Ingredients
Cream, sugar, eggs… Caramel
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 2 eggs
- 2 egg yolks
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 cup sugar (For the caramel)
- 2 tbsps water (For the caramel)
- 1 tsp white wine vinegar
- A few drops vanilla extract
Tools
Bain-marie tray, bowl, and aluminum molds or single mold, small pan for caramel
Steps
Prepare the caramel using the 200 grams of sugar, the teaspoon of vinegar to prevent crystallization, and the water. Put it on the stove at a low flame, stirring continuously, until it caramelizes. When you get a nice amber color, turn off to avoid it becoming slightly bitter.
Immediately pour into the molds that you have already arranged in the bain-marie tray.
Now you can whisk together the eggs, yolks, and sugar until well mixed.
Add a few drops of vanilla extract, and the cream
Mix well and thoroughly
You can now pour the mixture into the molds and add the water for the bain-marie. Bake in a preheated oven at 392°F until cooked. If you bake in a cold oven, increase the cooking time, which you will notice by the consistency and color; do the toothpick test anyway…
Once out of the oven, let them cool and then rest for an hour in the refrigerator. They taste even better the next day!
Creme caramel ready, just to be enjoyed!
