The Essence of Crème Brûlée

Crème Brûlée, which literally means “burnt cream” in French, is a dish with a rich history in European cuisine. Its smooth, velvety custard base, flavored with vanilla and other aromatics, is chilled and then topped with a thin layer of sugar, which is caramelized to create a hard, glass-like top layer. This contrast between the creamy custard and the brittle caramelized sugar is what makes Crème Brûlée a perennial favorite.
