Shivesh Bhatia Recreates Viral Flan in New Series
Shivesh Bhatia made a flan for a new video series.
The flan had become popular online.
People asked if the eggs could be replaced.
Eggs help the dessert become firm.
Viewers also asked if an oven was necessary.
Some wondered if an air fryer could be used instead.
Bhatia kept the oven and water-bath method.
This method provides gentle, steady heat and helps protect the flan’s texture.
Shivesh Bhatia recreated a viral flan for his “I Need To Try This” series.
Viewers asked whether the eggs could be replaced in the recipe.
Others asked if the flan could be made without an oven.
Some viewers wondered whether an air fryer could replace the water-bath method.
Bhatia retained the original oven-and-water-bath approach because changing the ingredients or cooking method can affect the custard’s texture.
