Tips
4.92 g of protein: the best score among the desserts in this aisle. The egg contributes directly. This is what makes this dessert more filling than a dessert cream with a similar composition.
124 kcal: one of the lightest in the aisle. Only the île flottante and the rice pudding do better.
14.4 g of sugars, all the same. A 125 g portion provides 18 g of sugars, nearly four sugar cubes. It is a sweet dessert, even without caramel.
Homemade, it takes three ingredients. Eggs, milk, sugar, cooked in a bain-marie at 160 °C. The sugar can be cut by a third without affecting the set: it is the egg that makes it coagulate, not the sugar.
It contains eggs and milk. Two major allergens, expected here but worth mentioning when serving guests.
