FLAN DILEMA!!! please help!?

Question

ok so i made a flan yesterday and there wasnt enough caramel on it so today i just made some more caramel (melted sugar until it was an amber colored) amd poured it over the chilled flan hoping that i could serve it tomorrow

well when i poured the hot carmel over the cold flan it made all this sizzling noise and the caramel hardend just a bit

will it be edible tomorrow?

Answer 1

The caramel actually melted into the flan most likely and most likely you ruined the insides of the flan. You can still serve it. I don't see why not. This did not alter the taste.

Answer 2

well i was told that you cool the caramel with the flan mixture on the fridge.

Answer 3

You should have brought the flan to room temp first.

I don't know whether it will work. Just be careful.

Answer 4

it will be edible, just tell everyone you made your own version, called crunchy flan, who knows, this could be a big hit, some people like crunchy, good luck.

Answer 5

Call it Flan Brulee - a cross between Flan and Creme Brulee

Answer 6

It should be fine, it soften by tommorrow, which is what you want, as you don't want it crunchy. Serve it and enjoy.
