Traditional Mexican Meal New Years Day 2018
Looks delicious! What a great introduction to a traditional Mexican meal. I’ve been to Cozumel and sampled some amazing food there and I continue to love and enjoy Mexican food, though I’ve surprisingly not had flan 🍮... the flan recipe looks like it may be similar to the baked custard my Nanna used to make for me in England and so I’ll have to give it a try 😊
It's definitely worth a try, but it is more like creme caramel than baked custard. Which reminds me, anyone got a custard tart you can send me? I can't find one here, and 20 years is a long time to go without something I used to have every week or two. That and lardie cake.
Trust me, I'm a doctor.
Leave it to you to find a way to use a lovely comment to beg for food. You have absolutely no shame.
It would appear that @catweasel is always hungry 😋
Lol... you mean I’m mixing my gelatinous desserts 🍮 I’m not sure I’ve ever had Lardy cake but plenty of treacle pudding and custard 👍🏻
Flan has a lot of egg in it too, so if you don't like the texture of cooked egg, you may not like the texture of flan. @catweasel is correct though in that there is a good bit of caramel.
Baked custard is set. Flan is more like soft jelly in texture.
Trust me, I'm a doctor.
