Oh. Egg custard. I was looking at it like I thought I knew my bakes but I've never heard of vanilla custard. My old fashioned similar recipe - that we've always done in my family - is crème caramel: same recipe with caramel at the bottom.

Many years ago when I was a caregiver for a few different folks, I’d make baked custard for them. It was a hit. Now I’m old and my own caregiver who doesn’t like eggs most ways so I want to make some custard for myself. Thanks for this easy to follow reminder of how to make it.❤

Thank you for a simple, comforting dessert Chef John. This brings back childhood memories of times when I was recovering from a little illness and Mom would make baked egg custard. Just slightly sweet, not too rich, served warm and fragrant with that touch of nutmeg on top. One of those special 'mom' touches that made you feel loved.

5:46 Your comparison to silken tofu is very apt! Chef John, you probably aren't aware, but there's a dish that in Chinese is called douhua (essentially bean flower), which is the most silken tofu. It can be used for both savoury and sweet applications, and it's an absolute joy to eat.

Of all your recipes I've tried, this was the closest I've come to dropping what I was doing, going to the kitchen, and trying the recipe. If it weren't for the overnight in the icebox, I would have. I know if I make it tonight for tomorrow, I'll eat it at around 0300. I'm already cooking one of your meatloaf recipes for tonight's supper. I was a line cook in a steak house many moons ago. My family learned all the lack of a potholder means is I'm not using a potholder. I'm like the waiter at ChiChi's: "Be careful, the plate is hot."

Question: if I used cream instead of milk in this recipe, added sugar on top of the custard after it had been baked in the oven and cooled down, and then torched it, wouldn't I then have a (sort of) crème brûlée? I ask, because your method would be way easier to make than the way I have been making crème brûlée the traditional way...? Thank you and culinary greetings from Amsterdam, The Netherlands!

I make basically all my creme brulee like that nowadays and it really makes the final result a lot more interesting.
