Yield Makes about 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 large eggs
4 cups milk
2 tablespoons chilled unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Prepare an ice bath, and set aside. In a medium bowl, combine cornstarch, flour, 1/2 cup sugar, and salt; stir to mix. In another medium bowl, whisk eggs until smooth. Add flour mixture to egg mixture, and whisk to combine.
  • In a medium saucepan, combine milk and remaining 1/2 cup sugar. Bring mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat; whisking constantly, slowly pour into egg mixture.
  • Transfer mixture to a clean saucepan set over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, whisking constantly, until thickened, about 3 minutes.
  • Transfer mixture to a large heat-proof bowl. Whisk in butter and vanilla; set bowl in ice bath, stirring occasionally, until completely chilled, 10 to 12 minutes. Cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly on surface of pastry cream to prevent a skin from forming. Place in refrigerator until ready to use.
