Ingredients

2 eggs 75 grams sugar (approx. 1/3 cup) 60 ml tangerine juice 1 tsp tangerine zest 1 tsp cornstarch 50 grams butter cut into squares

Instructions

Step 1

In a small pot, place 5 cm of water to make a bain-marie. On top of this, place a container suitable for a bain-marie without touching the water and place the eggs, sugar, tangerine juice and zest and cornstarch. Bring to moderate-low heat until the cream thickens and stirring constantly (approx. 5 to 8 minutes). Transfer to another container and sift the cream to remove tangerine zest and any egg clots that could form.

Step 2

Add the butter cut into squares that will melt with the residual heat and stir until you get a homogeneous cream. Cover with transparent film in direct contact with the cream so that a thick layer does not form. Refrigerate for a minimum of two hours to achieve greater consistency.
