Hint: Browning the butter is probably the most difficult part of this recipe and you can conquer that pretty easy. You know the butter is ready when it has a rich nutty aroma. It’s important not to let it sit in the hot skillet at this point or it will burn. Transfer to a stainless pan to cool, or place the bottom of the skillet in a bath of cool water . Do not pour the hot butter into the egg and sugar mixture, as this will cause the eggs to curdle. Browning the butter is a very important step in the recipe, so don’t skip it thinking you can just stir melted butter into the filling.
