The BEST Flan Recipe

[@jeanskirt]

The Spaniards also conquered the Philippines and, same with Mexico, left us with flan among other things. We call ours “leche flan”. Our recipes are almost the same except we don’t use whole eggs, we only use (depending on the recipe, 10-12) yolks. The coffee flan sounds good. Filipino variations do half pound cake/half flan cakes, or ube flan also. We also love to add the flan into our halo-halo.

[@matmar05]

What did you just call the chocoflan?

[@livmaher6527]

Leche flan, Philippine style, is my favourite version of this dessert. You can't beat the velvety smoothness.

[@jeanskirt]

@@matmar05 I didn’t mention chocoflan 🤨 I was referring to him mentioning putting coffee as a variation. I’m confused by your question.

[@MaridelSanderson-v4s]

The best leche flan is in the Philippines

[@renanschimuneck9369]

Spain created both Philipines and Mexico. In Mexico they allied with local opptessed local tribes and overtrown the aztecs that practiced human sacrifices to the sun-god, and charged humans as tax of these oppressed tribes so they could perform those sacrifices. The philipinean tribes were oppressed by mainly ronin (japanese pirates) and had a big cultural devolepment under the spanish rule. Also one of the main figures of philipinean independence regreated his position years later, even attending the spanish king cemitery and asking for forgiveness, as the spanish treated the philipineans far better than the americans that substituted then.

Im only 16 and i made this and it went so well!! I was kinda scared it wouldnt turn out well but this tutorial made it super easy🤗

[@rebekahjalali6435]

I grew up in Bombay and our cook made this all the time- but we called it Caramel Custard. I’ve been longing to make it myself but couldn’t remember how many eggs to cups of milk. So here I am at 73 SO SO HAPPY to be making this so easy recipe tomorrow!! 😊

[@jkronen1000]

I never learned how to cook lol - my mother didn’t either and I’m 70 now. I have made quite a few of your recipes and I am amazed - so detailed and easy to follow. Thanks ❤

One of my favorite desserts! I am totally in love with your copper tea kettle! 🥰

[@maries1381]

I love flan! First dessert I learned how to make from a very young age (I'm Cuban American). My mom loved adding a little cream cheese for a thicker texture. I'm thinking of making either a pumpkin or eggnog flan for Thanksgiving next month! Thank you for sharing!!!!

[@lindalamb6643]

Oh my goodness! 😲 I was thinking I'll bet adding cream would make it that much creamier then you said egg nog?? WHAT?? Egg nog Flan, could there be anything more lovely? 😋😋😋

Hey John, Sri Lankan live in Australia. Made your New York cheese cake and made Aussies shocked and I tried many of your recipes. Amazing! Will try this. Thanks

[@marycoombe2436]

You should put a tea towel in the bottom of your roasting pan. Keeps the flan pan from moving in roasting pan when you are transferring in and out of oven.

[@carolyndrury474]

Super easy to make and oh so delicious… can’t wait to make the other variations 😉

This recipe is the best flan you will ever eat. Also, it's true traditional flan.

[@dorgana68]

Looks fantastic!! The only thing I'd change when I make it is let the sugar caramelize a bit longer. It needs to be darker and a bit bitter 😉

I was just rewatching season 2 of The Lincoln Lawyer and wondered what this was, perfect timing.

[@kade82]

I always use a nonstick pan to make the caramel for flan. I guess it's because no one told me it's more difficult to make it that way. I also.never add water (though I understand its purpose). It wasn't in the way I learned. I always make flan de café for a friend who's been to Spain and enjoyed it there. Different recipe, but I want to try your recipe for the custard. It looks a lot easier/less time-consuming than mine in which I take milk and sugar and cook until it reduces before tempering the eggs and adding everything else.

[@NI-gy2ml]

Love flan!!! Thank you!

[@pilcas1]

I have made this recipe which is pretty common to many Latin American countries. Personally I use a lighter recipe which uses just whole milk and sugar to replace the 2 cans of condensed and evaporated milk. The result is a lighter tasting flan.

[@nikitagupta6164]

OMG how did you know i was craving thisssssss

[@ferbylima8869]

Try the Brazilian version, thats got to be THE BEST FLAN EVER 😋😋😋😋😋🤤🤤🤤🤤

[@taniapinedo4905]

I love flan ❤

[@Oanjoexterminador]

This is a very traditional dessert in Brazil. Here in Brazil we call this "pudim". This one specifically, pudim de leite. It's weird that what you guys call pudim/pudding is called "mingau" here. And flan here it's a completely different thing, a no-bake pudim set with gelatin. Also, we cook it via Bain Marie in the stove top, using a Bundt cake pan.

[@sweettea735]

We have it in the Philippines too

[@sandyaw3057]

It’s not weird what we call pudding, it’s just how we say it here. I’d never say it’s weird what you call things. That was a bit rude.

[@debbiealtman5373]

Never made Flan. Love the train whistle tea kettle..

OMG John, I haven't had flan in 15 plus years. I cannot wait to sink my teeth in this.

In Uruguay it is simply made with milk, eggs and sugar plus the caramel.

Also in India but I didn’t remember the proportion of eggs to milk.

Hi John; I love your shows, you have a great personality; I also love the cinematography, of the filming. The kitchen, looks great; Love, love, love your kitchen. When I traveled to Barcelona, I always had flan for dessert. Speaking of Spain, could you make an Octopus, dinner? P..S there are two kinds of flan, hard shell and soft shell . Scrape, Scrape, Scrape; All the very best, Shaun🦉 of New York City🗽

[@stevenescobar3247]

Incredible flan you made, got to love the original though for me it's a bit to soft for my taste. I tend to add some creamcheese into the mix as to make it firmer.

[@wanttoplae]

I would recommend not adding the hot water until the pan is in the oven to reduce risk of burns due to sloshing water. Extend the oven rack, set the pan on the rack, add the hot water, and then gently push the oven rack back into place.

you can add some lime zest to add some zing to the sweetness of the flan

"I think of this as a Mexican dessert, although Spanish people might beg to differ". Brazilians: Hold my plate of brigadeiros. Seriously though, we in Brazil are so fond of this recipe! Here we call it "pudim", and it's always baked in a bundt pan. It feels weird seeing it without a hole at the center xD
