A little off topic, but if there’s any southern U.S. Freepers about tonight - what the heck is “southern boiled custard”? My local grocery store is carrying it by the half-gallon, right next to the eggnog. Is it sort of the same thing as ‘nog, or something else?
“southern boiled custard”
I had never heard it called that. Looking at the recipes online I would say it is just an egg custard. I don’t know what makes it especially “Southern”. Especially considering it doesn’t have butter in it! ;P
You found this at the supermarket? I love custard, but I never fine any outside of cafeterias and that isn’t the case anymore either. Perhaps us Texans don’t eat that much custard anymore so nobody sells it.
