Best English Cream With Dark Rum Recipes

SPICED RUM CREME ANGLAISE

Steps:

• Whisk the egg yolks in a small bowl until smooth and pale.
• In a small saucepan, combine the milk, sugar and vanilla.
• Stir over medium heat.
• Remove from the heat just before the milk starts to boil.
• While whisking, slowly pour the hot milk into the yolks.
• Pour the mixture back into the saucepan.
• Cook over low heat, stirring continually with a wooden spoon, until the mixture thickens and coats the back of the spoon.
• Let cool completely.
• Add the rum.
• Refrigerate until ready to use.

THE ORIGINAL EGGNOG

Steps:

• In a very large bowl, beat egg yolks until thick and pale yellow. Gradually add sugar to yolks. With a wire whisk, beat in milk and 1 quart cream. Add bourbon, rum, and cognac, stirring constantly.
• Just before serving, beat egg whites until stiff. Fold into mixture. Whip remaining heavy cream until stiff and fold in. Sprinkle with nutmeg.

RUM WHIPPED CREAM

Steps:

• Whip the cream in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. When it starts to thicken, add the sugar, vanilla, and rum. Continue to whip until it forms stiff peaks. Serve cold.

ENGLISH CREAM WITH DARK RUM

Steps:

• Place the yolks in a saucepan and add the sugar. Beat with a wire whisk until thick and lemon colored.
• Heat the milk and the vanilla in a saucepan. Do not boil.
• Gradually add the milk to the yolks. Cook over medium heat with a wooden spatula, swirling and scraping constantly to keep the mixture moving. Draw your index finger along the back of the spatula. If the mixture parts cleanly and stays parted, the correct consistency has been reached. This occurs at about 185 degrees.
• Pour the mixture through a fine-meshed strainer into a small bowl. Cool at room temperature, stirring occasionally to maintain smoothness.
• Add the rum, if desired, and refrigerate.
