Custard - British favorite dessert

Custard

Custard is a classic British dessert, admired for its smooth and delicate texture. Made from a simple mixture of milk, eggs, and sugar, it is gently heated until it thickens into a creamy sauce. Sometimes flavoured with vanilla, custard is often served warm, poured over puddings, crumbles, or steamed sponges, adding richness and comfort.

Its history in Britain stretches back to the Middle Ages, when it was used in pies and tarts. Today, custard remains a favourite accompaniment to traditional sweets, celebrated for its gentle sweetness and timeless charm at the heart of British home cooking.
