Step-by-Step Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). In a medium saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and water over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved. Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the caramel turns a deep amber color.
2
Remove the saucepan from the heat and slowly pour in the sweetened condensed milk. The mixture will bubble up and steam vigorously, so be careful not to splash any of the hot caramel.
3
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, vanilla extract, and kosher salt. Add the caramel mixture to the eggs and whisk until smooth.
4
Pour the mixture into 6-8 ramekins or small cups. Place the ramekins in a large baking dish and add hot water to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
5
Bake the flan for 45-50 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are slightly jiggly. Remove the ramekins from the water bath and let cool to room temperature.
