Pistachio Creme Brulee

Pistachio Creme Brulee is a delectable dessert that is sure to impress your guests. This creamy and nutty dessert is perfect for any occasion and is easy to make. To make this Pistachio Creme Brulee, you will need the following ingredients:

- 6 egg yolks
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1/2 cup shelled pistachios, finely chopped
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar (for caramelizing)

To start, preheat your oven to 325°F. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and sugar until the mixture becomes pale and thick. Add in the heavy cream, chopped pistachios, vanilla extract, and salt, and whisk until well combined.
Next, pour the mixture into six ramekins and place them in a baking dish. Fill the baking dish with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until the custard is set but still jiggles slightly in the center.
Once the custard has cooled, sprinkle a thin layer of granulated sugar over the top of each ramekin. Use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar until it turns golden brown and forms a crispy crust.
The Pistachio Creme Brulee is now ready to serve. This dessert is a perfect combination of creamy and crunchy textures, with a rich and nutty flavor that is sure to satisfy your sweet tooth. It is best served chilled and garnished with a few chopped pistachios on top.
