To make this Lavender Earl Grey Brulee with Earl Grey Tea Bag Decor, you will need the following ingredients per serving:
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 Earl Grey tea bag
- 1/2 teaspoon dried lavender
- 3 egg yolks
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar (for brulee topping)
- 1 Earl Grey tea bag (for decoration)
To start, preheat your oven to 325°F. In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream, granulated sugar, Earl Grey tea bag, and dried lavender over medium heat until it comes to a simmer. Remove from heat and let steep for 10 minutes.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and vanilla extract. Slowly pour the cream mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the tea bag and lavender.
Divide the mixture evenly between two ramekins. Place the ramekins in a baking dish and fill the dish with enough hot water to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the custard is set but still jiggles slightly in the center.
Remove the ramekins from the water bath and let cool to room temperature. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight.
When ready to serve, sprinkle 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar evenly over the top of each custard. Use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar until it forms a golden-brown crust.
To decorate, cut the string off an Earl Grey tea bag and sprinkle the loose tea leaves over the top of the brulee.
This Lavender Earl Grey Brulee with Earl Grey Tea Bag Decor is a perfect combination of creamy custard, floral lavender, and bold Earl Grey tea. The brulee topping adds a satisfying crunch, while the tea bag decoration adds a touch of elegance. This dish is a must-try for any dessert lover who wants to impress their guests with a unique and delicious treat.
