Crème Brulée
Angelic in the centre with burnished copper on top. That little sugary crust on the surface that you rap to gain access to the creamy centre is a tease for a night of great loving.
"Crème brulees are such a tease…"
Ingredients
1 cup heavy cream
3 egg yolks
2 Tbs sugar
1/3 cup sugar for caramelizing
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
3 egg yolks
2 Tbs sugar
1/3 cup sugar for caramelizing
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Serves...
4
You can do this even without a blowtorch
You have to keep a close watch when it’s in the oven to make sure the sugar melts properly and doesn’t burn
Method
Preheat oven to 150°c. Prepare some boiling water.
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine cream and 2 tablespoons sugar. Cook until small bubbles appear around edges of pan about 5 minutes. Set aside.
In a bowl, beat egg yolks and vanilla until smooth and light. Pour hot cream mixture into egg yolks while whisking. Divide among ramekins.
Arrange ramekins in a baking pan and place on middle shelf of preheated oven. Fill pan with boiling water to halfway up sides of ramekins. Cover pan loosely with aluminum foil. Bake about 25 minutes. Chill 2–3 hours.
Sprinkle remaining sugar evenly over top of cooled custards. If you have a crème brulée torch then lightly torch the surface to melt the sugar.
You can also put this in your oven with the broiler setting but keep an eye on it and take it out just as the sugar begins to bubble as it continues to cook.
