Como fazer Natilla Cuban Custard
- In a medium saucepan, combine 4 cups whole milk, 1 cinnamon stick, zest of 1 orange, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat.
- Remove from heat and let the milk mixture steep for 15 minutes to infuse the flavors. Remove cinnamon stick and orange zest.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup cornstarch and 1/2 cup cold water until smooth, creating a slurry.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 6 large egg yolks and 1 cup granulated sugar until pale and thick.
- Gradually whisk the cornstarch slurry into the egg yolk mixture until fully combined.
- Slowly pour the warm milk mixture into the egg yolk and cornstarch mixture, whisking constantly to prevent curdling.
- Strain the custard through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean saucepan.
- Cook the custard in a double boiler or over medium-low heat, stirring constantly with a spatula, until it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon (about 8-10 minutes). Do not boil.
- Remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Pour the custard into individual serving dishes or a large bowl. Let it cool completely at room temperature before covering and refrigerating for at least 2 hours to allow it to set.
- Before serving, dust generously with ground cinnamon.
