Silky, golden, and just the right side of indulgent – custard is the quiet hero of the pudding world. Poured warm over sponge, fruit crumble, or even a sneaky slice of cake, it turns something simple into proper comfort food.
Make it the old-fashioned way with egg yolks, sugar, and a splash of vanilla, stirred gently until it coats the back of a spoon. Or take the quick route with a trusty tin or packet – there’s no shame here, only comfort.
Best served in generous quantities, because nobody ever asks for less custard.
