  • This silky pastry cream, or Creme Patissiere, is a creamy custard packed with vanilla thats perfectly sweet and beyond dreamy. It's the iconic filling used in eclairs, cream puffs, mille feuille, and fruit tarts. Creme patissiere is one of my all-time favorite things to make! It has such a sophisticated taste that goes perfectly with everything! You can flavor it in all sorts of ways too so don't feel limited to just vanilla!

    I made a double batch of pastry cream to fill a sheet cake I was making for a first birthday party, for a paying client. I put it in the fridge, inside my house and went to my day job. Ten hours later I came back to a half empty container. My Mom says, oh, I ate some of your pudding. It was the best pudding I have ever had 😂😂 I made a new batch, that's why I make my cake components 3 days before delivery.

      Watching some videos how to make vanilla or banana pudding there is no much difference with the pastry cream. Some are very similar, some adds flavoring to do a fancy pudding or pastry.

    This has been my go to pastry cream recipe for a while now. Love it. I did read somewhere that if you whisk the sugar and corn starch together before adding the egg yolks, you don't get lumps and it's easier mixing, so that's my little trick!
    Love your videos 💜

    • @tammiemartinez6485
      @tammiemartinez6485 Před 2 lety +23

      I've done it that way too, lol. The last batch I made called for 2tbsp of butter but I wanted my pastry cream to come out of the fridge without it being a big blob that I had to re-whisk so I added 3 more tbsps. Not only was it not a blob, it was silky and it held its shape. Sometimes playing around with a recipe will give you a delightful dessert... 😋

      One of our fall holiday traditions has become a tart that uses pastry cream blended with crème de marron as one of the layers. If you haven't tried chestnut pastry cream (and you don't have a nut allergy, of course), I highly recommend it!

    This looks delicious! I LOVE how thorough he is with directions. He gives some great tips too, and explains the "why" of things. I may have to try this. Thumbs up, as always! (Helpful hint: I did not see him mention the ratio of a whole vanilla bean vs. vanilla extract. He may have mentioned it, and I just missed it. Here is the ratio for those using vanilla extract, in lieu of a vanilla bean. In lieu of a whole vanilla bean, you would use 1 tablespoon vanilla extract. Hope this helps).

    That corn starch trick is great for scrambled eggs. Gives you a wider window to work with when it comes to pulling them off the heat, as most people tend to take it off the heat when they are fully done, and not beforehand, allowing the residual heat to finish them on the plate.
