Sous Vide Caramel Flan
Ingredients
  • 3/4 cup white sugar
  • 8 4-ounce Mason® jars with lids and rings
  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 (12 fluid ounce) can evaporated milk
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Instructions
1
Insert the sous vide cooker into a large heat-resistant vessel filled with water, making sure it's fully submerged. Heat the water to 179 degrees Fahrenheit (82 degrees Celsius) for a thorough preheating.
2
Melt sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat until it reaches a deep amber color, taking approximately 5 minutes. Carefully pour the hot sugar mixture into eight 4-ounce Mason jars, covering the bottom of each container.
3
Combine sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, eggs, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl. Fill each jar with the mixture, sealing them tightly.
4
Submerge the jars into the preheated water bath and set a timer for 1 hour to allow the mixture to cook slowly.
5
After the cooking time has elapsed, carefully remove the jars from the water bath. Allow the flan to cool down until it's safe to handle, taking around 20 minutes.
6
Unscrew the lids of the jars and gently scrape the sides with a small rubber spatula to release any residual mixture.
7
Place a serving plate on top of each flan, invert the jar, and gently shake it to release the flan onto the plate.
