Mousseline Cream, Fancier Than Pastry Cream


Today I'm using pure vanilla extract and I will explain in the note below how to use a real vanilla bean for mousseline cream. First, warm milk in the pan. Cream egg yolks and sugar. Then sift in flour and whisk to combine. Finally mix in vanilla and a pinch of salt.
