Making a pastry cream and lightening it up with whipped cream is our favorite method of making a custard. It is, as you write, incredibly smooth and silky--and one of the only things worthy of a vanilla pod. Your vacation sounds lovely, even if the trip back was a nightmare.
I just baked the shortbread and used ground ginger and candied ginger. So yummy, thanks for the inspiration!
So quick!! Amazing
Very nice. Can’t wait to make it.
Love the simplicity of this!
Totally agree, sometimes the simplest thing is the best

A lightened pastry cream is one of my favourite fillings, tastes like ice cream!
