Its Tuesday again and Dorie's here! Crème Brulée is up to bat, so let's get started.
Abby thought some calisthenics were in order in preparation for all the working out she's going to have to do to burn off the heavy cream.
This recipe said it yielded 6 servings so I tried to pour equal amounts of the base in 6 ramekins.
Took a hair over 60 minutes before I thought these seemed firm enough to take out of the oven, but here they are.
Chilled over night and then torched! My husband Walt actually brought the little torch you see right there to our relationship. Somewhere around our fourth or fifth date he packed a picnic that we enjoyed next to a little pond (this man knew what he was doing). When we got back to his house he busted out this torch to finish off the crème brulées he had made! Can you even imagine how impressed I was!! Well, I married him :)
The creme was a bit melty, but I could have popped it in the fridge for a few minutes like I saw several of you mention on the TWD crème brulée post; I'll probably try that tonight when we take down two of the four ramekins left. Yum.
I was very pleased with this experience. It was easy and the results are pretty impressive.
