First of all: What on Earth happened with Queijadinhas, in North America?
I mean, just today, I have already got more than 10 searches for that recipe. It’s a Brazilian typical sweet, mostly unknown by the rest of the world (except for Portuguese people). Was it some kind of appearance in the News? Was it Martha Stewart or Nigella Lawson suggestion? Really, guys, I got really curious about that! XD
So, if you are one visitor who were looking for my Queijadinha recipe, please, leave a comment! Allow this poor Brazilian blogger discover what made Queijadinha so famous!
Well, now, off to today’s topic. Crème Anglaise is one of the basic dessert sauces. Dessert sauces can be both fruity or creamy. Among the fruity ones, there are the jams / compotes, which are cooked, and the coulis, which is the raw fruit’s sauce, made by puréeing and straining it. Among the creamy sauces, the most common are chocolate (like a fudge) or the vanilla custards. Crème Anglaises are among this later one, being it a liquid custard, made from milk, yolks, sugar and vanilla.
