Ingredients
500 ml milk
50 gr stevia sweetener (or alternatively 100 gr regular sugar)
40 gr cornstarch
4 egg yolks
1 organic lemon peel
1 vanilla pod
Preparation
- First, store a bowl in the freezer to chill, so that it is ready for when you need to put your cream in it.
- Now place the yolks in a small pan, add the stevia sweetener (or sugar) and mix with a hand whisk.
- Now add the cornstarch, mix, taking care not to let any lumps form, and take a spatula to check that even at the edges the mixture is smooth.
- Now pour the milk into a clean saucepan, integrate the lemon peel and vanilla pod, turn on the heat, skim the boil to let it flavor and remove both the lemon peel and vanilla pod.
- Having done this, transfer the milk into the yolk mixture in two steps, stir with a hand whisk, return to the heat and without stopping stirring, let it thicken well.
- Finally transfer the cream to the bowl you have set aside to cool, stir quickly to lower the temperature, cover it with clingfilm, let it rest a few hours in the refrigerator, stir it to restore the creaminess, and use it as you like.
You can use rice starch instead of cornstarch, the important thing is that you never use flour.
