How to create a silky, lump-free custard?
Whisk the vanilla cream gently on the stovetop at first, then more vigorously as the cream thickens and begins to bubble. This change of pace gives you a silky, lump-free custard.
Let the cream cool for about 5 minutes, whisking every minute to release the steam and prevent a skin from forming. Pour while still hot for a smooth layer.
How can I make sure the slice lifts easily from the pan?
Line the square mold with baking paper and leave at least 20 cm overhang to be able to easily remove the slice.
How can I get a more uniform and evenly distributed custard in my slice?
Arrange the bread bases cut side up for better adhesion of the custard, then spread the custard evenly with an offset spatula.
How long will this slice of hot custard last?
Store the remaining slice, wrapped in plastic wrap, for up to 2 days in the refrigerator.
