VANILLA CRèME BRûLéE



Vanilla Crème Brûlée image

Five simple ingredients - cream, vanilla, salt, eggs and sugar - make for an exquisitely rich and elegant dessert. Most crème brûlée recipes require the use of a small propane torch to achieve the crackly sugar top, but this version offers a simpler (and safer) solution: your oven's broiler. One thing to note: Be sure to let the custard set for several hours in the refrigerator before brûléeing the top, otherwise you'll end up with soupy custard.

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups heavy or light cream, or half-and-half
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise, or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon salt
5 egg yolks
1/2 cup sugar, more for topping

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 325 degrees. In a saucepan, combine cream, vanilla bean and salt and cook over low heat just until hot. Let sit for a few minutes, then discard vanilla bean. (If using vanilla extract, add it now.)
  • In a bowl, beat yolks and sugar together until light. Stir about a quarter of the cream into this mixture, then pour sugar-egg mixture into cream and stir. Pour into four 6-ounce ramekins and place ramekins in a baking dish; fill dish with boiling water halfway up the sides of the dishes. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, or until centers are barely set. Cool completely. Refrigerate for several hours and up to a couple of days.
  • When ready to serve, top each custard with about a teaspoon of sugar in a thin layer. Place ramekins in a broiler 2 to 3 inches from heat source. Turn on broiler. Cook until sugar melts and browns or even blackens a bit, about 5 minutes. Serve within two hours.

BERRY COULIS



Berry Coulis image

This is a flexible recipe for a classic berry coulis: use just one type of berry or a combination. Passing the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer produces a smooth, glossy sauce, but you can skip the step if you prefer something more rustic. The coulis will keep in the refrigerator for 4 to 5 days and also freezes well. Serve over ice cream, cheesecake, pound cake or other plain cakes.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings (about 1 cup)

Number Of Ingredients 4

12 ounces fresh raspberries, blackberries, blueberries or strawberries, or a mix (if using strawberries, hull and quarter them)
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Pinch kosher salt

Steps:

  • Combine the berries, sugar, lemon juice, salt and 1 tablespoon water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, until the berries begin to give off their juice, 1 to 2 minutes. Adjust the heat so the sauce is simmering rapidly and cook until the berries have broken down, 4 to 5 minutes. Let cool slightly.
  • Transfer to a blender and blend until smooth. Pour the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer, pressing on the solids to extract as much of the sauce as possible. Serve the sauce cold or at room temperature.

2 cups mixed berries (such as raspberries, blueberries, and sliced strawberries)

Provided by caligrrl

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     French

Time 6h50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 cups heavy cream
¼ cup white sugar
1 pinch salt
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
5 egg yolks
4 tablespoons white sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
  • Place about 2 tablespoons of the chocolate chips into each of four 6 ounce ramekins. Place them in the microwave, and heat on full power for 30 second intervals. Stir, and continue heating until chocolate has melted. Spread to cover the sides and bottom of each ramekin.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
  • Meanwhile, in a saucepan, whisk together the cream, 1/4 cup sugar, and salt. Set over medium heat, and warm until steam rises from the surface. Then in a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and vanilla. When the cream is hot, ladle a little bit into the egg yolks while whisking quickly. Ladle in a bit more to bring the yolks up to a high temperature without scrambling them. Whisk the yolk mixture into the rest of the cream. Ladle into the chocolate lined ramekins.
  • Place a towel in the bottom of a baking dish, and place the filled ramekins on top of the towel. Place in the oven, and pour boiling water carefully into the baking dish until it comes half way up the sides of the ramekins. Cover the dish loosely with aluminum foil.
  • Bake for 35 to 40 minutes in the preheated oven, just until the custard is set. Remove ramekins from the dish, and refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours.
  • Before serving, sprinkle 1 tablespoon of sugar over the top of each creme brulee. Use a kitchen torch or your oven's broiler to caramelize the sugar. It may take 2 to 3 minutes in the broiler. Serve immediately.

VANILLA CRèME BRûLéE



Vanilla crème brûlée image

Who better to teach us how to create this classic French dessert than the MasterChef himself, Michel Roux Jr?

Provided by Michel Roux Jr

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 10

250ml double cream
75ml full-fat milk
1 vanilla pod , scraped
4 egg yolks
3 tbsp caster sugar , plus 3-4 tbsp for the topping
1 tsp vanilla extract
½ sheet of puff pastry
½ egg , beaten
finely chopped almonds
icing sugar

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 140C/120C fan/gas 1. Put the cream, milk and vanilla pod into a pan and heat to boiling point. Cover and leave to infuse for 10 mins. Whisk the egg yolks and 3 tbsp of sugar together until pale and thick. Add the vanilla extract and pour the boiling cream onto the mixture. Stir well, then pour into two ramekins. Place the ramekins in a bain marie and cook in the oven for about 20 mins or until just set. Leave to cool.
  • Heat the grill. Sprinkle the cold brûlée with a thin, even layer of sugar, and caramelise under the very hot grill (or use a blowtorch). Repeat several times until you have a golden crackling topping. Leave to cool and serve within 2 hrs with warm Almond puff pastry sticks (see below).

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
  • Make sure the cream is cold before whipping it; this will help it hold its shape.
  • Be careful not to overcook the custard; it should be thick and creamy, but not curdled.
  • Let the crème brûlée cool completely before torching the sugar; this will prevent the sugar from melting too much.
  • If you don't have a kitchen torch, you can caramelize the sugar under a preheated broiler.
  • Serve the crème brûlée immediately after torching the sugar.

Conclusion:

Crème brûlée is a classic French dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized with different flavors. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious crème brûlée that will impress your family and friends.
