To begin with this particular recipe, we must prepare a few ingredients. You can cook crème brulee using 6 ingredients and 4 steps. Here is how you can achieve that.
The ingredients needed to make Crème Brulee:

Crème brûlée (/ ˌkrɛm bruːˈleɪ /; French pronunciation: [kʁɛm bʁy.le]), also known as burned cream, burnt cream or Trinity cream, and similar to crema catalana, is a dessert consisting of a rich custard base topped with a texturally contrasting layer of hardened caramelized sugar. Creme brulee is a thick custard cream with a velvety texture which is baked in the oven. It is usually served in individual ramekins but it can also be prepared in a larger one. For the best texture, you will have to place the ramekins inside a baking pan which you will fill halfway through with boiling water (water bath).
Steps to make Crème Brulee:
- Score vanilla pods lengthways and remove seeds. Add milk, cream, vanilla seeds and pods to a pan and slowly bring to the boil.
- In a bowl, beat the yolks and sugar until light and fluffy. When the milk and cream are just about to boil, remove the vanilla pods and add little by little to the egg mixture, whisking continuously. Remove any froth or bubbles that surface.
- Add your fruit (optional) to the bottom of the dishes. Pour the creamy mixture over the fruit. (Ramekins will do but small clay cassoulet are more suited to this pudding as it should really be quite shallow). Bake in a shallow baking tray half filled with water for 25 minutes. (140 degrees centigrade). The custards should be set but wobbly in the middle. Let the custards cool, then chill in the refrigerator.
- Before serving, sprinkle the top of the custards with 2 - 3 teaspoons of sugar and gently shake the ramekin to spread it evenly. Use a mini blowtorch or grill to caramelise the sugar until it turns a dark amber colour. Not too dark though as it will taste bitter. DO NOT test whether it is hot with your finger! Remember to leave a moment before serving. (You don’t want any burnt tongues either). Sprinkle with a dusting of icing sugar and fruit of your choice.
It is usually served in individual ramekins but it can also be prepared in a larger one. For the best texture, you will have to place the ramekins inside a baking pan which you will fill halfway through with boiling water (water bath). Next, pour the mixture into a ramekin. But first—and this is as complicated as the recipe gets—you put the ramekin into a pan filled with water. Five simple ingredients - cream, vanilla, salt, eggs and sugar - make for an exquisitely rich and elegant dessert.
