When pouring your milks, pour as close to the bowl as possible. This prevents aeration of the milk which result in smoother leche flan. Do not mix vigorously, mix gently. Do not skip the sieving steps as this releases air bubbles that have formed while mixing.

Storage tips

Store in chiller for 3-5 days. Recipe tips: Keep egg whites frozen for later use.
