Rich Baked Custard - cooking recipe

Ingredients

4 eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 quart whole milk, warmed

Preparation

Preheat oven to 325\u00b0F.
Combine all ingredients thoroughly, being careful to avoid incorporating too much air.
Divide custard between 6 ramekins. Place ramekins in a roasting pan. Place roasting pan on oven rack; pour hot water around ramekins until 1\" deep. Slide rack into oven.
Bake 45 min, or until custards are set, but the center still jiggles slightly, and the tip of a knife comes out clean when inserted into the center.
Serve warm or cold.
