Creme Brulee

I'm not really a dessert person and (believe it or not!!) I don't like chocolate. What I do like though is the taste of vanilla and a small portion of Creme Brulee is one of my favorites.

Ingredients;


1vanilla bean
2 dl cream
2 dl milk
75 gr sugar
4 egg yolks

Brown sugar for the topping.

First cut the vanilla bean lengthwise and scrape out the seeds. Bring cream, milk, sugar, the vanilla bean and its seeds to a boil. Let it stay until cool.

Whip the egg yolks and add the milk mixture while beating.

Pour the batter through a sieve into oven safe dishes. Put them in a deep pan and add water so it covers 1/3 of the dishes.

Bake at 300F for 30-40 minutes or until set. Lets cool. Sprinkle with brown sugar and use a torch to caramelize the sugar. (If you don't have a torch you can use the broil element in your oven).
