To beaten eggs add salt, sugar and remaining 2 cups of milk. Add warm mixture to this and stir in vanilla. Pour into custard cups or baking dish. Place cups or dish in pan with 1 inch of hot water. Bake at 350 degrees F for 45 minutes for cups, or 1 hour for baking dish. Do not overcook! Cool, then chill in refrigerator. Serve in dishes, or loosen edges and invert on plate.
Hints: Stir constantly when caramelizing sugar, as it scorches easily. In the first caramelizing, 2-3 Tbsp. of boiling water may be added, in order to keep it more liquid when custard is chilled. Lots of trouble, but worth it!
