Parmesan Flan
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
- 2 cups dairy bechamel, made with 1 1/4 cups milk and 3/4 cup heavy cream, warm
- 1 pinch kosher salt
- 1 pinch white pepper
- 2 large eggs, plus 2 yolks
- Preheat the oven 350 degrees F. Spray an 8 x 12-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray, or butter it.
- Add the parmesan and cayenne to the bechamel and blend.
- Adjust the salt, if necessary, and season with pepper.
- In a medium bowl, beat the eggs and yolks until well combined.
- Gradually add the bechamel mixture.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, cover tightly with foil and transfer to a roasting pan.
- Add enough boiling water to come halfway up the side of the pan.
- Place in the oven and bake until the flan is just set (the mixture will jiggle slightly when moved), 50 to 60 minutes.
- Check after 45 minutes.
- Let the flan rest for 15 minutes, cut and serve.
