Ka hiyain elders mo kumuha ito kabuhungan!!!!!

Your cooking instructions are totally wrong I am a traditionalist Filipino I would know. :^(

The way to make Leche Flan and also Spanish Flan is by open-air steaming On either an open cooking fire or Stove top/Range.

No exceptions, the reason being is because most people around the world (especially Filipinos) classically did not have ovens (Read your History or talk to your elders).

So to label your recipe as Philipine's Flan you must have the open-air steaming on either an open cooking fire or stove top/range instructions only. No exceptions!

Otherwise you must label your recipe as Oven steamed Leche Flan.

ka hiyain elders mo kumuha ito kabuhungan!!!!!

SALIT SALING could be traditionalist as she can be, TO HELL WE CARE!! There are obviously many ways to make leche flan and baking is one of them. SO IT IS NOT TOTALLY WRONG. You are just one of those people who have this crab mentality. YOU DON'T HAVE TO READ YOUR HISTORY to cook leche flan. WE ARE in the 21st century and you can eat your own. Exceptions rule - DUH.

We are filipinos who are always evolving around the technologies of today. We are known for our efficiency. To be able to cook wisely and yet get the same result or better, why not. You want to cook Leche Flan the hard way...go for it...But don't insult anyone's intelligence just because they used the "Filipino" for their view of authenticity. Razielle, I tried your cooking technique and it was great. In my opinion, it has better texture than cooking it in an open-air steaming. I know this because, I have been steaming my flan all this years. I am glad I tried your way. I hate to admit it but I like the way it turned out. Though, I have my own secret recipe that has been passed down for generations ( I care not to disclose ), I would only change the way it will be cooked now. So thanks for the idea...AKO AY PILIPINO, PILIPINONG TUTUO!

I tried this technique and it was great! Thanks.

to razielle go go girl.. the one who commented you WOW sobra kang mang lait tsong... akala mo ang galing mo.. ive tried your recipe and it was really great. tnx.

OVERRRR. ka naman mamintas sa kalahi natin. Kahit anong style pa yan ng cooking basta Pilipino gumawa ay SUPER SARAPPP yan. try mo kaya style nya and you will know the difference. so sooo very perfectionist. magbago ka na.

Although I am an American married to a filipino, I learned to make this dessert in the philippines. I have always steamed it. I am going to try baking it. I will let you know!!!

This is helpful and a a lot of people in the Philippines now have ovens... I don't have llanera and can't find them in any stores here in the U.S. It just tastes the same so you mean rellenong inihaw na bangus is not Philippines' rellenong bangus if u broil it or grill it using an oven? Peace! The outcome is just the same.... Whether you bake it or steam it.

grabe naman yan.. ciempre naman anong petsa na ba ngayon...
SALIT SABING PILIPINO,,, OPINYON MO YUN,, ALAM MO NA PALA ANG PAGGWA NG LECHE FLAN BAKIT TUMITINGIN KA PA SA GAWA NG IBA GAYUNG PINTAS LANG ANG AABUTIN SA YO NG TAO,, GUMAWA KA NG SARILI MO... WAG YUNG NAMIMINTAS KA NG TRABAHO NG IBA...WAG GANUN... PANGIT YUN!

So typical filipino crab mentality... Recipes are as varied as nationalities and ethnicities... Lets just cook the way we know how without criticizing the other-you might want to try the other way of cooking things and learn something. Humility and graciousness go a long way, "salit saling"!!! ...Go razielle

Salit Sabing...Are you serious?! It's a shame that you still have that kind of mentality. Everyone has their own way of making things and for you to be that judgemental is not becoming. The leche flan turned out great and it's exactly how my uncle makes it. Who used to be a Navy Chef. Steam oven or open air. Still tastes great!

Oh! my god sobra naman yan manlait ano? basta ganon ang labas ok! na yon sana magbago na kayo pasko na...go girl..Razielle Dionisio

im a chef by profession, though i'm not into desserts but i had my professional training before that calls for baking the custard or the leche flan per se.. and indeed it was exceptionally better compared to steaming or the use of bain marie.. hindi sya nakakaumay... well, long live razielle... wish you all the best this new year..

Hi thank you sa technique.its my first time to cook leche flan, and i wanna impress my husband. paborito kasi niya. i have a question though, pwede po bang hindi na ilagay sa larger pan na may tubig? kelangan bang nasa ibaba yun larger pan na may tubig? kasi may nabasa naman ako na ganun. or kelangnan tlga ilagay yung llanera sa luob ng larger pan? salamat po ng marami!:D
PS: obviously wala akong steamer. so open air steamer is so old school! korek ka nga naman Marilou, anong petsa na nga namn di ba? pa-sikat lang un si Sali't-saling...
salamat razielle sa recipe!

To salit-saling...it's a shame that you still have that kind of mentality, you should be proud of your "kababayan", razielle, at least she is smart to discover new techniques to make everybody's life easier. Have a new year and a new life sweetheart. For razielle... go girl God bless you.
