8 servings
- •8 large egg yolks
- •1 ¼ cups white sugar
- •3 tablespoons cornstarch
- •1 organic lemon
- •4 cups whole milk
- •1 (2 inch) piece cinnamon stick
- •1 (3 inch) vanilla bean, split and scraped
- •8 tablespoons turbinado sugar
Instructions
- Combine egg yolks and sugar in a bowl and beat with an electric mixer until creamy. Mix in cornstarch.
- Peel lemon in one piece. Combine milk, lemon peel, cinnamon stick, and vanilla seeds in a heavy saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Remove from heat, cover, and allow the milk to get infused with the flavorings for 30 minutes and cool. Whisk egg yolk-sugar mixture into the lukewarm milk.
- Return to heat and simmer, stirring constantly, over low heat until cream thickens, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove lemon peel and cinnamon stick. Spoon cream into 8 ovenproof ramikens and allow to cool completely, at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
- Sprinkle 1 tablespoon turbinado sugar onto each ramiken and set under the broiler until sugar caramelizes, 1 to 2 minutes. Pay close attention so sugar does not burn.
