Time 8h

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 cups heavy cream
1 cup whole milk
1 cup dark brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 ounces milk chocolate, chopped
2 tablespoons pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
9 large egg yolks
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 1/2 cups freshly popped corn
1/4 cup honey-roasted peanuts

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees. In a medium saucepan, combine the cream, milk, brown sugar and salt. Cook over moderate heat, stirring until the sugar melts and small bubbles appear around the rim. Remove from the heat and whisk in the chocolate until melted. Add the 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoons of vanilla. In a medium bowl, whisk the egg yolks. Gradually whisk in the hot cream mixture, then strain the custard through a fine sieve into a bowl.
  • Set eight 1/2-cup ramekins in a roasting pan. Pour the custard into the ramekins and add enough hot water to the pan to reach halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Cover with foil and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the creme brulees are set but still slightly jiggly in the center. Uncover and let cool in the pan. Then refrigerate until very cold and firm, at least 5 hours.
  • Set the ramekins in the freezer for 20 minutes, until icy cold. Preheat the broiler and position a rack 6 inches from the heat source. Place 4 of the ramekins in a baking pan and fill it with ice. Sprinkle about 2 teaspoons of granulated sugar evenly over each of the creme brulees and broil for about 1 minute, until the tops are carmalized. Remove the creme brulees from the ice water and refrigerate just until chilled, about 15 minutes. Repeat with remaining creme brulees. Alternatively, caramelize the sugar with a propane or bruleee torch. Top the creme brulees with the caramel corn and serve.
  • Carmel Corn:.
  • Active: 15 minutes; Total: 45 minutes.
  • Makes 3 1/2 cups.
  • Line a large baking sheet pan with lightly buttered parchment paper or foil. In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, corn syrup and water and bring to a boil. Wash down the sides of the saucepan with a wet pastry brush. Cook the syrup over moderate heat without stirring, until a medium amber caramel color forms, about 7 minutes. Remove from the heat and carefully stir in the butter and salt until melted. Add the popcorn and peanuts and carefully stir to coat all the pieces. Pour the caramel corn onto the buttered sheet pan and spread into an even layer. Drizzle any remaining caramel on top. Let cool for 30 minutes, then break the caramel corn into pieces.

Categories     dessert

Time 3h25m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 ears sweet corn
1 tablespoon butter
3 cups heavy cream
1 cup whole milk
8 egg yolks
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup coarse sugar or raw sugar

Steps:

  • Remove the husk from the ears of corn and cut the kernels off. In a nonstick saute pan melt the butter and saute the corn kernels until they cook and have a few brown specks on them.
  • In a medium saucepan, heat the cream, milk, and half the Sauteed corn kernels over medium heat, stirring occasionally, just until it comes to a boil. Immediately turn off the heat and set aside to infuse at least 15 minutes. Puree the mixture with a hand blender until smooth.
  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the granulated sugar. Whisking constantly, gradually pour in the hot cream mixture. Strain the mixture into a pitcher. Sprinkle the remaining corn kernels into 8 (6 to 8 ounce) ovenproof ramekins. Pour the cream/corn mixture into the bowls and arrange in a hot water bath. Bake at 300 degrees F, in the center of the oven until almost set but still a bit soft in the center, 30 to 40 minutes. The custard should "shimmy" a bit when you shake the pan; it will firm up more as it cools. Remove from the water bath and let cool 15 minutes. Tightly cover each bowl with plastic wrap, making sure the plastic does not touch the surface of the custard. Refrigerate at least 2 hours. (Or refrigerate until ready to serve, up to 24 hours.)
  • Preheat a broiler to very hot (or fire up your kitchen torch). Uncover the chilled custards. Pour as much sugar as will fit onto the top of one of the custards. Pour off the excess sugar onto the next custard. Repeat until all the custards are coated. Discard any remaining sugar. Place the bowls on a baking sheet or in a roasting pan and broil until the sugar is melted and well browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Or brown them with a blowtorch. Let cool 1 minute before serving.

