Slowly pour one-half cup of the warm milk mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly. Whisk in an additional one-half c up of the milk mixture to fully temper the yolks.

Ask a question about this stepthanks KB -- I'll have to try a little soft cheese with some acacia honey on bread -- sounds like the perfect dessert...
hi mrs l! sorry about the delay in getting back to you - Acacia Honey is sweet and delicate with a very very subtle hint of vanilla, I like it because it is not an overwhelming heavy honey taste, but has nice little hits of floral....=)
I love acacia honey. These flavors sound like they'll be great together. Will try soon!
thx healthierkitchen -- let me know how it turns out! (Your springiest potato salad looks delicious as well!)
Thanks! I don't seem to get notification so I don't know when there's been another comment.
Love this recipe.....I can imagine the tang of the goats cheese and acacia is my best honey....on a bit of soft cheese and bread - heaven. I like the fact that the flavour is sweet but not overpowering
