For the fun of it (and I don't know how to put those fun little accents above letters), I looked up crème anglaise and according to Wikipedia it is "French for "English Creme"". I found that pretty amusing. Anyhow, with this recipe we had tons of options, from eating it straight like a soup to crème brûlée. We decided to go with pain perdu or more commonly known as french toast.
This was the most involved recipe so far with a lot of whisking on the stove and in the mixer. After what seemed forever, it was finally done or at least ready for us to make french toast. I tasted it and it was like a soupy vanilla pudding. I'd say fairly good.

Next, we dipped slices of french bread it and fried them. As far as french toast goes, this was pretty good, but I don't think it was quite worth all the work that went into it.
So basically, we thought that this was a great recipe if someone is willing to do it for you.
