Corn And Coconut Creme Brulee Food

CORN CREME BRULEE

Steps:

• Remove the husk from the ears of corn and cut the kernels off. In a nonstick saute pan melt the butter and saute the corn kernels until they cook and have a few brown specks on them.
• In a medium saucepan, heat the cream, milk, and half the Sauteed corn kernels over medium heat, stirring occasionally, just until it comes to a boil. Immediately turn off the heat and set aside to infuse at least 15 minutes. Puree the mixture with a hand blender until smooth.
• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the granulated sugar. Whisking constantly, gradually pour in the hot cream mixture. Strain the mixture into a pitcher. Sprinkle the remaining corn kernels into 8 (6 to 8 ounce) ovenproof ramekins. Pour the cream/corn mixture into the bowls and arrange in a hot water bath. Bake at 300 degrees F, in the center of the oven until almost set but still a bit soft in the center, 30 to 40 minutes. The custard should "shimmy" a bit when you shake the pan; it will firm up more as it cools. Remove from the water bath and let cool 15 minutes. Tightly cover each bowl with plastic wrap, making sure the plastic does not touch the surface of the custard. Refrigerate at least 2 hours. (Or refrigerate until ready to serve, up to 24 hours.)
• Preheat a broiler to very hot (or fire up your kitchen torch). Uncover the chilled custards. Pour as much sugar as will fit onto the top of one of the custards. Pour off the excess sugar onto the next custard. Repeat until all the custards are coated. Discard any remaining sugar. Place the bowls on a baking sheet or in a roasting pan and broil until the sugar is melted and well browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Or brown them with a blowtorch. Let cool 1 minute before serving.

COCONUT CREME BRULEE

Steps:

• Special equipment: six heat-safe 5-ounce coffee mugs or oven-safe ramekins
• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Combine the coconut milk, cream and coconut extract in a small saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Once at a boil, remove from the heat.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the eggs and 5 tablespoons sugar in a bowl until combined.
• Slowly whisk the heated cream mixture into the eggs, stirring constantly.
• Divide the mixture among six heat-safe 5-ounce coffee mugs or oven-safe ramekins, filling them about 3/4 of the way up. Put them in a baking dish and add enough warm water to the baking dish so that it comes halfway up the sides of the coffee mugs.
• Bake until the center is nearly set. Baking time will depend on the height of your coffee mug or ramekin. Bake time is 10 minutes for every 1/2 inch of height. For a 1-inch vessel, bake the creme brulees about 20 minutes. For a 2-inch vessel, bake the creme brulees about 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to completely cool in the water bath, then refrigerate 15 to 20 minutes before serving.
• Before serving, sprinkle the tops with a heavy layer of sugar and brulee using a hand torch or heating under the broiler for 2 to 3 minutes.

CORN CREME BRULEE WITH DUCK PROSCIUTTO

Steps:

• To Finish:
• Put cream and vanilla bean in a saucepan over medium heat and scald. Place egg yolks and sugar in a bowl, and while whisking vigorously, slowly add 8 ounces of the hot cream mixture. Pour the yolks and cream mixture back into custard saucepan and return to high heat, whisking constantly for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Add the corn pudding, whisking to integrate all ingredients, and return to medium heat for 1 minute. At this point stop whisking and stir with a wooden spoon. Add a pinch of salt, to taste. Lower the heat to a simmer and let the foam calm down from whisking. Remove the vanilla bean and halve lengthwise. Scrape the vanilla seeds out of the pod and stir them into the custard.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place 7 shallow creme brulee tureens on a sheet tray and ladle the corn custard into the dishes (each dish should be about 4/5 full). Put the tray in the oven and add about 1/2-inch of water to the tray, creating a water bath. Bake for 40 minutes or until creme brulee is set to the consistency of custard. Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
• Preheat the broiler.
• Sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon of sugar on top of each dish and put under broiler until sugar begins to brown and caramelizes. This should take about 1 minute, but watch closely so that the sugar doesn't burn. Remove from broiler and top with 6 arugula leaves and 5 slices of duck prosciutto on each serving. Sprinkle with chives.
• Warm a medium saucepan over high heat. Add oil, onion, garlic, ginger, nutmeg, and corn, stirring until the onions and corn has begun to brown.
• Stir in the wine and continue cooking over high heat until wine is absorbed. Add milk, salt, and pepper; bring to boil while stirring, then turn heat down and simmer for 5 minutes. Put mixture into a food processor in small batches and puree for about 1 to 2 minutes per batch. Take the pureed mixture and push it through a sieve or a strainer using a rubber spatula or the back of either a ladle or a large spoon. The goal is to strain out the skin of the corn kernels and onions in order to get as smooth a pudding as possible, so there's no break in texture between the pudding and the custard.

CORN CREME BRULEE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 300 degrees F. Saute the corn in the butter in a skillet over medium-high heat, until lightly browned. Set aside to cool. Heat the cream, half-and-half, and vanilla bean in a saucepan over medium heat just until it comes to a boil. Immediately turn off the heat and set aside to infuse for 10 minutes. Whisk the egg yolks with 1/2 cup granulated sugar in a large bowl just until combined. Whisking constantly, gradually pour in the hot cream mixture. Strain the custard mixture into a pitcher to smooth it and to remove the vanilla bean. Divide the corn among ramekins or soup plates then top them off with custard. Arrange them in a hot water bath; the water may be very shallow, but that's fine. Bake in the center of the oven until set, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from the water bath and let cool 15 minutes. Tightly cover each custard with plastic wrap, making sure the plastic does not touch the surface. Refrigerate at least 2 hours. When ready to serve, preheat a broiler to very hot (or fire up your kitchen torch). Sprinkle the surface of the custard with an even layer of coarse sugar and place the dishes on a baking sheet. Broil or torch the surface until the sugar is melted and well browned, about 1 minute. Let cool slightly and serve immediately.

NO-BAKE COCONUT CRÈME BRÛLÉE

Steps:

• In a pan, heat the cream, coconut cream, lime leaves, vanilla pod and seeds to just below boiling point. Leave to infuse for 1 hr, or chill overnight if you have time. Bring back to temperature before continuing.
• Whisk the egg yolks, sugar and cornflour in a bowl. Slowly add a ladle of the hot cream to the egg mixture, whisking constantly. Pour the egg mixture into the pan with the cream and cook over a low heat for 8-10 mins until thick, stirring continuously - the mixture should be much thicker than a classic custard at this stage, but don't take it too far or the eggs in the custard will curdle.
• Pour through a sieve into the crème brûlée dish. Chill overnight, or for at least 1 hr until the custard has set.
• To serve, sprinkle caster sugar over the top of the custard and caramelise with a blowtorch. (Do not caramelise under a grill as it takes too long and the custard will melt.)
