To Make the Sauce
In a small sauce pot, whisk together the cornstarch and sugar.
Pour in the milk and whisk to combine.
Add in the egg yolks and vanilla bean paste and whisk once more.
Place the pot over medium low heat, whisking slowly but continuously and make sure to scrape the sides and bottom of the pot.
In 5-10 minutes the sauce should start to thicken. It will become noticeably thicker and should bubble at least once.
When the sauce has thickened, immediately remove it from the heat and pour through a sieve into a heat proof bowl or jar.
Cover the surface of the sauce with plastic to prevent it from forming a skin, and allow it to cool before putting it in the fridge until you are ready to use it.
This will keep in the fridge, covered for 4-5 days. It can also be warmed briefly in the microwave before serving.
- This recipe is very simple, however once you put the pot on the stove, don't walk away from it.
- When the recipe tells you to keep stirring, it is important to keep stirring - this will prevent the milk from burning and the corn starch from clumping.
- The moment the custard is ready, remove it from the heat and pour through a sieve to prevent it from cooking further.
