  • Place the pan back on the heat – medium heat and stir it mashing the dough against the sides of the pan and gathering up into a ball again to dry out the dough and cook the flour. Do this for three to five minutes.
  • Once it pulls away from the sides and is glossy and shiny and thick enough to stand a wooden spoon up in the dough, it is ready.
  • Transfer to a food mixer and mix on low for a few minutes until the dough is lukewarm to touch.
  • Mix three of the eggs together and gradually add into the dough in four additions. Wait until each addition is fully incorporated before adding the next.
