Crème Brûlée Base

Toppings

Method

Prepare the Crème Brûlée

1

Infuse the Cream

In a saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it begins to simmer. Remove from heat, add the Earl Grey tea bags, and let steep for about 15 minutes.

2

Mix the Egg Yolks

In a bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and granulated sugar until pale and creamy. Gradually whisk in the infused cream, making sure to remove the tea bags.

3

Bake the Custard

Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Pour the custard mixture into ramekins and place them in a baking dish. Fill the baking dish with boiling water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until set but still slightly jiggly in the center.

4

Cool the Custard

Remove the ramekins from the water and allow them to cool to room temperature. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Caramelize and Serve

5

Caramelize the Sugar

Sprinkle a thin layer of granulated sugar on top of each chilled custard. Using a kitchen torch, caramelize the sugar until it forms a crispy shell. If you don’t have a torch, you can place the ramekins under a broiler for a few minutes, watching closely to prevent burning.

6

Serve

Top each crème brûlée with a dollop of whipped cream, a drizzle of caramel sauce, and garnish with fresh gooseberries. Enjoy!
