The hot water produces steam, providing a very moist baking environment. The water also heats up more slowly and evenly than the air in the oven, and insures consistent, even cooking of the custard.

What is the leakage of a liquid from a gel such as baked custard?

The leakage of a liquid from a gel, such as baked custard, is known as "syneresis." This occurs when the gel structure collapses and releases trapped liquid, often due to changes in temperature, pH, or time. In baked custard, syneresis can happen if it is overcooked or improperly cooled, leading to a watery layer forming on the surface. This phenomenon affects the texture and overall quality of the custard.
