Custard
A sweet sauce, usually quite thick, made from milk, egg yolks, sugar and cornflour. It also comes in a ready-made powder form that can be mixed with heated milk to make the sauce.

Use: Often used to accompany sweet dishes, the custard may be flavoured, or may be chilled and served semi-solid. Also used as an ingredient in desserts.
