This sounds amazing Lars. I am most impressed with your baking this Leche flan. I sounds very similar to a Creme Caramel and that is one of my favourite desserts. I like the fact that you have included the recipe, method and step by step by step photos. Well done! What shape is a llanera pan?
ReplyDeleteYour Leche Flan looks delicious, Lars. Your recipe for your baking at Home task is clearly set out and the photos are excellent. I agree with Mrs Rhodes that your Leche Flan is similar to a Creme Caramel.
ReplyDeleteDid you know that Step 9 of the recipe that describes how the Flan is cooked is called the "waterbath" method?
