奶茶(伯爵茶)布丁 Earl Grey Custard Pudding


信不信由你,我妹能夠在15秒嗑完這個布丁!!真是所謂「秒殺」~
極度建議一包用伯爵茶葉另一包用一般紅茶,因為伯爵茶能賦予布丁奢華香氣但是全用伯爵茶布丁會變很香卻沒味道。
我用蛋白而非蛋黃(大部份法式布蕾食譜)的原因是蛋黃的味道過於濃厚,貴遮蓋奶茶的香氣,而且用蛋白的話布丁會更加滑溜細緻~
Believe it or not, my sister can eat the pudding in 15 seconds!!
I highly reconmend you use a bag of Earl Grey with a bag of regular black tea because the Earl Gray brings the custard a luxurious aroma. However, if you replace all the tea with Earl Gray, the pudding turns out fragrant but tasteless.
The reason I use egg whites instead of yolks which are used in most of the crème brulée recipes is that the egg yolk would cover the flavor of black tea. The egg whites make pudding more smooth and delicate, too.
Hope you enjoy the dessert as much as my family does~

粉雪卷Pink meringue roll






這個蛋糕是個意外,因為我覺得食譜太多糖,就減了一半以上的糖吧~本來應該有脆脆的外皮,減糖後變得很柔軟,很好捲。
蛋白蛋糕入口即化像雪花!中間的夾餡冷凍後像雪糕一樣(但是蛋糕還是像雲一樣軟綿喔~)
不覺得春天就是個吃粉嫩色系甜點的季節嗎?
This pink meringue roll was an accident. The sugar added in the recipe was too much for me so I cut off more than 1/2 of the amount, that turn the crispy shell into a soft tender cake that is easy to roll.
The cake was so light that it would melt in your mouth immediately, like snow flakes!
If you freeze the cake, the filling would taste like ice-cream while the marine is still tender.
Don't you think spring is a lovely season to enjoy pink desserts?

卡士達(四種口味) Custard(four flavors)























我愛所有爆漿內餡的甜點!
以下是四個不同口味的卡士達醬,我常用在水果塔、杯子蛋糕、泡芙餡、蛋糕捲餡等等,卡式達醬永遠能為甜點加上滑順的好滋味~就像格子襯衫,百搭又不失優雅
上面是香草口味的圖(所以有一點一點黑黑的籽),我以後再上傳其他口味的圖~
我建議在步驟四(卡士達醬沸騰後)將醬過篩,這樣會濾出在煮卡士達時不小心產生的顆粒,讓你的將更加光滑柔亮(好像洗髮精廣告XD)
I LOVE all kinds of desserts that have creamy fillings!
Here are four different flavors of custard I use in many recipes like fruit tart, the topping of cup cake, the filling of puff and cake roll.....It always add a delightful sweetness to the dessert.
The picture above is vanilla flavor. I'll upload other flavors' picture next time~
recommend you to strain the custard through a fine-mesh sieve after the mixture is cooked( in step 4.). This will remove any curdled bits that might have formed during the cooking process and give you a smooth, glossy pastry cream. 
The recipe made about 1 cup of the custard but most recipe calls for 2-3 cups so just double or triple the size.
份量:  300g =1cup

原味Original

A. 蛋黃  1顆
B. 糖   30g
 C. 玉米粉/低筋麵粉   15g=2大匙
 D. 牛奶   200g
