CRÉME brulée The Traditional WAY?

....NOOOO.....Heating milk...beating egg yolks with sucre until your arms are dropping to your knees...NOOOO....

My husband bought this great machine called NIJA and why not using it....so I decided to experiment and here it goes with this blender or any kind of blender...




Lets's start.....

Here are the ingredients: 4 portion

1 vanilla bean or use vanilla extract (use your lid measure 1 lid cup)

Preheat the oven to 300 F (148 C)

2/3 cup sugar (some we will use for later)

1 cup milk

1 cup heavy cream or if you have creme fraiche you can use this as well

***

Part 1:

Split vanilla bean and scrape out the seeds or add vanilla extract into the blender and your yolks with 1/2 cup sugar and beat (use the key "blend")

Then beat in the cream and milk, if you like you can add orange liqueur

***



Part 2:

Prepare you bain-marie (use a deep tray and fold in a towel)

Before you pour in the custard make sure the ramekins fit in your tray....

Cook water...you need this to add the hot water in your bain-marie...

PAY ATTENTION > That no WATER gets in your custard<

***

Part 3:

Then pour into heatproof ramekins. Bake for 30 mins.



Allow to cool completely ( at least 30 min. )



***

Part 4:

Sprinkle your custard with the remaining sugar and put them either under your broiler or you have a small torch



Voila...DONE!...


After you sprinkle your custard with sugar...the BEST part is yet to come...

THE usage of the TORCH
