Flan Jarocho
I just recently made this flan and it came out so delicious. I felt I had to share the recipe with somebody...and who better than my soap friends.
This récipe calls for café veracruzano which cannot easily be found here in Houston, so I assume other places in the states wouldnt have it either. I suggest substituting for nestle instant coffee (nescafé, find it in the internationalsection).
Ingredients:
1.5 qt mold
2 cups of milk
2 tsp of instant coffee
1 cup of sugar
4 eggs
4 yolks
2 cans of sweetened condensed milk
Preparation :
1) Heat milk in microwave for about a minute and a half and add coffee. Stir until completely dissolved.
2) Now its time to caramelize the sugar. Place the sugar in a sauce pan over medium low heat and stir with a wooden spoon. The sugar will begin to brown but make sure you do not over heat it. It should be a light caramel color and not a dark auburn.
3) Remove caramel from heat and quickly pour into the mold. Make sure it covers the entire bottom of the mold. It will harden rather quickly. (that’s what she said)
4) Heat oven to ͕355˚F
5) Whisk eggs and yolk in a bowl. Add milk/coffee mixture and make sure to blend fully. Lastly add the condensed milk. Use a spoon or spatula to try to get as much possible out of the cans. Whisk till you get a true homogenous mixture.
6) Pour mixture into the mold and place mold in a water bath. Place mold and bath in oven and leave it sitting for an hour. You can check to make sure its ready by sticking a fork or toothpick through the flan to see if it comes out dry.
7) After taking the flan out of the oven, remove from bath and let sit for a few minutes to cool. After about twenty minutes, cover with saran wrap and leave in the fridge for three hours. Once it has cooled, you can unmold it
I took a picture of my first flan but I didnt like how the picture came out. But I will take a picture of the one I made yesterday when I unmold it today
