NOTES :
- Use a double boiler to scald the cream unless you have a heavy saucepan!. Use very low heat!. Milk scorches easily and, when scorched, should be thrown out!.

- Beat eggs or egg yolks with a wire whisk or beater!. Add sugar gradually and continue whipping until it is thoroughly mixed in!.

- NEVER add eggs directly to a hot mixture!. (unless you like scrambled eggs in cream!.) Pour some of the hot liquid into the eggs while stirring briskly, then return the warmed combination to the remaining hot liquid in the pan!.

- Stir the custard constantly over low heat until it acquires body!. Test it by letting it run off the back of a spoon; if a light coating clings to the spoon, the custard is finished!.

- Stir the custard occasionally as it cools to prevent a surface skin from forming!. When it is cool, chill it, covered lightly with a clean dish towel, in the refrigerator!.
