Flan Mexicano Mexican Flan
This Mexican flan recipe was given to me by my mother-in-law, who is from Durango, Mexico. I had to beg her for years to give me this custard recipe — she finally gave it to me one Christmas. I like to add orange zest, but the original dessert recipe calls for just pure vanilla.
