Re: Recipe of Egg Pudding with Caramel Topping
You can use any kind of cream...low fat or full fat or you can even use whole milk. Sometimes when I make flan, I only use whole milk, other times I use equal quantity of milk and half n half creamcream and other times just half n half cream. Every time it came out great. Just make sure whatever cream you use is in liquid form and not whipped or thickened one...
what is this sahar api?
ps. it looks delicious…n i really enjoyed seeing different food rather than conventional desi menu :cheegum:

In the United States, half and half is a very light cream typically used in coffee. Its butterfat content is about 12.5%,[1] which makes it low-calorie and more stable in coffee. It is widely available in the United States, both in individual-serving containers and in bulk. It is also used to make ice cream. The same product is known as half cream in the United Kingdom
PS: Sahar.. sshhhh don’t say a word. :halo:

ok thanx for such a detailed reply...plz tell me what do u mean by heavy cream? is it whipped or thick cream ? which brand should i go for?if i dont find heavy cream whats the alternate?
also 1 tbs vanilla equals to how many tsps of vanilla extract?
Re: Recipe of Egg Pudding with Caramel Topping
1tbsp of vanilla = 1tbsp of vanilla extract.
If you are in UK then accoring to Xenophanez half n half cream in UK will be called half cream. I am not sure what it is called in pakistan. It is the kind of cream that cannot be whipped. It will be close to one of those creams you can use in coffee and tea, so I all I would say is go and check your local grocery store. You will normally find them in the milk freezers....
Re: Recipe of Egg Pudding with Caramel Topping
Guys, feel free to substitute as others are suggesting. I have found this recipe to be very finicky. If it's overcooked, if the temperature is raised, etc, it still comes out like flan, but it does not come out as its creamy best.
