Yema

Ingredients

• 10 egg yolks
• 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
• 1 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup water
• 1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar

Steps

1. 1

   In a bowl, combine egg yolks and condensed milk. Stir together until well-blended.

2. 2

   In a non-stick pan over low heat, transfer egg and milk mixture. Cook, stirring regularly, until thick enough to form shape. Continuously scrape bottom and sides of pan to prevent burning.

3. 3

   Remove from heat and allow to cool. Shape into 1-inch balls.

4. 4

   In a pan, combine sugar, water, and vinegar. Stir until sugar is dissolved.

5. 5

   Bring to a boil. Cook until the liquid turns amber color, swirling the pan occasionally for even cooking.

6. 6

   Drop the custard balls one by one into the caramel and turn gently to coat. With a fork, immediately remove coated yema and place in a single layer on a non-stick baking sheet.

7. 7

   Allow to cool and wrap individually in cellophane.
