Chai creme brulee
One of the kiddos sent me this link and I wanted to make this for the house to enjoy this weekend. I've only made creme brulee a few times but this came together quickly. It was excellent.
Mix in a large bowl-
6 egg yolks
2 egg
150 g sugar
Whisk together
In a large pot, heat everything over medium heat, whisking often until it comes to a simmer, simmer a minute or two
855 ml of heavy cream
4 opened black tea bags
8 cloves
5 cardamon pods ( I think this is supposed to be green cardamom but I used 1 large crushed)
1.5 cinnamon sticks
3 allspice seeds crushed
Strain through a sieve
Wait until it's slightly cooled and then pour slowly into the eggs with a whisk
Strain again
Stir in 1 tsp vanilla
Pour into 8 ramekins set in a large roasting pan
While the oven is heating to 325, boil some hot water for the the bain-marie
When the oven is to temperature, place the roasting pan into the oven and THEN add in enough water to come up half way up the ramekins, being careful not to splash into the ramekins
Bake for 45-47mins
The puddings should be slightly wobbly, not set, not liquid
Cool in the fridge for at least 2 hours
Top with sugar and torch until you get a nice crispy crust
