Lavender Brulee with Honey Drizzle
Lavender Brulee with Honey Drizzle is a delectable dessert that combines the floral notes of lavender with the sweetness of honey. This dish is perfect for those who love to indulge in a rich and creamy dessert that is both elegant and easy to make.
To make this Lavender Brulee with Honey Drizzle, you will need the following ingredients per serving:
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon dried lavender buds
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 tablespoon honey
To start, preheat your oven to 325°F. In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream, sugar, and dried lavender buds over medium heat until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is hot but not boiling. Remove from heat and let the mixture steep for 10 minutes.
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolk until it is light and frothy. Slowly pour the lavender cream mixture into the egg yolk, whisking constantly to prevent the egg from cooking. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the lavender buds.
Pour the mixture into a ramekin or oven-safe dish and place it in a baking dish. Fill the baking dish with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the ramekin. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the custard is set but still jiggles slightly in the center.
Remove the ramekin from the water bath and let it cool to room temperature. Once cooled, drizzle the honey over the top of the custard. Use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar on top of the custard until it is golden brown and crispy.
The Lavender Brulee with Honey Drizzle is a perfect combination of creamy, floral, and sweet flavors. The custard is silky smooth and the honey adds a touch of sweetness that complements the lavender perfectly. This dish is perfect for a special occasion or a romantic dinner for two.
