I made a double batch of pastry cream to fill a sheet cake I was making for a first birthday party, for a paying client. I put it in the fridge, inside my house and went to my day job. Ten hours later I came back to a half empty container. My Mom says, oh, I ate some of your pudding. It was the best pudding I have ever had 😂😂 I made a new batch, that's why I make my cake components 3 days before delivery.

Watching some videos how to make vanilla or banana pudding there is no much difference with the pastry cream. Some are very similar, some adds flavoring to do a fancy pudding or pastry.

Do we want to talk about his artistically smoothly explaining skills?

John, you are my" go to man" when it comes to almost every dessert possible. Im rarely disappointed. Many thanks.

I watch a lot of cooking channels on KZread, but seriously, you give the absolute best instructions.

This has been my go to pastry cream recipe for a while now. Love it. I did read somewhere that if you whisk the sugar and corn starch together before adding the egg yolks, you don't get lumps and it's easier mixing, so that's my little trick! Love your videos 💜

I've done it that way too, lol. The last batch I made called for 2tbsp of butter but I wanted my pastry cream to come out of the fridge without it being a big blob that I had to re-whisk so I added 3 more tbsps. Not only was it not a blob, it was silky and it held its shape. Sometimes playing around with a recipe will give you a delightful dessert... 😋

One of our fall holiday traditions has become a tart that uses pastry cream blended with crème de marron as one of the layers. If you haven't tried chestnut pastry cream (and you don't have a nut allergy, of course), I highly recommend it!

If you mixed all cold egg, sugar, corn starch, and add slow the cold milk , put all on the heat after,don't worrie about lumps they will disolve in the process

You and your partners children are so blessed, the way you explain the what, how and why is perfection.

You make the best tutorials. All you tips and real time makes baking much easier to follow and metric yay! Thanks from Australia 👏🏻👏🏾❣

Made this recipe at least a dozen times and every time it turns out perfect! Super easy video to follow along during the cooking process! 10 out of 10 recommend as a cake filling!

I gotta ask: how do you remain so lean? All this delicious food! And that fabulous kitchen?! Just WOW! ❤❤❤

OMG! I love this guy! He's such a great cook and all of the recipes I have tried come out fantastic ! He explains everything so well and you can TRUST his advice and recipes! LOVE MR. PREPPY !!

i made this recipe today, it was my first time making custard it was perfect the taste and the texture and easy ! i recommend for everyone to try the recipe you’ll not regret it🤤💕..thank you for the recipe.!

This looks delicious! I LOVE how thorough he is with directions. He gives some great tips too, and explains the "why" of things. I may have to try this. Thumbs up, as always! (Helpful hint: I did not see him mention the ratio of a whole vanilla bean vs. vanilla extract. He may have mentioned it, and I just missed it. Here is the ratio for those using vanilla extract, in lieu of a vanilla bean. In lieu of a whole vanilla bean, you would use 1 tablespoon vanilla extract. Hope this helps).

Vanilla Pod: "Oh, use me. Use me!"" John: "I love seeing these vanilla beans - it makes me soooo happy..." I would pay top dollar to witness that vanilla-pod nonsense...thanks for the video and the science lesson. You are so amazingly talented - I mean: passion fruit pastry cream! The defense rests.

I came across Lady fingers at the grocery and thought I should try making a Tiramisu. Never made it, or pastry cream for that matter. So much fun to make. And, way easier than I expected. Going to make another for Christmas because my husband loved it so much. Thank for ideas to make it even better.

I made this for a get together. I made a lemon and pistachio version. Everyone loved it! Thanks for the recipe.

i love your channel soooooo much. especially, because you always get straight to the point at the beginning of the video.. no lollygagging around. ..and all of the recipes are easy to follow and deeeeelishhhhus!! ..much love!.. and thanx!!

I’ve made pastry cream for the first time successfully thanks to this recipe and video. All your tips and notes helped to really understand what to do and what things are supposed to look like. I looked at the clock and back at my pan and the texture turned on me, recipes like this feel like magic

I can't wait to try making this delicious cream for cream puffs or profiteroles! Thank you for all the tips Preppy!

Yummy! I too am a big fan of pastry cream! It’s so versatile like you mentioned. I like it thinned out as a bottom/sauce to a pastry. Thanks for sharing John!🙋🏾‍♀️

what a majestic kitchen

I always wanted to see a tutorial on making this, thank you! It is fun to watch your enthusiasm!

Love the quality of your videos lately! You’ve been killing it, didn’t know it could have gotten any better. The sciencey bit about the protein was cool :)

John I love how you explain everything

That looked and sounded incredible! Just as a "pudding" treat even! The thing I really enjoyed was getting a science lesson about proteins and denaturing. I may try making a tart for Easter this coming April. This sounds like a winner. Thanks!

Such a satisfying video to watch! You are an excellent teacher Mr. Kanell.

I like how you explains the recipe ! You inspires to live in the kitchen!

