Flour-based custard cream
Description
The recipe won't take much time. Custard cream is one of the most popular. It's used in various baked goods. Basically, it's very simple and quick. You just need to pay attention and carefully follow the recipe. It's best to stir the cream with a whisk during cooking. If you're new to making custard cream, do it this way: pour the mixture of yolks, sugar, and flour into cold milk, then continuously stir until the cream thickens. This will take a bit longer, but it will be easier to get rid of lumps if they appear. I prepare this cream with egg yolks, but you can also use whole eggs. Serve chilled.
