Cuisine: French

Some will tell you that the only true pastry chef flan is the Parisian flan! It is recognizable by its shortcrust pastry base supporting a light yellow layer covered by a browned top from baking. Its elasticity and freshness on the palate, with the delightful taste of vanilla milk, remind us of childhood and simple pleasures in life. Paris, like many other dishes, has mastered a proven recipe to create a culinary masterpiece, no matter how simple it is!
