Classic Creme Brulee


Nothing better than a good, classic Creme Brulee! Creme Brulee, which literally means "burnt cream" in French, is a truly decadent and indulgent dessert. It is made with only egg yolks, heavy cream and white sugar and then topped off with more white sugar and burnt to a golden hard candy like crust.

Ingredients:

  • 4 cups heavy cream
  • 8 egg yolks
  • 1/2 cup sugar + extra for sprinkling (1 Sugar in the Raw packet per ramekin is the best way)
  • 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract (use vanilla bean pods if have...way better flavor)

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 300° F. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine cream and 1/2 cup sugar. Cook while stirring until cream just begins to bubble (about 4-5 minutes).

In a bowl, beat egg yolks and vanilla until well blended. Yolks will become a light yellow. Gradually pour hot cream into yolks, stirring constantly. If the mixture looks a bit grainy, strain mixture through a sieve set over a bowl.

Pour the custard into 8 6-oz ramekins (custard cups). Place ramekins in a baking dish and add hot water to fill pan halfway up the side of the ramekins.

Bake until set, about 40-45 minutes, until custard is mostly firm but the centers of the custards shake gently when tapped. Remove from the oven and allow the ramekins to cool slightly.

Remove the ramekins from the pan and refrigerate overnight. Just before serving, sprinkle the custards with 2 teaspoons sugar and caramelize the topping by using a hand-held propane or butane torch to caramelize the sugar.

Serve along with some fresh berries for added flavor.

TIP: Keep the water bath close to the oven to avoid walking across the kitchen and spilling water onto your floor.

Lunch Special For Out Literary Club Members


For lunch yesterday I was asked to put together a lunch special for a few of our lady members and their guests. They wanted something "off" menu, so I looked around the kitchen and came up with this great dish. It is Grilled Marinated Chicken Breast over Red Wine Risotto, Grilled Asparagus, and a Balsamic Vinegar Reduction. I was thrilled at how the outcome was of this dish and after I sent it out, all the bowls came back licked clean! So, I think I can assume that they really enjoyed it. Coming up in January, I am re-writing the menu and may even include this on it...we will see. Hopefully I will have the new menu up and ready within the next few weeks.

If you would like the recipe for the dish, just email me and I will get it to ya.
