Tips:
Tips:
1. When buying vanilla bean pods, they should be kept tightly sealed, so that they feel oily and wet to the touch.
2. Take out the pods of vanilla seeds and put them in the pot and cook them, and take them out after cooking.
3. When mixing in step 4, the liquid temperature is relatively high, so it needs to be done in a small amount to avoid causing the egg yolks to become granular or to stand for 5 minutes before the temperature drops slightly.
4. Step 5 is the most critical step in the whole process. After the temperature rises, the liquid circulation is poor. Only continuous stirring can prevent the mixture from separating and appearing in granular form.
5. British cream sauce cools quickly to prevent bacteria from being generated in a higher room temperature environment
6. After quickly cooling the room temperature environment, cover it with cling film, which can also prevent ice slag from being generated when the temperature difference is large.
