   Meanwhile, whisk together the sugar and egg yolks in a bowl until the yolks turn thick and pale.

3. 3

   Temper the yolks by gradually adding the hot half-and-half mixture a cup at a time while whisking vigorously so as not to scramble the eggs.

   Transfer the custard to a heatproof bowl and whisk in the red bean paste.

8. 8

   Set over an ice bath and refrigerate overnight (or at least 12 hours).

9. 9
