Zubereitung von Authentic Mexican Flan
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Caramelize the sugar: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the sugar and 1/4 cup of water. Cook, without stirring, until the sugar dissolves and turns into a rich amber caramel. Carefully pour the caramel into the bottom of a 9-inch flan dish, swirling to coat the bottom evenly.
- In a blender, combine the eggs, condensed milk, evaporated milk, vanilla extract, and salt. Blend until completely smooth and frothy.
- Slowly pour the custard mixture over the caramel in the flan dish.
- Place the flan dish in a larger baking pan. Pour enough hot water into the larger pan to come halfway up the sides of the flan dish (this creates a water bath).
- Carefully place the baking pan in the preheated oven and bake for 65 minutes, or until the flan is set but still slightly jiggly in the center.
- Remove the baking pan from the oven and let the flan cool completely in the water bath. Then, refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flan to fully set and chill.
- To serve, run a thin knife around the edge of the flan to loosen it. Invert the flan onto a serving plate. Enjoy the rich, creamy perfection!
