Steps
Read instructions and get ready to cook
Preheat oven
Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C). Place 6 custard cups or ramekins in a large baking dish.
Whisk eggs, sugar, and salt
In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, sugar, and salt until well combined.
Heat milk
In a saucepan, heat milk over medium heat until steaming, but not boiling.
Temper eggs
Gradually pour the hot milk into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to temper the eggs.
Add vanilla
Stir in vanilla extract.
Strain mixture
Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any lumps.
Pour into custard cups
Divide the mixture evenly among the custard cups.
Sprinkle nutmeg
Sprinkle a pinch of nutmeg over each custard.
Prepare water bath
Pour hot water into the baking dish until it reaches halfway up the sides of the custard cups.
Bake custards
Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the custards are set but still slightly jiggly in the center.
Cool and serve
Remove the custards from the water bath and let cool to room temperature. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
