combine all but vanilla and beaten egg whites in Vitamix. Divide into two batches and mix on high-speed for 10 to 12 minutes or until heavy steam escapes. (The mixture should be thick and not liquid-y at this point. Once the eggs are set, and the mixture coats a spoon, it’s done. I also wet a paper towel and put around the air holes at the top of the Vitamix lid to keep the mixture from spilling out when it’s processing at high-speed.) Recombine batches, add vanilla, and cover and cool overnight. I usually place saran wrap directly on top of the custard to prevent a “skin” forming while it cools. Once the mixture has cooled, fold in three beaten egg whites for a lighter, frothier custard. |
