Crème Caramel
Crème caramel (), flan, caramel pudding, condensed milk pudding, or caramel custard is a custard dessert with a layer of clear caramel sauce. History Custard has a long documented history, but crème caramel or flan in its modern form, with soft caramel on top, and prepared and cooked using a bain-marie, is first documented in by Jean-Baptiste Reboul, Jean Baptiste Reboul published in 1897. In the late 20th century, crème caramel was common in European restaurants. The food historian Alan Davidson (food writer), Alan Davidson speculates that this may have been because the dish could be prepared in bulk, in advance. Etymology In this context, in French means 'custard'. The names (French) and (Spanish) allude to the custard being turned over to be served.

Flan (pie)
A flan, in British cuisine, is an egg-based dish with an open, rimmed pastry or sponge base containing a sweet or savoury filling. Examples are bacon and egg flan and custard tart. History Flan is recorded in Ancient Roman cuisine. It was often a savory dish, as in " eel flan"; sweet flans were also enjoyed. In the Middle Ages, both sweet and savory flans ( almonds, cinnamon and sugar; cheese, curd, spinach, fish) were popular in Spain and across Europe, especially during Lent, when meat was forbidden. Etymology The English word "flan", and the earlier forms "flaune" and "flawn", come from the Old French ''flaon'' (modern French ''flan''), in turn from the early Medieval Latin ''fladō'' (accusative ''fladōnem''), of Germanic languages, Germanic origin, from an Indo-European languages, Indo-European root meaning "flat" or "broad".Oxford English Dictionary, 2nd Edition (1989); Petit Robert ''Le Petit Robert de la Langue Française'' (), known as just ''Petit Robert' ...

Planchet
A planchet is a round metal disk that is ready to be struck as a coin. An older word for planchet is flan. They are also referred to as blanks. History The preparation of the flan or planchet has varied over the years. In ancient times, the flan was heated before striking because the metal that the coin dies were made of was not as hard as dies today, and the dies would have worn faster and broken sooner had the flan not been heated to a high temperature to soften it. An unusual method was used to mint the one-sided, bowl-shaped ''pfennigs'' of the Holy Roman Empire. The planchet used for these so-called '' Schüsselpfennigs'' was larger than the coin die itself. The coins were made by striking with only one upper die on the larger planchet. As a result, the perimeter of the planchet was pressed upwards in the shape of a bowl or plate. Until the 18th century they were minted mainly in the Harz Mountains. The curved shape of the pfennig was very useful for handling small chan ...
