Preheat your oven to 300°F (about 150°C).
Pour two cups of heavy cream into a saucepan and heat it just until it reaches a simmer, then remove it from the heat.
For vanilla flavor, add either a vanilla bean, vanilla extract, or vanilla paste. If using vanilla paste, stir it into the hot cream, then set aside.
In a separate bowl, whisk five large egg yolks.
Add half a cup of sugar and a pinch of salt to the yolks and whisk until smooth.
Gradually pour the hot cream mixture into the egg yolks while continuously whisking to prevent curdling.
Strain the mixture through a sieve into a measuring container to remove any lumps.
Place six 4-ounce (120 ml) ramekins or four larger 6 to 8-ounce (180 to 240 ml) ramekins in a baking dish.
Evenly divide the custard mixture among the ramekins.
Pour hot water into the baking dish until it reaches about halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
