-------- ------------ --------------------------------
3/4 cup milk
2 1/4 cups heavy cream
2 vanilla beans -- cut in half lengthwise
1/2 cup white sugar
1 pinch salt
10 California Fresh Egg Yolks
1/4 cup brown sugar
6 flute flan or quiche dishes -- 5-inches in and 1-inch deep.
Preheat oven to 300ºF.
Place milk, cream, vanilla bean, sugar and salt in a saucepan and whisk
until well combined. Heat until the mixture begins to boil. Remove from
heat; remove vanilla bean and scrape the seeds into the cream mixture. Let
cool and infuse 1/2 hour. Add egg yolks while whisking, until well
combined.

full with the crème brûlée mixture. Place in oven and fill baking sheet
3/4 full with hot water. Bake 1 hour or until the cream is set. Remove the
dishes from the hot water bath and set aside to cool.

NOTES : Crème brûlée is best if caramelized with a torch or
salamander, but not all home cooks are so well equipped.
If not available, place the cooled crème brûlée in the
refrigerator until chilled. When ready to serve, place the
sugar coated crème in a preheated broiler, 6 inches from
the flame, being careful not to burn the sugar.
