Baked Saffron Custard With Orange And Rose Water

Ingredients

• 2 quarts milk or heavy cream
• 5 egg whites
• 10 egg yolks
• 1 pound granulated sugar
• 0.5 ounce ground cinnamon
• 1 pinch salt
• 1 pinch saffron threads
• Juice of 4-5 oranges
• 2 tablespoons white wine
• 1 teaspoon rose water
• 1 teaspoon ground ginger

Method

1. 1 Preheat oven to 350°F. Whisk together milk, egg whites, egg yolks, sugar, cinnamon, salt, and saffron until well combined.
2. 2 Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a deep baking dish to remove any lumps or saffron bits.
3. 3 Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 30-40 minutes, or until the custard is set but still slightly jiggly in the center.
4. 4 Remove from oven and immediately spoon the orange juice, white wine, rose water, and ginger over the hot custard before serving.
