To prepare the flan, you typically combine the contents of this mix with milk and eggs. These ingredients are then whisked together until smooth. The mixture is usually poured into a mold that has been pre-caramelized with sugar. This is then baked in a water bath until the custard is set. Once cooled, the flan is inverted onto a serving plate, allowing the caramel sauce to cascade over the custard.
How it differs from similar foods
This mix offers a streamlined approach compared to making flan entirely from scratch. It pre-measures and combines key flavorings and stabilizers, ensuring a consistent result. Traditional methods might require more precise measurements of individual ingredients like gelatin or cornstarch for texture.
