Orange Flan Flan De Naranja Recipes

Steps:

• In a heavy saucepan, mix together the sugar and water, bring it to boil at high heat. When it reaches a deep-golden brown color, after about 8 minutes, pour into 6 (8-ounce) ramekins. Let cool.
• In a medium sauce pan mix the whole milk, half-and-half, sugar, and orange zest. Bring to a boil, and then simmer for 3 minutes. Remove from the heat, cover with plastic wrap, and let it rest for 10 minutes at room temperature.
• In a medium-size bowl whisk the eggs. Return the milk mixture to a boil and then remove from heat. Slowly pour 1 cup of the hot milk mixture into the eggs, whisking briskly to temper the eggs. Then add the egg mixture to the milk mixture, mixing thoroughly. Strain the custard into a spouted measuring cup.
• Pour mixture into the ramekins with the caramel. Bake in a water bath, covered with foil, in a preheated 325 degree oven for 22 to 25 minutes. Let cool at room temperature.
• Remove the flan from the molds by gently loosening the sides with a small knife. Garnish with orange segments and mint leaves.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a bowl whisk the eggs, egg yolks and sugar together, then add zest, orange juice, heavy cream, and salt, and whisk to combine. Strain the mixture and fill caramelized lined ramekins. Put ramekins in hot water bath and bake in the preheated oven for 18 minutes or until firm.
• Allow to cool to room temperature then refrigerate until cold, about 2 hours.
• Caramel:
• 3/4 cup sugar
• 1/4 cup water
• Put the sugar and water in a saucepan, and bring to a simmer without stirring. Cover the saucepan with a lid for 2 minutes, them remove and simmer until mixture is an amber color. Pour caramel into ramekins to cover the bottom, and swirl to coat 1/3 up the sides of ramekins.
• Yield: enough to coat 4 to 6 ramekins

Steps:

• Place sugar in a heavy saucepan over medium-high heat, and cook, stirring constantly, until the sugar melts and turns a golden amber color, about 10 minutes. Watch carefully once syrup begins to change color, because it burns easily. Carefully pour the melted sugar syrup into a flan mold. Let cool.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Pour whole milk, sweetened condensed milk, eggs, egg yolks, orange juice, orange peel, vanilla extract, and cornstarch into a blender, and blend for a minute or so, until the mixture is smooth. Pour in the cream, and pulse several times to incorporate the cream. Pour the mixture over the cooled caramel syrup in the flan mold.
• Line a roasting pan with a damp kitchen towel. Place the flan mold on the towel, inside roasting pan, and place roasting pan on oven rack. Fill roasting pan with boiling water to reach halfway up the sides of the baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the center of the flan is set but still slightly jiggly when moved, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Let the flan cool, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours. To serve, run a sharp paring knife around the inside of the mold to release the flan. Invert a plate on the mold, flip the mold over, and gently remove the mold to unmold the flan and reveal the syrupy caramel topping.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F degrees.
• Make a hot water bath for flan by setting a 9-inch pie pan (1-1/4 " deep) in a slightly larger pan. While holding pie pan down so it won't float, fill outer pan with just enough hot water to come up around pie pan. Remove pie pan and put outer pan with water in preheated oven.
• Place 3/4 cup of the sugar in a small heavy pan over medium heat. As sugar begins to melt, tip and swirl pan until sugar is completely melted and syrup is a clear, medium-amber color. Pour syrup into pie pan and, using hot pads to protect hands, tilt pan quickly to let syrup coat bottom and sides. Set on a wire rack; caramel will harden rapidly.
• In a large bowl or blender, combine remaining 1/4 cup sugar, orange juice, lemon juice, orange peel, and eggs; beat or whirl until well blended. Set caramel-lined pan in hot water bath in oven; pour in egg mixture. Bake, uncovered, for about 25 minutes or until the back of a spoon pushed gently into center forms a crevice about 3/8 inch deep.
• Remove pie pan from hot water and let cool slightly; then cover and refrigerate until cold. As flan cools, caramel liquefies.
• To unmold, loosen custard edge with a knife, then cover with a rimmed serving plate. Holding plate in place, quickly invert, turning out custard with caramel on top. Garnish with orange slices.

Steps:

• Preheat oven 350 degrees.
• Make Caramel, melt 1/2 cup sugar, water, lemon juice, cayenne over low heat 8-10 minutes without stirring. Gently tilt pan off heat to distribute color evenly as sugar caramelizes. When Sugar reaches a uniform color golden brown/light amber immediately remove from heat.
• Pour caramel into 4 individual custard cups, tip the molds side to side until there is an even coating of caramel over the bottom and half up sides.
• Grind almonds in food processor.
• Add remaining sugar, zest, eggs. Process until smooth.
• Add cream and OJ, process to mix.
• Let the froth subside before pouring into cups.
• Bake in water bath, covered until flan is set. Test by inserting blade of knife into the center of the custard. If it comes out clean -- done.
• Set aside to cool before unmolding.
