| CREME BRULEE
6 Servings
A rich French custard-famous for its hard, cara-
melized sugar glaze.
Heat in a double boiler until hot-
2 cups whipping cream
Pour it slowly over:
4 well-beaten eggs
Beat constantly while pouring. Return the mixture
to the double boiler. Stir in:
(2 tablespoons sugar)
Heat. stirring constantly, until the eggs thicken
and the custard coats a spoon heavily. Place the
mixture in a greased baking dish or custard cups.
Some people insist this custard should be made
and chilled the day before it is caramelized. In
any case, chill it well. Cover the custard with:
1/4- to 1/3-inch layer of sieved light-brown sugar
or maple sugar
Be sure to cover the custard with the sugar to the
very edges of the dish. To avoid a mess, place a
piece of paper under the dish. Place the custard
cups or dish in a shallow pan. If the custard has
been chilled for 12 hours, put it in a cold oven.
turn the heat to 250" and heat until the sugar is
caramelized. If the custard has been chilled a
shorter time, put the dish in a shallow pan. Sur-
round it with ice. Place it under a hot broiler just
long enough to let the sugar form a crust. Keep
the oven door open, and regularly rotate the dish
to even the heating. While the sugar caramelizes,
watch carefully, because it may scorch. Serve at
once. A delicate garnish is:
A compote of greengage plums and apricots

Creme Brulee
from the Bon Appetit
Favorite Restaurant Recipes Book:
Creme Brulee
makes 6-8 servings
1 quart whipping cream
1/4 cup sugar
1 tbsp vanilla
pinch salt
8 egg yolks
dark brown sugar
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine first 4 ingredients
in a heavy saucepan and warm slowly over low heat
until the cream is scalded (180-185 degrees), stirring
occasionally. Meanwhile, beat yolks in stainless steel bowl
until lemon colored. Very slowly pour hot cream
into yolks; do not beat or mixture will foam.
Pour into a 6-8 cup baking dish or individual 6 oz ramekins.
Place in larger baking pan. Fill pan with hot water so
water comes halfway up the custard container(s). Bake until
knife inserted 1 inch from edge of custard comes
out clean (center will be soft) about 25-30 min.
Remove custard from water bath and allow to cool.
Cover and refrigerate overnight.
Preheat broiler. Sift brown sugar to depth of 1/4
inch evenly over top of custard. Place custard
under broiler 6-8 inches from heat. Watch care-
fully as sugar will melt in 1-2 minutes. Do not let it
burn. When sugar is melted, return immediately to
refrigerator to stop the cooking. Serve very
cold. Crust will hold up 4-6 hours.
Side note: Many chefs use a blowtorch instead
of the broiler to do this last step just before
serving......no kidding!

Using granulated brown sugar for the topping is a trick that
Pierre Franey uses. It guaranteed an even crisp topping.

Creme Brulee - CLB
Recipe By : Star Desserts / Pierre Franey
Serving Size : 10 Preparation Time :6:00

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
6 egg yolks
2 eggs
3/4 cup sugar
pinch salt
1 1/2 cups milk
2 3/4 cups heavy cream
2 vanilla beans
6 tablespoons granulated brown sugar
Preheat oven to 300'.
Put egg yolks, eggs, sugar (not brown), and salt in stainless steel bowl. Whisk mixture together.
Pour milk and crean into heavy-bottomed saucepan. Slit vanilla beans, add to mixture. Scald milk, then allow beans to steep for 15 minutes or so. Remove beans and scrape vanilla seeds into mixture, discarding husks. Slowly whisk into egg mixture. Cool custard base and strain through a medium-holed strainer.
Pour custard base into 8 ramekins. Skim off any air bubbles.
Put ramekins in ovenproof pan and put it into oven. Fill pan one-third full of hot water. Cover pan with aluminum foil and bake custards for about 50 minutes. When the custards are gently shaken, they will be set around the edges yet have an area in the middle, about the size of a quarter, that will not be completely firm. Refrigerate the custards several hours to overnight.
To serve: Preheat broiler until it is very hot.
Sprinkle 2 teaspoons of granulated brown sugar over each custard. Place custards about 3" from the broiler. Broil until sugar is caramelized. Allow sugar to harden for a couple of minutes and then serve.

4092.9 | does not store well | MUZICK::RCOLLIER | | Fri May 31 1996 11:49 | 5 |
| I tried the recipe in (.2) and it worked just great.
However, it does not store well, the burnt sugar coating will collapse
in a day or two in the fridge. Oh well, guess you'll have to eat
it right away... :)

After the custard is cooked, but before the sugar is sprinkled on
top, it can be refrigerated for a couple of days. I add the sugar
and brown the tops immediately before serving, I like the contrast of
the cold custard with the hot, crispy top.

4092.13 | Lower-Fat Creme Brulee | NETCAD::DREYER | I need a vacation!! | Tue May 27 1997 16:51 | 59 |

Low(er)-Fat Creme Brulee
1 1/2 cups Egg Beaters or other fat-free egg product
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1 3/4 cups 2% Milk (don't use skim, it makes it too weird)
1 1/2 tablespoons instant coffee powder (or flavored
international coffee--do you remember that waiter JEAN LUC?)
2 tablespoons flavored liquor: Triple Sec, Kahlua etc. (optional)
3/4 package of unflavored gelatine
Start the kettle boiling on the stove and preheat the oven to 300
degrees F. In a medium metal bowl, combine Egg Beaters and sugar, whisk
until well blended, add instant coffee and flavorings, then whisk again
strenuously until slightly thickened and smooth. Combine a little of
the milk and all the in a small bowl and whisk in an animated
fashion. Heat the remainder of the milk in a heavy saucepan over
medium-high heat whisking gently. Once it begins to foam, mix in
mixture. Whisk it like you mean it. Once the gelatine is dissolved,
SLOWLY pour it into the egg mixture while (you guessed it) whisking
like you've never whisked before- this keeps it from scrambling and
getting grainy. Pour the final mixture into ramekins (stop whisking
first) and place them in a baking dish. Fill the dish with boiling
water until it reaches half-way up the sides of the ramekins and bake
in the oven for about 35-45 minutes. Then chill in the refrigerator
for several hours (3-4+). Garnish with sugar then apply blowtorch or
try using dark chocolate shavings, raspberries, sprigs of fresh mint etc.
