Creme Brulee — French recipe

Creme Brulee

Cream, yolks and vanilla baked slowly in a tray of water until barely set, chilled overnight, then covered in sugar and burnt hard just before it goes to the table. Cold custard under a hot glass lid is the entire point, so the sugar goes on at the last minute and not before.
