Mixed Fresh Berries Recipe

Crème Anglaise

1. 1

   Prepare the Base

   In a saucepan, combine the milk and heavy cream. Heat over medium until just below boiling.

2. 2

   Whisk the Yolks

   In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and sugar until the mixture is pale and slightly thickened.

3. 3

   Combine Mixtures

   Slowly pour the hot milk and cream mixture into the egg yolk mixture while whisking continuously to temper the eggs.

4. 4

   Cook the Mixture

   Return the combined mixture to the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.

5. 5

   Strain and Cool

   Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl to remove any cooked egg bits. Allow to cool before serving.
