Leche Flan

This recipe is for Make-You-Forget-Your-Name Leche Flan. It has two main components - a caramel sauce and the flan. To make the caramel, sugar, water and vinegar are boiled until golden brown. This caramel is poured into a loaf pan or ramekins to coat the bottom. Then the flan, made from egg yolks, sugar and milk, is strained into the pan(s) and baked in a water bath for 40 minutes to 1 hour, until a knife inserted comes out clean. The flan is then cooled still in the water bath for 30 minutes before unmolding.

Ingredients

Caramel:

1 cup white sugar

1/8 cup water

1/8 white vinegar

Flan

8 egg yolks

¾ cup sugar

1½ cups fresh milk

Recipe:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Fill a 13x9 roasting pan halfway with water. Let heat inside the oven while
it preheats. This is the water bath.

2. Meanwhile, mix ingredients for caramel in a heavy-bottomed sauce pan. On medium heat, stir
until sugar has dissolved. Once mixture boils, do not stir. Let mixture boil until it becomes a light
golden brown. Immediately drizzle the caramel into a 9x5 loaf pan or into 2 llaneras. Tilt the pan(s)
so that the caramel completely covers the bottom(s).

3. In a bowl, thoroughly mix the flan ingredients. Strain mixture into the prepared pan(s). Place
mixture into pan(s). Cook in the water bath for 40 minutes, or until 1 hour. A knife inserted in the
middle of the flan should come out clean.

4. Cool the flan still in the water bath at room temperature for 30 minutes. Remove from the water
bath and un-mold onto a platter.
