How to Make Luscious Berries With Custard Sauce
- In a 2-quart saucepan, heat 2 cups heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer.
- Remove from heat and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 1/4 cup cornstarch.
- Gradually whisk in 4 large egg yolks until the mixture is light and creamy.
- Slowly whisk the hot cream into the egg yolk mixture, whisking constantly to prevent curdling.
- Return the mixture to the saucepan and stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until the custard thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon (about 3-5 minutes). Do not boil.
- Remove from heat and strain the custard through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any lumps.
- Let cool slightly before serving warm or chilled over 2 cups of your favorite fresh berries (strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, etc.).
