BOILED CUSTARD

roiler
1 Gallon of Whole Milk
1 dozen lg eggs (seperated)
1/2 cup flour
3 cups sugar
Vanilla

Heat milk in a large bowl in microwave for about 10 min. In a large double broiler mix together Sifted Flour and Sugar. and bring water in double boiler to a boil. Stir in hot milk and stir constantly until it begins to thicken. Put the 12 egg yolks in a bowl and stir in a little of the hot mixture then add to big pan and stirl for another 10 minutes or so. The custard will get thicker the longer you cook it. Remove from heat and add in vanilla to taste. We use a couple of teaspoons. Pour custard through a strainer with a funnel under it going into a gallon jug or glass canister. Then refrigerate. Sometimes I por some in a coffee mug and drink it hot. It is so soothing and yummy. We also free aome and when we serve it we scoop ou some frozen and then pour the refridgerated custard over it. Yummy Yummy!
this is a family recipe that has been made for many tears. Allen makes about 5 gallons of this every year at Christmas to give away because so many people like it and want it. He is famous for his boiled custard.
