This Austrian home-style milk dessert is made by pouring a milk-and-egg mixture over caramelized sugar, then steaming it in small molds in a pressure cooker. Using a pressure cooker significantly shortens the cooking time compared with baking in the oven.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Caramelize the Sugar

6 min

Melt half of a 200 ml measure of sugar in a dry saucepan over low heat for 6 minutes, gently swirling the pan until it becomes an amber caramel. Divide it among the molds.

2

Prepare the Custard

5 min

Whisk the milk, eggs, remaining sugar, and vanilla together. Pour evenly into the caramel-lined molds.

3

Steam in the Pressure Cooker

15 min

Place the molds in the pressure cooker’s steamer basket, add water underneath, and close the lid. Once it comes to a boil, cook over low heat for 15 minutes.

4

Cool and Unmold

120 min

After slowly releasing the steam, let the molds cool and refrigerate for 2 hours. Turn out onto plates to serve.

Reminder

Important: Do not stir the sugar while caramelizing it; gently swirl the saucepan instead, or the sugar may crystallize and clump. Allergen: contains egg and milk.
