    Tips & Variations:

    • Do not vigorously whisk the ingredients, it’s important to be gentle because you don’t want to form any extra air bubbles.
    • If you don’t want leave marks on the side of the flan, make sure the sugar is completely melted and not gritty. It should look like dark honey without any granules left..
    • Do not burn the sugar when making the caramel, it will give a burnt flavor to the leche flan.
    • Seperate the egg whites and yolks when you’re ready to use it. Exposing the egg yolks to the air will allow them to create a skin and they will become lumps that are difficult to melt.