Thanks for the practicality of food science lessons w/cooking this. Great job!

Yes... any kind of homemade pastry cream... it's a beautiful thing.. thank you so much.. you're a good teacher

I love pastry cream. I make lots of pastries for my family with it. Thank you for sharing your yummy recipe!❤️

I love your channel. My family appreciates all you've taught me.

Thank you for this recipe! I followed your flag cake recipe for the 4th of July and had 6 egg yolks leftover. Perfect recipe for those leftover egg yolks. This pastry cream is delicious with fresh fruit.

Made this. Absolutely delicious! Thank you chef 🥰

Thank You so much you did an amazing job of showing and explaining how to do it and why you should make it! Bravo 👏

This recipe is awesome. Thanks! I had leftover bananas and made an incredible banana cream pie using this recipe, a graham cracker crust, and fresh whipped cream. It was delicious.

Pastry cream is just so great to have around! I usually end up putting it in trifles or icebox cakes, but I really love when I have the time to also make chocolate pudding so I can have DIY pudding packs!

Can you fill doughnuts with the pastry cream

i've made this recipe of your so many times and comes out perfect and delicious every time. Thank you

My mom was just asking me about this a couple of days ago. She said that in 85 years she had never made it. I will share it, as this pastry cream turns out perfectly. About time to make the yearly eclairs for DH's birthday for his friends at work, so it was nice to have a refresher.

Thanks John 😊 I’ve been looking for a really good pastry cream recipe to use as I am attempting to try making pate a choux one of these days. Can’t wait to try it - looks exquisite 🌷

I began making this at 12 yo and have continued for 50 years. Yes, I'm that old. Obviously, I love this stuff! Your copper collection is nice. I am an antiques buff and collected copper over the years. I enjoy using it daily. Have fun in all you do!

I'm here for the food science lesson today! It's so interesting to me learning how and why things happen in food and cooking/baking. It's my mum's birthday in a couple of days so I'll be giving this recipe a try!

This is the most delicious thing I’ve ever made in my life. Thank you for the recipe!

Yum John! Pastry cream is so good! I love having it with so many different pastries. It even tastes great just by the spoon! Thanks for this recipe! 😋 😋 😋

@@odilemeijers7344 Expresso powder is used to allow the creamy milk benefit for the silkiness of your pastry custard. Recommend 2 Tblsp. powder added to the milk mixture after it is warm and before tempering eggs.

That corn starch trick is great for scrambled eggs. Gives you a wider window to work with when it comes to pulling them off the heat, as most people tend to take it off the heat when they are fully done, and not beforehand, allowing the residual heat to finish them on the plate.

Thanks John it's something I've always wanted to make watching has given me confidence always enjoy trying your videos out in the kitchen with my 8 year old nephew

you explain the steps so well and clearly.

I make it often but I prefer lemon zest or better natural lemon abstract instead of vanilla, so much better, instead of the strainer I put it in a processor, not only does it make it smooth but it also cools it down.

I think I can use this cream recipe very well!!!I'm always learning well!Thank you for the detailed explanation and great recipe❤

I just made it it tastes amazing sweetness is perfect thank you for sharing this recipe ❤

MMMMMMMMM!!! So simple and yet so decadent! Love all things you create!

In the off chance that you do read this, you have become one of my go to pastry chefs I love to follow. I am hoping that you might have a few recipes that might use mangos. As they are currently in season. I was thinking something like a mango mousse or a mango creme brulee. Thank you !!!

I love that adorable little cutting board!

My need for this is like Now! I'm making a Italian Rum Cake this week. I have printed this out, I'm going to use this recipe for Eclairs and Cream Puffs. Thanks John, been following you for several years now. Keep up the good work.

Best recipe for pastry cream! Thank you 😊

I was just about to make éclairs and this is perfect!!!

John, it is so nice to see how your channel is evolving. The production has always been great but you can tell how it has also changed to a more funny yet informative style. Love your channel, greetings from Costa Rica!

So many good tips for a regular (keen) home baker like me - thanks from Melbourne Australia!

I made 1/3 of this recipe but with vanilla extract and no butter. It turned out exactly how I wished it to turn out, yummy stuff!

Just tried out this recipe to use as a filling in my sourdough bagels, it turned out AMAZING! Thank You. 😍

Love your biochemistry explanation 🥰🥰🥰🥰

I LOVE PASTRY CREAM!! I could eat it on an old shoe lol Love this recipe …making it asap Thank you again John

Made pastry cream from you old video last weekend, glad to see an improved version!

Thank you so much for you great videos. This is one of my favorites!

I made your vanilla cream pie recipe for my mother-in-law for Mother's day - huge hit! Even with having to swap out some ingredients for keto alternatives, it was still fabulous! Plus I've also made your turtle cheesecake multiple times already, with another request today ... perfect every time! Be sure to put your pan with water in your oven during the preheat process so you don't have to risk pouring or moving hot water, it's already waiting for you in the oven!
