Description

A traditional egg tart served in Hong Kong. It’s listed as #16 on The World’s 50 Most Delicious Foods as compiled by CNN Go.

Ingredients

  • 1-½ cup Water
  • ¾ cups Sugar
  • 4 whole Eggs
  • ¼ cups Evaporated Milk
  • ½ teaspoons Vanilla
  • 24 whole 3-inch Prepared Tart Shells

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 425ºF. Bring the water and sugar to a boil in a medium saucepan. Remove from the heat and set it aside to cool.

Next beat the eggs in a large bowl and add the evaporated milk. Pour in the sugar water and mix thoroughly. Finally, mix in the vanilla.

Place the tart shells on a baking sheet. Pour the custard through a sieve into the shells.

These were great! The texture was custard-y and perfect and, like the ones I had in Shanghai.

These taste fine but there is nothing very exciting about them to me. :(
