When I was little, Sunday afternoons would always be spent having tea at my nana and grandad’s house with all of the family. My grandad was a keen and adventurous baker and would have apple crumbles, rhubarb crumbles, scones and trifle on the table without fail. He could always be relied upon to have a big jug of homemade custard, in a Pyrex jug, ready for us all to devour. This is the famous custard, done the proper way, with lots for everyone, because who doesn’t love custard… Thick, creamy and goes with so many desserts and cakes, and not forgetting the old favourite, bananas and custard 😋
