Crème anglaise tips

Our fail-safe tips for making crème anglaise:
  • Crème anglaise can be served warm or cold. If serving cold, allow to cool completely before covering and putting in the fridge to chill. It can be stored like this for a couple of days.
  • To reheat, place in a bain-marie, or in a bowl over a pan of gently simmering water, stirring occasionally. Take care not to let the mixture curdle. 
  • The secret to getting a silky smooth, pourable consistency is to heat your crème anglaise gently, on a low to medium-low heat. Using your Cooking Chef XL gives you the precise temperature control required to avoid your custard curdling.
