The history of custard begins in the Roman Empire. At that time people combined eggs with some sweet ingredients, presumably honey.
This recipe was adopted by confectioners from the Middle Ages
.
Their custard was still far from what we have now. But, such cream began to improve. As
a result, people came to the concept of making sweet cream in the 18th century. It was used for many desserts. However, it entered into use tightly only in the XX century. Then analogs of sweet pastries in the form of pies and pancakes began to fade into the background.
Let’s tell you how to prepare a delicious custard with condensed milk.
