How to Make 1900 Park Fare Vanilla Sauce Disney
- In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups whole milk, 1 cup heavy cream, and 1 vanilla bean, split and seeds scraped (or 2 teaspoons vanilla extract).
- Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is steaming but not yet boiling.
- In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together 4 large egg yolks and ¾ cup granulated sugar until pale and slightly thickened.
- Slowly pour the warm milk mixture into the egg yolk mixture, whisking constantly to temper the eggs and prevent scrambling.
- Pour the combined mixture back into the saucepan. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly with a spatula, until the sauce thickens enough to coat the back of the spoon (about 5-7 minutes). Do not boil.
- Remove from heat and strain the sauce through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl to remove any vanilla bean seeds or lumps.
- For an extra smooth sauce, press the mixture through the sieve with the back of a spoon.
- Immediately transfer the sauce to a bowl, press plastic wrap directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming, and chill in an ice bath or refrigerator until completely cool.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
