FAQ (Questions and Answers)

  • Can you use plant-based milk?

    Better not: the final texture changes too much. If you really want, try with whole unsweetened soy milk.

  • Can it be prepared without Bimby?

    Yes: beat the yolks with sugar, add flour and milk, cook over low heat while stirring.

  • Can I add cream to make it richer?

    Yes! You can replace 100 ml of milk with fresh liquid cream
