Chef's Notes
Do not rush the sifting process for your homemade powder. Sifting incorporates air and ensures your thickener disperses evenly without forming frustrating little dough balls in your milk.
Pro Tip
Always mix your custard powder with cold or room temperature milk first. Pouring dry powder straight into hot milk is a guaranteed one-way ticket to Lumpy Town.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Leaving your custard uncovered in the fridge while it chills, resulting in a tough, rubbery skin forming on top that ruins the velvety mouthfeel.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy

The Culinary Science
Cornstarch contains long chains of starch molecules called amylose and amylopectin. When heated in liquid, these molecules swell and trap water in a process called gelatinization, transforming runny milk into luxurious custard.
