Ingredients

Instructions

Beat the egg yolks with the sugar, flour, and a pinch of salt for 2-3 minutes until the mixture is pale and thick.
Heat the milk in a small saucepan or microwave until steaming (about 60-70°C / 140-158°F).
Add the hot milk and lemon zest or vanilla pod to the egg mixture, then whisk together for 1-2 minutes until well combined.
Transfer to a saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat, stirring constantly for 3-5 minutes until the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.
Remove from heat and remove the lemon zest or vanilla pod.
Either sprinkle with sugar and caramelize using a kitchen torch or hot iron until golden, or simply sprinkle with cinnamon.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
