Creme Brulee

 
If you can tear your eyes away from our messy kitchen, you will see Matt's Friday night masterpiece: a small, creamy, rich and delicious dish of creme brulee. After peeling away vanilla beans and tossing them in a jar of sugar for a week (hello, new favorite way to sweeten coffee), it was ready to be carefully whisked and folded with cream before being flambeed by my miniature craft torch to create a golden sugar crunch. It was the perfect sweet treat for our date night in. 


What can I say? He knows the key to my heart.
Sugar.

  4. looks good; and by that I mean Matt of course. And the dessert is looking good too. You inherited a love for that; It's always been a favorite.
    You read my mind about the kitchen; ha. Just as I was saying in my head "wow, look at that; that's not "clean as you go"" I scrolled down and read your blog; very funny. And of course you are expecting this: "don't use open flames in your house; you could put your eye out"! Love you both - Dad
