Notes
If the caramel sticks to the bottom of the pan after flipping the flan, pour hot water over the pan to soften it.
Make sure the color of caramel syrup is neither too dark nor too light. The dark-colored caramel syrup symbolizes bitterness, whereas the light-colored caramel symbolizes tastelessness.
Try to refrigerate your crème caramel at least for a day. It will provide a fluffy texture allowing room for the perfect topping.Recipe Variations
You can use egg whites instead of the whole egg and flavor it with cinnamon sticks. This practice is very common in Cuba. Consequently, this variation is also known as ‘’Cuban flan’’.
You can also bake it without eggs. Eggless flan is mostly prepared by South Indians.
You may use coconut milk instead of whole milk.
