Zubereitung von Basic Vanilla Custard

In a medium saucepan, whisk together the sugar, cornstarch, and salt.
Gradually whisk in the milk and vanilla extract until smooth.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs (or egg yolks) until light and frothy.
Slowly temper the egg mixture by whisking in about 1/4 cup of the warm milk mixture. This prevents the eggs from scrambling.
Pour the tempered egg mixture into the saucepan with the remaining milk mixture. Whisk constantly over medium-low heat until the custard thickens and coats the back of a spoon (about 8-10 minutes).
Remove from heat and stir in the butter until melted and incorporated.
If using, strain the custard through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any lumps or egg white pieces.
Pour the custard into individual serving dishes or a large bowl. Cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface of the custard to prevent a skin from forming.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
