Garlic Custard image

Entered for safe-keeping. Side for dinner from Julie Knudsen, from a newsgroup listing. This could be interesting as a dip for chicken tenders. (Updated 10/09/13: Based on a review, I recommend letting the garlic cream sauce cool to lukewarm before adding the eggs; the three eggs could also be whisked together and drizzled slowly, a bit at a time. It is highly recommended to maintain whisking of the garlic cream sauce while drizzling the egg, so another set of hands would be helpful.)

Time 45m

Yield 6 ramekins, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 cups heavy whipping cream
15 garlic cloves, peeled
6 egg yolks
1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Butter six 4-ounce ramekins.
  • Combine the cream and garlic in a heavy saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat to low and cook until the garlic is very soft, about 15 minutes.
  • Strain the liquid through a strainer placed over a bowl. Press the garlic through the strainer and into the cream. Whisk to combine. (Let cool to luke-warm before adding the egg yolks.).
  • Add the egg yolks one at a time, whisking continuously. (The egg yolks can be whisked together, and slowly drizzled into the garlic-cream sauce under constant whisking; this step is much easier with a helper.).
  • Add the cheese, salt and pepper.
  • Pour into the prepared ramekins. Place the ramekins in a baking dish and fill with water half way up the ramekins. Bake until set, 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Let cool slightly before unmolding.
  • Serves 6.
