Where to find Vanilla Custard like Paul's ??

[hdom]

Looking for a liquid form of Vanilla Custard, usually my recipe calls for custard powder + milk + Vanilla extract, heard the custard is more flavorful but they don't seem to be very available in Canada.

don't use custard powder

find a vanilla custard recipe which uses egg, milk, vanilla bean, etc
- no need for cornstarch which thickens the milk, egg, etc to make custard

Yeah if you want then no need of using custard powder. You can make it with either 1/2 pint (290ml) full-cream milk or 1/4 pint (150ml) single cream and 1/4 pint (150ml) milk
1 vanilla pod, slit open
1 whole egg
2 egg yolks
1-2oz (30-55g) castor sugar
Preparation: Put milk and cream (if using) into a pan with the vanilla pod. Bring gently to the boil, reduce heat to as low as possible, and pull the pan half off. Cover and leave to infuse for 20-30 minutes.
Whisk the egg and yolks with the sugar. Pour the hot milk (still with the vanilla pod in it) slowly on to the mixture, whisking constantly. Rinse out the milk pan and return the mixture to it. Stir over a low heat, scraping into the corners of the pan every now and then, until the custard has thickened and coats the back of a spoon evenly. Do not let it boil. Whisk quickly with a wire whisk to even out the texture, then strain (to remove not only the vanilla pod, but also any strings of white that have formed) into a cool bowl.
