Ingredients
Scale
2 cups Heavy Cream
1 cup Whole Milk
3/4 cup Granulated Sugar
1 whole Vanilla Bean
6 large Egg Yolks
a pinch Salt
4 cups Hot Water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) to ensure even baking.
Arrange four 4-ounce ramekins in a snug baking dish.
Combine heavy cream, whole milk, and half of the sugar in a saucepan. Slit the vanilla bean lengthwise and scrape the seeds into the saucepan. Heat until steaming, then steep for 15-20 minutes.
In a bowl, whisk together egg yolks, remaining sugar, and a pinch of salt until smooth and pale.
Gradually ladle warm cream mixture into egg yolks while whisking to temper. Strain the mixture through a sieve into a measuring cup.
Evenly divide the custard among the ramekins. Pour hot water into the baking dish halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Cover with foil and bake for 35-55 minutes.
Remove the ramekins from the water bath and let cool to room temperature. Chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours before serving.
