![]() Broiler: Freeze the crème brûlées for 30 minutes and preheat the broiler. ![]() Refrigerate for at least 4 hours (preferably overnight) and up to 3 days. Remove the ramekins from the hot water bath and let it cool to room temperature.The top should remain pale in colour and not browned. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the crème brûlée is just slightly wobbly in the centre.Fill the roasting pan with the boiling water until the water level reaches halfway up the sides of the ramekins.(The straining and scooping of foam and bubbles are optional steps, but they helped to make a smooth and pretty crème brûlée.).Use a small spoon to scoop out the foam and bubbles on the surface of the custard. Strain the custard into a measuring jug and divide it among the two ramekins.Stir in the remaining cream, taking care to stir gently and not whisk anymore to prevent incorporating too much air into the custard.When the cream has come to a simmer, scoop a ladleful of hot cream and pour it in a slow and steady stream into the egg yolks, whisking it all the time to bring up the temperature of the eggs.Add in the sugar and whisk with a wire whisk until some of the sugar has been incorporated. While the cream is heating, place the egg yolks in a heat-proof bowl.Heat the cream over medium to medium-low heat until the cream comes to a simmer (small bubbles appearing on the side of the pot). Place two ramekins in a deep roasting pan. Preheat the oven to 150 degrees Celsius.(Sorry I was running out of time when I made them, hence no step-by-step photos this time!) Nevertheless, it was a fun experience learning how to make crème brûlées!Ĭrème brûlée lovers, do try this recipe out and let me know whether you like it or not! □ As for me, I like the crunch of the sugar with the soft and silky custard, but I can only eat a very small portion at a time, as I'm not a huge fan of crème brûlées. Taste wise, X didn't like it - I think the texture of the crème brûlée doesn't appeal to him haha. but the centre was already burnt so I had to remove it from the oven. I would strongly suggest freezing the crème brûlée for 20 - 30 minutes before putting it under the broiler so that the custard doesn't melt and end up cooking again (which was what happened to my first batch of crème brûlées.) One downside of using the broiler is the lack of control on how the sugar caramelizes - the sides of my crème brûlée did not caramelize. I decided to make an alcoholic version as I still have some Baileys left - I didn't have a blow torch unfortunately so I used the broiler setting in my oven. It does not store any personal data.I'm quite certain I have a love-hate relationship with crème brûlée - I love how it's so smooth and creamy with a crunchy caramel top, but other times I hate it because it's too thick and creamy that it becomes very jelat to eat ( jelat is a Hokkien term, and I can't really explain it, but it somehow means a point whereby the taste of the food is so strong that your stomach feels uncomfortable after eating a lot of it).īecause of the above fact, I've never tried making a crème brûlée, until the Bake Along! I'm so happy to be baking again alongside with these wonderful ladies - Joyce from Kitchen Flavours, Lena from Frozen Wings and Zoe from Bake for Happy Kids.
