Crème caramel is a classic, elegant dessert that beautifully combines a rich custard base with a sweet, caramelized topping. This recipe walks you through the process of creating this timeless dessert, delivering indulgent results with simple ingredients you likely already have at home.
- Ensure your caramel does not burn: While heating the sugar and water, keep a close eye on the mixture as it can quickly go from golden brown to burnt.
- Strain the custard mixture: Pour the egg and milk mixture through a sieve to ensure it's smooth and free from any egg solids before pouring into your caramel-lined ramekins.
- Use a water bath: Place the filled ramekins in a larger baking dish, and fill the dish with hot water halfway up the sides of the ramekins. This technique ensures even cooking and prevents the custard from curdling.
- Chill sufficiently: Allow the creme caramels to chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight to set properly before serving.
- Carefully unmold: To unmold the creme caramels, run a knife around the edge of the ramekin and gently invert onto a plate. Be patient and allow the caramel to flow over the custard for an elegant presentation.
By following these steps, you'll have a batch of beautifully lusciously creamy creme caramels perfect for impressing guests or treating yourself to a delightful dessert. With the golden caramel topping and smooth custard beneath, this classic dessert is sure to become a favorite.
