When it comes to culinary terms, sometimes things can get lost in translation. Take for example the French delicacy known as crème anglaise. The French have a way of making even the simplest dishes sound elegant and sophisticated. But what exactly is crème anglaise and what do we call it in English?

In English, crème anglaise is often referred to as "English cream" or "custard sauce." This rich and creamy sauce is a staple in French cuisine, commonly used as a topping for desserts such as fruit tarts, cakes, and pastries. Its smooth texture and subtle vanilla flavor make it a versatile accompaniment to a variety of sweet treats.

To make crème anglaise, a mixture of cream, egg yolks, sugar, and vanilla is gently heated until it thickens to a custard-like consistency. The key to a successful crème anglaise is to heat the mixture slowly and continuously stir to prevent curdling or burning. The end result should be a silky smooth sauce that is perfect for drizzling over your favorite desserts.

While the French may have their own fancy name for this delectable sauce, the English translation is just as delicious. Whether you call it crème anglaise or English cream, there's no denying the indulgent taste and luxurious texture of this classic dessert sauce.

So the next time you're enjoying a decadent dessert topped with a luscious sauce, remember that the French call it crème anglaise, but in English, we simply call it a delicious treat for your taste buds.

Whether you're a culinary connoisseur or just someone with a sweet tooth, crème anglaise is sure to delight your senses and leave you craving more. So go ahead, indulge in a little taste of France with a dollop of this creamy goodness on your next dessert creation.
