How To Make liquorice crème brûlée
-
Step 1Heat the cream with the liquorice powder until it reaches around 80 degrees (bring to a simmer but do not boil). Remove from the heat and leave for 30 minutes.
-
Step 2Beat the egg yolks and the caster sugar together.
-
Step 3Mix the egg yolk mixture with the liquorice cream and pour into ramekins. Bake in the oven in a bain-marie in a deep roasting tin for about an hour at 100 degrees.
-
Step 4Remove and leave to cool.

Step 5Sprinkle with brown sugar and caramelize with a blowtorch. If you don't have blowtorch, you can also pop them under the grill to caramelize the top but you may need to put them back into the fridge for a little while afterwards to cool down before serving.
