[quote=Anonymous]I’ve never heard “pouring custard” before - but reading Hax and a few responses here helped me understand. Pouring is an adjective, not a verb. “Pouring custard” is a type of topping like “hard sauce” or “butterscotch” or “fruit compote”. I’d argue that anyone who routinely serves dishes with a separate topping like crème Anglaise is putting on airs. However, if you were served pouring custard at my home I would also call it Crème Anglaise because that’s either what the package from Whole Foods called it or the name of the NYT recipe I used.
