EASY VANILLA SAUCE RECIPE | BREAD PUDDING SAUCE

Steps:

• Add the milk and half and half to a pot and bring to a slight simmer. Remove from heat.
• Whisk egg yolks and sugar together in a medium bowl. Slowly ladle all the warm milk mixture into the egg yolk mixture while whisking quickly. Adding it too quickly will cook the egg yolks and cause the sauce to curdle.
• Return to the mixture to the pot and heat over medium low until the sauce thickens and coats the back of a spoon. About 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from heat, add the vanilla once it cools.
• Strain the sauce if desired. Serve warm or chill in the refrigerator.

BASIC VANILLA CUSTARD

Steps:

• Have eggs ready in a bowl, and set aside where it will be within reach.
• Using a whisk, combine milk, sugar and cornstarch in a medium saucepan over medium heat on stovetop. Allow milk to scald (heat to the point when tiny bubbles form around edges of pan). Whisk occasionally to prevent cornstarch from clumping on bottom edges of pan.
• Remove milk mixture from heat, preferably to a burner that's turned off.
• Mix about 2 tablespoons of scalded milk mixture into eggs using whisk, then introduce eggs into milk mixture in a slow stream, whisking milk mixture constantly.
• Immediately return pan to heat and whisk gently until custard thickens, another two or three minutes. Do not allow to boil. (If you find that you have egg white strands in custard, feel free to pass it through a fine-mesh sieve into a different bowl now.)
• Remove pan from heat and stir in vanilla.

PINEAPPLE SALAD WITH VANILLA CUSTARD SAUCE

Steps:

• Make the pineapple salad: Toss the pineapple, mint, lime juice and superfine sugar in a large bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• For the custard, first prepare an ice bath. Place the milk in a large metal bowl set over a saucepan filled with 1 inch water. Slice open the vanilla bean lengthwise, scrape the seeds into the milk and discard the pod. Stir to combine.
• Heat the double boiler over medium heat until the milk is steaming but not boiling. Turn off the heat. Combine 1/4 cup of the warm milk with the egg yolks in a small bowl, stirring constantly. Add another 1/4 cup of milk, stirring constantly to warm the egg yolks. Pour the egg-and-milk mixture into the remaining milk in the double boiler. Stir in the granulated sugar. Turn on the heat to medium and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens slightly, about 10 minutes. (The custard should thickly coat the back of a wooden spoon.)
• Remove from the heat and put the metal bowl in the ice water bath. Stir in the nutmeg. Stir the custard from time to time until it becomes very cold. When the custard is cold, drizzle some over each serving of pineapple salad and serve the extra custard on the side.
