Tips for a perfect dessert:
-
-
- Avoid lumps: When incorporating the flour and milk, mix constantly with a whisk to ensure a smooth and homogeneous texture.
- Control the fire: Always cook over medium-low heat to prevent the base of the dessert from burning or sticking to the bottom of the pot.
- Adjust the sweetness: If you prefer a less sweet dessert, slightly reduce the amount of sugar in the base or topping, depending on your taste.
- Ideal texture: If the mixture or topping is too thick, add small amounts of milk or water to adjust the consistency while still mixing.
