CRÈME BRULÉE ICE CREAM
Makes ten 1/2-cup (125 ml) servings
2-1/2
cups (625 ml) heavy cream
1-1/4
cups (300 ml) whole milk
1
vanilla bean, split lengthwise
6
large egg yolks
3/4
cup (180 ml) light or dark brown sugar, packed
1/4
teaspoon (1 ml) salt
1
tablespoon (15 ml) pure vanilla extract
Place cream, milk and vanilla bean in a heavy 3-3/4 quart (3.6 L)
saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium low heat. Reduce heat to low
and simmer for 15 minutes.
Place egg yolks and brown sugar in a medium bowl. Using a hand
mixer, beat on highest speed until thick and pale tan, and mixture forms
a ribbon when beaters are lifted, about 3 minutes. With the mixer on
low speed, slowly add 1 cup (250 ml) of the hot cream/milk mixture to
the egg yolk/sugar mixture. Stir the egg/cream mixture back into the
simmering cream/milk. Cook over medium low heat, stirring constantly,
just until the mixture reaches 160°C (70°C) on a candy or instant read
thermometer – do not boil. Strain the custard through a sieve into a
medium bowl. Using the back of a knife, scrape out the seeds of the
vanilla bean; stir seeds into the custard. Stir in salt and vanilla extract.
Place a sheet of plastic wrap directly on the custard. Place in the
refrigerator until completely chilled, at least 8 hours. Custard can be
prepared a day ahead.

BRULÉE CRUNCH
1
teaspoon (5 ml) unsalted butter, melted
3/4
cup (180 ml) granulated sugar
1/2
teaspoon (2 ml) water
Use a baking sheet with sides, and line it with a sheet of aluminum foil.
Brush foil to coat with melted butter; reserve. Place sugar in heavy
weight 10-inch (25 cm) nonstick skillet.
Cook sugar over medium-high heat, shaking occasionally, until the sugar
begins to melt – do not leave unattended. While sugar is melting, cook
and stir with a wooden spoon for about 3 to 4 minutes, until sugar is
melted and coppery in colour. Remove from heat. Carefully stir in 1/2
teaspoon (2 ml) water – mixture will bubble up slightly. Pour immediately
onto prepared sheet, spreading the sugar as thinly as possible – do not
touch with fingers; melted sugar will burn skin. Let cool for 30 minutes.
When cool, break into shards. Store in a tightly sealed container. Sprinkle
over Crème Brulée Ice Cream just before serving.
