Lemony Creme Brulee Recipe

Yield: 6 Servings
Recipe by luhu.jp

Ingredients:
6: Egg yolks,
3/4 cup: Sugar,
2 cup: Heavy cream,
2/3 cup: Milk,
Grated rind of 1 lemon,
6 tbsp: Brown sugar,

Directions:
Heat heavy cream and lemon rind until almost boiling. Strain. Cream
yolks with sugar until pale and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Slowly pour
hot cream into yolk/sugar mix, stirring gently. Pour mixture into
ungreased oven proof custard cups. Bake in a bain marie at 350 F (150
C) for about 50 minutes, until custard is set. Remove from oven, cool
to room temperature and refrigerate overnight, covered.

Traditional serving suggestion: place cooled custard cups on a baking
sheet. Sprinkle brown sugar evenly but sparingly over the surface of
the custards. Place under a very hot broiler until the sugar just
melts, about 1 minute. Wait another 1 minute and serve. The sugar
should be warm and crispy, and the custard cool and smooth.

Note: I think this custard is better served cold, without the melted
brown sugar on top of it.
