My grandmother's egg flan tricks
1.Without boiling, heat the milk with a lemon peel, so that it gives a slight citrus touch and mystery.
2.To make the recipe look as much as possible to the flan of yesteryear, choose organic eggs .
3.Before mixing the egg,lrt it set at room tempareture.This will not curdle the eggs before the hour.
4.If you like that thinner,tougher film so typical of authentic baked egg custards,remove the foil from the flannels 5 minutes before to brown.
5.To taste the best flavour of the custards,they must be very cold.So,once removed from the oven,let them temper and put them in the fridge for an hour.
