Steps for preparing milk cream flavored with lemon
To prepare the delicious milk cream flavored with lemon, start by washing a lemon thoroughly.
Then take a bowl and crack an egg, pour the milk and beat vigorously with the whisk. Add the sugar and, little by little, the sifted flour and the grated zest of one lemon, and mix with the whisk for 5 minutes.
You should obtain a smooth and lump-free mixture. Then, pour into a saucepan and bring to a boil, stirring constantly with the whisk or a wooden spoon, until boiling. Let it boil for two minutes on low heat or until the cream reaches the same density as custard.
Remove the cream from the heat and pour into a bowl or a glass jar. Cover with plastic wrap in contact with the surface of the cream to prevent a crust from forming. Let it cool to room temperature, and the milk cream flavored with lemon is ready to garnish your desserts.
Storage and Tips
Choose fresh whole milk and untreated lemons for the best taste and aroma in the cream.
If you desire a more intense lemon flavor, add lemon juice to the cream once cooked. Taste and adjust the ingredients according to your preferences.
Store the cream in the refrigerator to keep it fresh and enjoy it within two days. Before serving, stir gently to return to the desired consistency.
