Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 cups half and half
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons honey
1 cup whole almonds (about 4 ounces), toasted, finely chopped
3/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
6 large egg yolks

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325°F. Combine half and half, sugar and honey in medium saucepan. Bring to simmer. Remove from heat; stir in chopped almonds and ground cardamom. Cover and let steep 30 minutes. Strain through fine sieve; discard solids in sieve.
  • Whisk egg yolks in medium bowl to blend. Gradually whisk in half and half mixture. Place six 3/4-cup custard cups or soufflé dishes in roasting pan. Divide custard mixture among custard cups. Pour enough hot water into roasting pan to come halfway up sides of cups.
  • Bake custards until set around edges and center moves only slightly when cups are gently shaken, about 45 minutes. Remove custards from water. Cool. Cover and refrigerate overnight. (Can be prepared 2 days ahead. Keep refrigerated.)

This custard was a bit bland. I think I'll try adding more cardamom next time.

I love the flavor of cardamom, so I was excited to try this recipe. The custard was delicious, but it was a bit too thick for my taste.

This custard was easy to make and turned out great! I used a different brand of cardamom than the one specified in the recipe, and it still turned out well.

I'm allergic to almonds, so I substituted almond milk for cashew milk. The custard was still delicious!

I followed the recipe exactly, but my custard turned out grainy. I'm not sure what went wrong.
