A French dessert in a pretty dish. A rich custard topped with caramelized sugar. A name accented in some ` and a ^ that I can't figure out how to do. But what's lost in translation is made up for in taste. This was my first experience with Creme Brulee and I loved it! I usually opt for something chocolatey and cakey, but this dessert with heavy cream, lots of yolks, and a crispy sheet of caramelized sugar on top satisfied every sweet tooth in my mouth. Plus, you know how I feel about a good-looking outcome. I just knew a dessert with a pretty French name and cute little ramekins pampered in a bath while being cooked was bound to be lovely. And it was. Thank you, Jen, for hosting such a great recipe this week! You can go to Jen's blog HERE for the recipe.
A tip: Use the tips and recommendations in the cook book. I used the torbinado sugar as suggested and I think it turned out fantastico!
Looks grand. Love the raspberries... can't wait for summer! We really loved this one too. Such fun.

ReplyDeleteYour photos are amazing, you need to come and take mine! Your creme brulee looks perfect! It usually wouldn't be my pick either, but it might be from now on.
