INSTRUCTIONS
How to Prepare the Caramel: In a small heavy-bottomed saucepan, mix together the sugar and water. Cook the sugar over high heat until the syrup turns a light amber color. Immediately pour into a shallow five-cup baking dish, swirling to coat the bottom and sides of the dish. How to Prepare the Flan: Preheat the oven to 300 F. In a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan bring the milk, vanilla bean, and half the sugar to a boil. Place the remaining sugar, eggs and egg yolks in a medium bowl, and whisk until just blended. Temper the hot milk mixture into the egg mixture, and pass through a fine strainer into the prepared dish. Bake in a water bath for 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until just set and a knife inserted comes clean. Refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight. To unmold, run a thin knife between the custard and the inside of the baking dish. Place a serving plate upside-down over the pan, and invert the pan with a firm, yet smooth shake. © 1997 Lifetime Entertainment Services. All rights reserved.

A Message from our Provider:
“A cheerful spirit is one of the most valuable gifts ever bestowed upon humanity by a kind Creator. It is the sweetest and most fragrant flower of the Spirit, that constantly sends out its beauty and fragrance, and blesses everything within its reach. It will sustain the soul in the darkest and most dreary places of this world. It will hold in check the demons of despair, and stifle the power of discouragement and hopelessness. It is the brightest star that ever cast its radiance over the darkened soul, and one that seldom sets in the gloom of morbid fancies and forboding imaginations.”
