Categories     Dessert

Time 1h35m

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups heavy cream
1 tsp vanilla bean paste
6 tbsp granulated sugar
4 egg yolks
turbinado sugar, or any kind of coarse sugar granules, for the top

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 320°F. Bring a kettle full of water to a boil. Meanwhile, In a medium saucepan, warm the cream just until it's beginning to simmer along the edges of the pan. Don't let the cream boil! Stir in the vanilla bean paste once the cream is warm. Turn the heat off.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk the egg yolks and the granulated sugar together until thick and pale. Stream in 1/4 cup of the hot cream mixture, whisking vigorously as you do. Continue to stream in another 1/4 cup, again whisking the entire time. Pour in the rest of the hot cream and whisk until everything is blended together.
  • Use a ladle to distribute the batter among 5 (6 oz.) ramekins. Place the ramekins in a large casserole dish and place the dish in the oven. Use the kettle spout to pour the hot water into the casserole dish, pouring enough water so that the water almost reaches the top of the ramekins. Be careful not to get any water into the ramekins.
  • Bake the custard for 1 hour just until the centers are slightly wobbly. If needed, after 1 hour, raise the heat to 350°F and bake for another 10 minutes until you've achieved the desired doneness. Remove the ramekins from the casserole dish and let them cool to room temperature. Wrap the ramekins tightly in plastic wrap and freeze.
  • To brulee, sprinkle about 1 teaspoon of the turbinado sugar over each frozen creme brulee. Set the ramekins on a baking sheet under the oven broiler (500°F) for about 1 minute, constantly checking it and rotating the pan so that all of them are evenly bruleed. Let the burnt sugar topping set for a few minutes before serving.

CREME BRULEE WITHOUT A TORCH



Creme Brulee Without a Torch image

Provided by Raiza Costa : The Sweet Side of Life : Food Network

Categories     dessert

Time 3h50m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 vanilla bean
2 cups (480 milliliters) heavy cream
6 large egg yolks
1/2 cup (90 grams) plus 2 to 3 tablespoons sugar
1/8 cup (30 grams) mascarpone, optional

Steps:

  • Using a small, sharp knife, split the vanilla bean in half lengthwise and scrape the seeds into a saucepan along with the heavy cream; add the scraped bean. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then immediately remove the pan from the heat and allow the mixture to cool for 10 minutes.
  • Combine the egg yolks and 1/2 cup sugar in a bowl, whisking until the mixture is very pale yellow. Whisking constantly, pour 1 ladleful of the warm heavy cream into the egg mixture to temper, then slowly pour the mixture back into the pan, whisking constantly.
  • Remove the vanilla bean and stir in the mascarpone. Chill the mixture, covered, for 1 hour or up to overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Divide the batter into four 5-inch or six 4-inch ramekins. Place the ramekins in a larger roasting pan and fill the pan with hot water, coming halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake until set like gelatin and a tester inserted in the centers comes out clean, 30 to 45 minutes.
  • Remove the ramekins from the water bath and let cool at room temperature, 30 minutes. Transfer to the fridge until completely chilled, about 1 hour.
  • Sprinkle the remaining 2 to 3 tablespoons sugar on top of the creme brulees (you want a nice, even layer).
  • Choose a metal spoon that you don't love so much and place it over a high flame on the stove. Let the bowl of the spoon get hot enough that it looks red.
  • Remove the spoon from the stove (the handle shouldn't be hot because flatware doesn't conduct heat) and burn the top of the creme brulee with it. Reheat the spoon for each creme brulee, cleaning the spoon after each use.

CRèME BRûLéE



Crème Brûlée image

Julia Child believed that every woman should own a blowtorch. If you've lucky enough to have one, it will come in handy for this easy crème brulee recipe. And, if not, the broiler is a great stand-in for a handy-dandy blowtorch.

