Raspberry Creme Brulee Recipe
- Gelee
- 1/8 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup raspberry puree (seedless)
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 teaspoons agar powder (a natural thickener, available at specialty stores)
- Brule
- 1 pint milk
- 1 pint cream
- 10 egg yolks
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 vanilla bean
- For the gelee, you will need to work several hours in advance, a day is even better so the gelee can set overnight.
- Combine all the ingredients in a sauce pan and simmer gently for 5 minutes.
- Pour into oven-proof dishes in which you will ultimately serve your brule.
- All you need is a thin layer in each dish, approximately A 1/4 cup in each dish.
- Place in cooler (refrigerator) until completely set (several hours or overnight).
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. For the brule, you will need to split the vanilla bean in half and scrape out the seeds with the back of a pairing knife.
- Heat the cream to a high simmer in a thick-bottomed sauce pan.
- Add the vanilla pod and seeds to the cream, turn off the heat and allow to steep for 10 minutes.
- In a stainless steel bowl, whisk the sugar into the yolks.
- Whisk for one minute until it forms ribbons, then add the milk.
- Pour in the cream after it has steeped for 10 minutes and has had a chance to cool a bit.
- Remove the pod but leave the seeds.
- You will need a water bath.
- This is simply a pan filled with warm water that can hold your brule dishes.
- The water should be just deep enough to come half way up the dishes.
- This water helps to protect the delicate custard from getting too hot and scrambling.
- Remove the dishes from the cooler (refrigerator) and divide the brule mix evenly among them.
- Bake in a water bath until the custard is set.
- The timing is difficult to determine because it depends on the shape and depth of the dishes you use.
- But you can expect to be watching these anywhere from 25 minutes to 45 minutes.
- They should just wiggle a bit when wiggled.
