Yuri's version...
Use milk instead of water-milk, 250 grams-butter, 100gSalt, dash Granulated sugar, 1 tablespoonFlour, 150 gEggs, 4.5Custard;Egg yolk, 4Granulated sugar, 100gMilk, 500cc (0.5 liters), 2-3 cupsFlour 40gButter, 20 gramsVanilla bean, 1Put milk and vanilla bean together. Boil until bubbles form. Add egg yolk and beat it in another bowl. Add granulated sugar and beat until white, into the egg yolk mixture. Add flour and mix it with the egg yolk mixture. Add ½ of boiled milk to the bowl and mix it. Put the whole egg yolk mixture to the pan to heat until the first big bubble is seen. Keep mixing gently to prevent burning. After the first bubble, take out from fire, add butter and mix it. Lay it on a flat tray. Wrap the tray, sticking it to the custard to prevent air presence as it will cause bad texture. Cool it in the fridge.
