Strawberries and Cream Cups
Macerated strawberries under softly whipped cream, Wimbledon in a glass. Smooth, wobbly and elegant — restaurant-simple, home-easy. Serve chilled, straight from the fridge, in small glasses or ramekins.
Ingredients
- Heavy Cream1/4 cup
- Salta pinch
- Milk2 cups
- Sugar1 tsp
- Vanilla Extract1 cup, chopped
- Strawberries2 cups, hulled and sliced
Instructions
- 1
Gather everything before you start — custards punish multitasking.
- 2
Warm the milk with the heavy cream gently until steaming, not boiling, so the base stays smooth.
- 3
Combine the strawberries with the sugar; stream in the hot milk slowly so nothing curdles.
- 4
Stir over medium-low until it visibly thickens, eight to ten minutes — patience here is everything.
- 5
Chill until fully set — overnight is best — and finish with a scatter of sugar.
Chef's tip
Weigh your flour if you can; cup measures can be off by twenty percent either way.
