Ingredients

1/4	pound	baby shrimp	shelled, cooked
1	cup	milk, skim
2	large	eggs	large
4	teaspoons	sherry	dry
2	tablespoons	fish sauce	(soy sauce or other)
2	teaspoons	ginger	minced fresh
1	clove	garlic	pressed or minced
1/4	teaspoon	sesame oil	optional
1/8	teaspoon	white pepper
1	tablespoon	sesame seeds

Directions

In each of 4 custard cup or bowls (3/4 cup size), place 1/4 of the shrimp.

Set cups in a large baking pan at least 2 inches deep.

In a bowl, combine milk, eggs, sherry, 2 teaspoons fish sauce, ginger, garlic, oil, and pepper; beat lightly just to blend.

Pour 1/4 of the mixture into each cup.

Set pan on center rack of a 325 degree Fahrenheit oven.

Pour boiling water onto pan around cups to level of custard.

Bake until custard jiggles only slightly when gently shaken, 25-35 minutes.

Lift cups from pan.

Let stand at least 10 minutes.

If made ahead, let cool, then cover and chill up to a day.

Meanwhile, toast sesame seeds in a 6-8 inch frying pan over medium-low heat, shaking pan often until seed is golden, about 8 minutes; remove from pan and set aside.

Just before serving, garnish custards with sesame seed.

Offer warm or cold, with fish sauce to add to taste.
