When the moment strikes me i find time to make special treats. My parents 44th wedding anniversary is one of them. I also have to be in the mood to eat egg whites for breakfast.
We start off pretty easy and start with the heavy creme in a pan on the stove and we add our vanilla to it. Set for medium high and bring it to a boil. Once that happens place a lid on it and move it off the heat and let it sit there. Next we are combine half the sugar and the 6 egg yolks in a medium bowl. Mix till they become a pale yellow. Then we are going to take and mix in the creme from the stove. I like to strain out the vanilla bean at this time. Add about a half a cup to temper the eggs at a time mixing the whole time. After you do it about 3 times you can add the rest .
After its been added i like to strain it out again in to a measuring cup with a pour spout. just makes transfer easier. Then we will take and add it to the ramekins. ( https://amzn.to/3fF3CUa ) I like to add a little to test ramekins so i can add coffee to them. Once they are filled add them to your baking pan and fill with water till it comes up half way.
Place in the oven for about 40 - 45 mins. Once they are dont you should have a slight wobble in the middle. Place them in the fridge for about 30 - 2 hours. Remove and then add a thin layer of sugar to them. I then hit them with a propane blow torch ( https://amzn.to/3fK2kHy ) and as the sugar started to bubble i started to spin then so that the sugar got a even coat.
Let them cool down for about 5 mins then serve. The sugar should have a nice crack to it. Enjoy!!!!
