LECHE FLAN how it was originated

Leche flan, a beloved dessert in the Philippines, is a decadent and creamy custard dish with a caramelized sugar topping. Its origins trace back to Spanish colonial influence, evolving into a Filipino culinary staple. Made from a simple combination of egg yolks, condensed milk, evaporated milk, and sugar, it's the careful cooking process that elevates this treat to a heavenly level.

Prepared by mixing the ingredients and pouring the mixture into individual llaneras (metal molds), it's then steamed until set, resulting in a velvety smooth texture. The magic happens when the caramelized sugar syrup is poured into the molds before steaming, creating a luscious golden layer on top.

Served cold, leche flan delights with its rich, creamy flavor and delicate sweetness. It's often enjoyed during special occasions like fiestas, birthdays, and holidays, symbolizing warmth, celebration, and togetherness. Whether homemade or bought from local vendors, leche flan holds a special place in Filipino hearts, bringing comfort and joy with every indulgent spoonful.
