Hi, all! I'm Masa!
This time I'd like to share a delicious
sauce for desserts!
It's called (Japanese),
which is custard cream
This is a sauce usually appears in all sorts of desserts
The recipe to make this is not complicated
We only need yolks, sugar, and milk,
mix them together. The flavor of the custard itself
is quite mild,
so you can use it to make loads of dishes! This time,
I'll share a simple way to make
classic custard cream. Later on,
I'll show you all how you can use the cream
and add it into dishes!
Let's get started!
Classic Custard Cream
2 yolks
(Use your own way to separate them!)
(You can freeze the whites for other uses)
40g sugar
Mix till light yellow
(The more the bubble is, the better the texture is!)
18g corn starch
Mix them well
The starch I use this time is
corn starch. You can choose your own starch,
corn starch or cake flour are both okay, (flour: denser and easy to make shape)
the difference is the texture
it's all up to you! (corn starch: lighter and more flexibility)
200cc milk
Cook till you can see it bubbling
Add it in your yolk mixture
Mix them well
Back to the pot
Turn up to medium-low heat
Keep on stirring
(Make sure it doesn't stick at the bottom)
When it starts getting thicken, turn to low heat
If there's bubble in it, the custard is cooked!
Keep on cooking till you can see it glistening
Custard is made from milk and yolks, so it'll get sour easily
Use a shallow container, cool it down with iced water
This kind of cream will
dry out at the surface easily, so
you have two ways, one is
use a kitchen foil
to cover it, another,
just like me, I prepared
butter, use it and simply
touch
its surface. So the surface will have a
thin layer of oil, like so,
you can prevent the dry out! Later on,
when it's done cooling,
and when you need it, mix it up then it's done!
Next, I'll make a matcha flavor
custard cream! Here, I use
pure matcha powder,
Prepare the yolk mixture like the classic ones
2 yolks, 40g sugar, 18g corn starch
200cc milk, 5g matcha powder
Turn up to medium-low heat
Keep on stirring till the powder is all dissolved
Turn off the heat when it's bubbling
Into the yolk mixture
Back to the pot
Turn up to medium-low heat
Keep on cooking till it gets thicken
The same way to cool it down
Next on, I'll make a chocolate flavor
custard cream. The steps
are quite the same, but some
ingredients like, corn starch, milk, and sugar,
I make a minor adjustment to the anout
Because we need to take chocolate into consideration,
the sweetness, and it'll also
turns solid itself. I prepared
dark chocolate.
50g dark chocolate
Shred it
30cc cream
Let it simmer
Pour it into the chocolate
Now your gnash is done
Same way, with different amount, to make chocolate custard
2 yolks, 30g sugar, 15g corn starch, 180cc milk
Pour your gnash into the yolk mixture
Cool it down
After cooling, the custard cream will
turn solid, so, pour them into a bowl, then stir,
till it turns back to creamy
then it's done!
If,
there's still chunks in it,
you can use a sieve to fix the problem
Then, put your custard in a pastry bag,
whatever you need it,
just use the tasty custard! Now,
custard three ways, is done!
So, how to taste them? The easiest way, is eat with bread!
Add the cream, then it's delicious!
Let's dig in!
The texture is really good! The taste is already
like a cake!
Next is, matcha flavor!
This will be also great!
Let's dig in!
The matcha flavor is really tasty! The flavor
is really like
the thing they sell in the department store,
What's it called? Ummmmm... Spring roll?
What is it...? (Japanese)
A round shape, baked thing...
(I just din't know!! ARGH!!!)
(Actually it's a Japanese dessert, dai-pan yaki, which looks like an ancient Japanese coin)
The flavor of the yolk itself
is really mild, so when you add matcha in it,
you can taste more of the matcha
flavor!
With a bitterness,
so it's really enjoyable!
Chocolate flavor..
Let's dig in!
I also like this one!
The gnash itself
is load with the chocolate flavor,
when you taste it alone the flavor is quite thick
but mixed with custard,
the flavor turns really light
and add a abundant flavor
of the yolk. With sliced
almond, and toast it,
sprinkle it on top with the custard is also great!
So, the custard three ways I shared,
are really simple! The thing you need to beware is,
the ingredients are kind of raw materials,
It's called nama gashi in Japanese, which is made from yolks,
and milk. These two will
turn sour easily. So, after you're done,
make sure it is all finished that day or the next day.
It's much safer and healthier! Use the custard,
you can make cakes,
like puffs, load them with custard is really good!
I'll also make them in the next video!
If you want to make some easy desserts,
you must try this out! Thanks for watching!