Categories     Dessert

Time 7h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 egg yolks
2 cups whipping cream
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
Boiling water
8 teaspoons granulated sugar

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F. In 13x9-inch pan, place 4 (6-oz) ceramic ramekins. In small bowl, slightly beat egg yolks with wire whisk. In large bowl, stir whipping cream, 1/3 cup granulated sugar and the vanilla until well mixed. Add egg yolks; beat with wire whisk until evenly colored and well blended. Pour cream mixture evenly into ramekins.
  • Carefully place pan with ramekins in oven. Pour enough boiling water into pan, being careful not to splash water into ramekins, until water covers two-thirds of the height of the ramekins.
  • Bake 30 to 40 minutes or until top is light golden brown and sides are set (centers will be jiggly).
  • Using tongs or grasping tops of ramekins with pot holder, carefully transfer ramekins to cooling rack. Cool to room temperature, about 2 hours. Cover tightly with plastic wrap; refrigerate until chilled, at least 4 hours but no longer than 48 hours.
  • Uncover ramekins; gently blot any liquid from tops of custards with paper towel. Sprinkle 2 teaspoons granulated sugar over each chilled custard. Holding kitchen torch 3 to 4 inches from custard, caramelize sugar on each custard by heating with torch about 2 minutes, moving flame continuously over sugar in circular motion, until sugar is melted and light golden brown. (To caramelize sugar in the broiler, see Broiler Directions below.) Serve immediately, or refrigerate up to 8 hours before serving.

TRIED & TRUE CREME BRULEE WITH NO SCALDING



Tried & True Creme Brulee With No Scalding image

From CDKitchen. I've made this recipe many times and it's perfect every time. Cook's Notes Below came over from CDKitchen with the recipe: I've tried many recipes. All ended in yuckness. Granted, I'm no master chef. I'm sure those other recipes work fine if you really know what you're doing. But I don't want to have to go to culinary school. I just want a creme brulee. So I'm talking to my mother on the phone tonight, as I'm about to embark on another creme brulee experiment, and she mentions, "Oh, well, your Aunt Carol makes a great creme brulee; it's always good." So I called up Aunt Carol, got the recipe, gave it a shot, and what do you know? Perfect. So unless you're a master chef, return that double-boiler, forget about scalding the cream, don't fret about scrambling your eggs. Just follow this easy recipe for a creamy, great-tasting creme brulee

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 ramekins, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups heavy cream
5 egg yolks
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup superfine sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 275 degrees F.
  • Whisk the cream, egg yolks, sugar, and vanilla extract together in a bowl. Mix it all up until it gets nice and creamy.
  • Pour this mixture into 7 ounce sized ramekins (those little ceramic dishes). I suppose you could pour it all into one smallish casserole dish too.
  • Place the ramekins in a baking pan. Fill the baking pan with hot water, about halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
  • Place the pan with the ramekins in the oven for 45 minutes to an hour or so.
  • After 45 minutes or so check them every ten minutes. You'll know they're done when you can stick a knife in one and it comes out clean. Remove the ramekins from the baking pan, set them on the counter, and let them cool for 15 minutes or so.
  • Then put them in the refrigerator and let them chill overnight.
  • Sprinkle a thin layer of the superfine sugar on the top of each. Make sure it's a THIN layer, but also make sure it completely covers the custard.
  • Now torch it! Or, if you don't have a torch, you can supposedly put them under the broiler for a minute or so. I haven't tried this.
  • Anyway, that's it. They came out just right the first time. Easy. And they tasted GREAT. The consistency was perfect. Enjoy!

This dessert cocktail is the best of both worlds-rich white chocolate liqueur and Irish cream are blended with hazelnut liqueur and vanilla vodka for a dreamy drink.

Tips:

  • Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan to make the custard base. This will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the custard from scorching.
  • Temper the egg yolks by slowly whisking in some of the hot milk or cream. This will help to prevent the eggs from curdling.
  • Strain the custard base through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any lumps.
  • Cover the custard base tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight. This will allow the flavors to develop and the custard to thicken.
  • Preheat the oven to the highest temperature it can reach, usually around 500°F (260°C). This will help to create a crispy brulee topping.
  • Use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar on top of the custard. If you don't have a kitchen torch, you can use a broiler. Just be careful not to burn the sugar.
  • Let the creme brulee cool for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the topping to harden and the custard to set.

Conclusion:

Crème brûlée is a delicious and elegant dessert that can be made at home with just a few simple ingredients. By following these tips, you can make a perfect crème brûlée every time. So next time you're looking for a special dessert to impress your friends or family, give crème brûlée a try!
