Re: weird custard problem
You can mix a bit extra and pour it gently while stirring, then you will have an idea about how thich it is getting. I hope that made sense.
Re: weird custard problem
I always make it in a teflon (non-stick) pot (and mine is old too… almost 4 years old :p), never had issues with the custard burning or sticking to the bottom.
Use a wooden spoon and keep the heat low to medium-low, it won’t stick to the bottom.
