Tips:
/Caramel Shell/
The general way to make caramel shells is to burn granulated sugar with a musket. I have seen a little video on the Internet about roasting a hot iron spoon and then using the spoon to blanch the sugar. Friends who don’t have a musket can try it!
/vanilla/
The pudding made with vanilla bean pods is more fragrant and mellow. If there is no vanilla bean pod, you can use vanilla extract or vanilla paste instead.
