Ingredients:
๐ฅ 2 cups heavy cream
๐ณ 5 large egg yolks
๐ฌ ยพ cup granulated sugar
๐ 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
๐ 1 pinch of sea salt
โ๏ธ Ice (for optional chilling)
๐ฑ Fresh mint (for garnish, optional)
Directions:
1๏ธโฃ In a saucepan, combine 2 cups of heavy cream and 1 tsp of pure vanilla extract. Heat over medium heat until steaming but not boiling. Stir to mix flavors. ๐ฅ
2๏ธโฃ In a mixing bowl, whisk together 5 large egg yolks and ยพ cup of granulated sugar until pale and creamy. ๐ณ๐ฅ
3๏ธโฃ Gradually pour the warm cream mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to temper the yolks. This prevents them from scrambling! ๐ถ
4๏ธโฃ Add a pinch of sea salt for flavor enhancement and mix well. ๐
5๏ธโฃ Strain the mixture through a fine sieve into 6 ramekins to ensure smoothness.
6๏ธโฃ Place the ramekins in a baking dish and fill the dish with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the ramekins. This creates a gentle steaming effect while baking. ๐
7๏ธโฃ Bake at 325ยฐF for about 40-45 minutes until set with a slight jiggle in the middle. ๐ฝ๏ธ
8๏ธโฃ Remove from the oven, let cool, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or overnight for best results). โ๏ธ
9๏ธโฃ Before serving, sprinkle a thin layer of granulated sugar on top of each custard and use a kitchen torch to caramelize until golden and crispy. Be careful and watch it closely! ๐ฅ
๐ Serve with mint garnish for an elegant touch and enjoy your delightful creation! ๐ฑ
