Crepe again!


上次做过了custard cream的crepe, 这次去找了vanilla cream的recipe,开始做起来了。

Ingredients:

Vanilla cream

1/2 cup milk

1/2 cup whipping cream

1 teaspoon vanilla

3 large egg yolks

2 1/2 tablespoons sugar

1 tablespoon flour


Instructions (for vanilla cream):

1. In a small saucepan over medium heat, scald milk and cream by bringing it just to a boil. Remove from heat.

2. In a small bowl, whisk together egg yolks and sugar until light and fluffy. About 2 minutes. Add flour and continue mixing until smooth.

3. Slowly pour the hot milk mixture, one tablespoon at a time into the egg mixture (to temper the eggs, otherwise you'll end up with scrambled eggs). Whisk until smooth and completely free of lumps. 2-3 minutes.

4. Return mixture to the saucepan, and place over medium heat, bring mixture to a boil whisking constantly and cook for another 2 minutes. Add vanilla then whisk to incorporate and remove from heat immediately.

5. Transfer the pastry cream to a bowl. Place a sheet of plastic wrap directly on top of the pastry cream to prevent skin from forming. Make sure there are no air pockets.

6. Refrigerate until ready to use.


Take a layer of crepe, and put on flat surface.


Using a spatula, spread vanilla cream on a crepe.

Top with another crepe and repeat until use up all the crepes except the very last one on top.
