This delicious custard sauce, which accompanies the Rote Grütze, also goes well with summer fruit tarts. Ingredients:
2 cups whole milk |
1/2 cup sugar |
5 large egg yolks |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
Directions:
1. Bring milk and sugar to a simmer in a saucepan without stirring. Whisk yolks in a bowl until blended, then gradually whisk in hot milk mixture. Return to saucepan and cook over moderate heat, stirring constantly, until sauce thickens enough to coat back of a wooden spoon and registers 170°F. on an instant-read thermometer.
2. Immediately pour sauce through a fine sieve into a metal bowl and place bowl in a large bowl of ice and cold water. Stir in vanilla and whisk custard occasionally until cool, then cover surface with a piece of wax paper to prevent a skin from forming.
3. Chill until cold.
