Tips

  • How to Know When Custard Is Properly Set

    This method is used in our Fiji Custard Pie Recipe (Island-Style, Authentic) to ensure clean slicing.

    Custard is ready when it coats the spoon and holds its shape briefly before settling.

    Key Tips

    • Spoon test: custard should not drip quickly
    • Surface should look glossy, not watery
    • Custard thickens more as it cools

    Common Mistakes

    • Removing from heat too early
    • Expecting final thickness while hot

    This method ensures custard that sets cleanly and slices well.
