Week 9: Coffee - Coffee Creme Brulee

After last week’s extremely simple recipe, I went for something more ambitious and technically difficult. Creme Brulee! This Coffee Creme Brulee came from Epicurious.

Most important thing about it? Patience, and a blow torch. I tried using the oven broiler, but it started to recook the custard. I then used my grill lighter, cramping my hand as I tried to make some sugar melt into a crust like state.

The creme itself was very very tasty. Since it made so many baby ramekins (1/2c) I might have to buy a blowtorch and redo the photos.
