Egg Yolk Pudding

Preparation

Make a caramel with sugar and water and use to coat a mold. In a pan, make a syrup from the sugar and water and cook to the thread stage. Beat the egg yolks and gradually whisk in the syrup, in a thin stream. Strain into the caramel-coated mold. Bake in a pan of water in the oven at 150ºC / 302ºF for about 20 minutes. When set, remove from the oven, leave to cool and turn out.

This delicious, fudge-like, highly sweet candy needs a wine in a class of its own. We suggest a Muscatel made in Marina Alta in Alicante, which has the acidity needed to give balance.
