Basic creme brulee recipe :
1 cup of sugar
2 cups of milk
1 cup of 35% whipping cream
1 tbsp vanilla
pinch of salt
8 egg yolks
Blueberries and raspberries are in season. They are delicious and gives a nice tang to rich and smooth creme brulee.
The egg yolk should be whisked till they are dispersed and "melted". Run it through a sieve. Add full cream, pure vanilla paste and a dash of ground Australian native wattle seed for added oumph.
Using a torch is a luxury if you are prepared to invest in one. However, I find that grilling works just as well. It does not compromise the taste even though the presentation is less glamorous.
