How to cook deliciously - Banana Pudding with Ladyfingers

1. Stage

Combine milk, eggs, and egg yolks in a medium saucepan over low heat. Beat well and heat until hot to the touch but not boiling, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat.

2. Stage

Combine sugar and salt in the top of a double boiler over simmering water. Slowly add milk mixture, stirring frequently. Cook and stir, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching, until smooth and as thick as heavy cream, 8 to 10 minutes. Add butter, vanilla, and almond extract; stir until butter melts.

3. Stage

Strain custard mixture through a sieve into a large bowl. Lay a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface and place in the refrigerator until completely cooled, at least 2 hours.

4. Stage

Slice bananas into 3/4-inch thick pieces. Place in a bowl and sprinkle with orange juice.

5. Stage

Arrange 1/2 of the ladyfingers in the bottom of a trifle bowl. Arrange 1/2 of the banana slices over the ladyfingers and pour 1/2 of the cooled custard over top. Repeat layers once more. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour before serving.
