- Rhoda Yee's comments: It is important which the ingredients for the filling be at room temperature and beaten over a bowl of hot water.
- Cool ingredients will cause filling to separate during baking. By skimming off the foam, the custard will have a golden brown, creamy appearance with a velvety smooth texture that is a most unique and delightful gastronomic treat! Don't bake at high heat, this will cause the custard to bubble up like a balloon and burst.
