Flan In A Dutch Oven The Easy Way Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a small nonstick saucepan, heat the sugar over medium heat. Shake and swirl occasionally to distribute sugar until it is dissolved and begins to brown. Lift the pan over the heat source (4 to 6 inches) and continue to brown the sugar until it becomes a dark golden brown. You may slightly stir while cooking, but continually stirring causes the sugar to crystallize. Pour caramelized sugar into a 1 1/2 quart casserole dish or a large loaf pan, and swirl to coat the bottom of the pan evenly.
• In a blender, combine sweetened condensed milk, cream, milk, eggs and vanilla. Blend on high for one minute. Pour over the caramelized sugar.
• Place the filled casserole dish into a larger pan and add 1 inch of HOT water to the outer pan. Bake in preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes, or until set.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, combine milk and salt and scald. Remove from heat and add 1 c. sugar, stirring until it is dissolved. Set aside. In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs until slightly foamy. Slowly add the sweetened milk while stirring. Add vanilla. If you would like a golden color to the flan add a little yellow food coloring or one drop caramel coloring. In a small skillet, melts 6 Tbs. sugar until it is a light golden brown color. Coat a 1 ½ quart tube pan with the caramel. Pour the custard into the mold and place the mold into a 12" deep Dutch oven filled with water half way up the tube mold. Bake at 300°F for about 1 hour or until set. The custard is done when a knife inserted into the middle of the custard comes out clean. Cool completely before inverting onto a shallow serving plate. If the flan does not release easily, immerse the tube pan in some hot water for a few seconds, then turn out on the serving plate. Serves 6 to 8
