Blueberry Sour Cream Creme Brulee Food

BLUEBERRY CREME BRULEE

Steps:

• Add ingredients for blueberry sauce to a medium sauce pan. Place over medium high heat and bring to boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until berries burst and sauce thickens. Distribute evenly among 4 6-ounce ramekins. Place into a square baking dish. set aside.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place egg yolks in a medium bowl and whisk until blended. Combine cream, milk, sugar, and salt in a medium sauce pan and heat on medium. Stir to dissolve the sugar and heat-through the mixture. Do not let it boil! Remove mixture when sugar is dissolved.
• Add vanilla extract to milk mixture. Slowly whisk in 1/4 cup of hot milk mixture into egg yolks to heat them up without scrambling. Whisk in the remaining milk mixture. If you have any egg chunks, strain the mixture.
• Ladle the custard mixture into the ramekins very gently so the blueberry sauce does not completely mix with the blueberry sauce. It will swirl a little but not turn completely blue. Fill the ramekins almost to the very top, leaving about 1/2 inch.
• Boil water and pour into baking dish, creating a bath for the ramekins. Fill about halfway up the ramekins. Bake in preheated oven for 1 hour 10 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes, until set but center still jiggles. Cook time depends on the height of your ramekins. Mine were tall so they took about 1 hour 20 minutes.
• Remove from oven and carefully remove ramekins from hot water bath. I used a fork and a pot holder to achieve this. Let cool to room temperature and then place in refrigerator to thicken and chill, at least 4 hours.
• Once cooled and right before serving, place about 1 - 1 1/2 teaspoons of superfine sugar on top of each custard shake around to create an even layer of sugar. Torch with blow torch to caramelize the sugar. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 Place cream into medium saucepan over medium high heat and bring to a boil. In a medium bowl whisk together 3/4 C sugar, lemon zest, sour cream, and the egg yolks until well blended and it just starts to lighten in color. Add the cream a little at a time, stirring continuously. Put blueberries into 8 ramekins (15 per dish) Pour the egg and cream mix over the blueberries. Place the ramekins into a large cake pan or roasting pan. Pour enough hot water into the pan to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake just until the creme brulee is set, but still trembling in the center, 40-45 mins. Remove ramekins from the roasting pan and refrigerate at least 2 hours, but up to 3 days. Divide 1/2 C sugar equally among the 8 dishes and spread evenly on top. Using a torch, melt the sugar and form a crispy top. Allow it to sit 5 mins before serving.

BLUEBERRY CREME BRULEE TART

Steps:

• Sugared Blueberries:.
• Lightly brush the blueberries with corn syrup and roll in sugar. Set aside.
• Crust:.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Place the flour, butter, and sour cream in a food processor and pulse to combine. When the dough has formed a ball, pat with lightly floured hands into the bottom and sides of an ungreased 10-inch tart pan with a removable bottom and 1/2-inch sides. Bake for about 20 minutes, until the crust is set and only lightly browned if at all. Let cool while preparing the filling.
• Filling:.
• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. In a heavy-bottomed medium nonreactive saucepan, heat cream over medium-low heat for 15 minutes, stirring to ensure it does not burn; do not let boil. Add 1/4 cup heavy cream to beaten eggs. Mix together. Slowly add hot cream to mixture and add 1/2 cup sugar. Mix thoroughly.
• Gently spread the blueberry preserves over the bottom of the baked and cooled tart shell, in a thin layer. Gently pour the custard over the preserves. Bake for 40 minutes or until the mixture is almost set in the center (it should still wiggle when shaken). Let cool to room temperature and then refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to 24 hours.
• Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup sugar in a thin, even layer over the baked custard filling. To caramelize the sugar, light a propane torch and hold it so the flame just touches the surface. Start at the center and spiral out toward the edges of the tart shell. If the sugar begins to burn, pull the torch away and blow on the sugar to extinguish the flame. Top with sugared blueberries. Pop out bottom of pan and serve.
