INSTRUCTIONS
In a mixing bowl, combine the egg yolks, cornstarch, and 1 cup of the heavy
cream. Whisk to blend well. Set aside. Combine the remaining 2 cups cream,
lemon juice and sugar in a large heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat.
Whisk to dissolve the sugar and bring to a gentle boil, about 10 minutes.
Slowly add the egg yolk mixture, whisking constantly until it thickens,
about 5 minutes. Be forewarned: the mixture will break. Don't be alarmed.
Pour it into a glass bowl. Press a piece of plastic wrap directly on the
surface of the mixture to prevent a skin from forming. Let cool completely
at room temperature. When cooled pour the mixture into the bowl of an
electric mixer fitted with a wire whip. Beat at medium speed to combine the
mixture. If it will not combine, warm another 1/2 cup heavy cream and
slowly add it to the mixture. Whip until you have a thick and creamy
custard. This recipe yields about 3 1/2 cups.