CORN AND COCONUT CREME BRULEE



Corn and Coconut Creme Brulee image

This dessert uses two of corn's more unusual pairings--coconut and vanilla--to make one unforgettable dessert. If you love this combination of flavors as much as we do, try using these ingredients in other dishes, such as a cake or cookies.

Provided by James Briscione

Categories     dessert

Time 3h10m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 ears fresh corn, husked, silk removed
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Kosher salt
One 13.5-ounce can unsweetened coconut milk
1 cup water
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup light brown sugar
2 cups milk
3 large eggs
3 large egg yolks
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Cut the kernels from the ears of corn. Cut each corncob into 3 pieces.
  • Melt the butter in a large saucepot over medium heat. Stir in the corn kernels and 1 teaspoon salt. Saute until just tender, about 5 minutes, being careful not to let the corn or butter brown. Add the corncobs, coconut milk, and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover the pot and cook at a simmer for 15 minutes.
  • While the mixture simmers, combine the sugars in a blender or food processor, blend well, and set aside.
  • Remove and discard the corncobs. Transfer the mixture to a blender and blend on high speed until smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl, pressing with a silicone spatula to obtain all the pulp; discard any remaining solids. Whisk in 1/2 cup of the sugar mixture, the milk, eggs, egg yolks, and vanilla until thoroughly mixed. Adjust the seasoning to taste with salt, if needed.
  • Divide the mixture among six 8-ounce brulee dishes or flameproof ramekins, filling them to just below the rim. Place the dishes in a roasting pan or large baking dish. Pour water into the roasting pan to come about halfway up the sides of the dishes. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and carefully transfer it to the center rack of the oven. Bake until just set, about 35 minutes.
  • Remove the dishes from the pan. Refrigerate until well chilled.
  • Spread a thin layer of the remaining sugar mixture on top of the baked custards (you may not need it all). Caramelize with a torch. Or place the custards on a baking sheet and caramelize under a preheated broiler. Serve immediately.

BUTTERSCOTCH CREME BRULEE



Butterscotch Creme Brulee image

I like the subtle character that the butterscotch brings to the custard. Most Creme Brulee recipes use all heavy cream; this is somewhat lighter because of the use of half-and-half, but there's no mistaking that this is a rich, decadent dessert. This recipe does require a brulee torch to do properly, though I understand that it can be done by placing under your oven's broiler and carefully watching. You will need 4 ramekins, something that can withstand the cooking temperatures of an oven.

Categories     Dessert

Time 3h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

10 ounces heavy cream
10 ounces half-and-half
1 vanilla bean, split and scraped
4 egg yolks
2/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon liqueur, butterscotch
4 tablespoons sugar, for brulee coating

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Split vanilla bean down the middle and scrape out the insides. Heat heavy cream, half-and-half, and vanilla bean (all of it, including the husk) on medium-high until it just comes to a boil. Remove from heat, cover, and allow to rest for 15 minutes.
  • Whisk egg yolks and 2/3 cup of sugar together with butterscotch liqueur. Gradually stream some of the hot cream and vanilla mixture into the bowl while constantly stirring. Keep stirring to keep egg from scrambling. Continue until both mixtures are fully incorporated.
  • Pour mixture through a fine mesh strainer and equally divide between 4 ramekins. Place the ramekins in a deep baking pan. Add enough water to come to halfway up the side of the ramekins.
  • Cook in oven for 45 minutes, until the surface is set but still trembling when shaken.
  • Allow to cool slightly, then move to refrigerator to cool for at least 2 hours and up to 3 days.
  • When ready to finish, remove from refrigerator and place at room temperature for at least 30 minutes. Distribute 1 tablespoon of sugar on the surface of each ramekin. Gently rotate and tap the sides of each ramekin if necessary.
  • Using a brulee torch set to the highest setting, gradually melt the sugar on the surface of each ramekin. The sugar will bead up and turn to liquid form; move the torch to another area if the sugar starts to blacken. Some blackening is desirable. After going over the surface, some unmelted sugar will remain. Go back over these areas with the torch until they're melted, but stop if it turns black.
  • Allow to sit for a few minutes before serving.
