CRèME BACHIQUE - EASY FRENCH RECIPES

Steps:

• For the caramel, put the sugar and 3 tablespoons of the water into a saucepan. Heat gently so that the sugar dissolves but don't let it boil and don't stir (although you can swirl the pan). When the sugar has completely melted turn up the heat and boil until the mixture turns to caramel - you can tell when it does by the dark gold colour and smell. As soon as it reaches the caramel stage, carefully add the rest of the water - it will hiss and splutter. Stir until any lumps have dissolved, then leave to cool completely and thicken.
• To make the creams, in a bowl beat the sugar with the eggs and egg yolks. Add the vanilla. Heat the cream and wine gently in 2 separate saucepans until they are at simmering point. Remove from the heat and add them to the eggs, the wine first, then the cream, stirring as you do so. Strain through a sieve into a jug.
• Heat the oven to 150°C/fan oven 130°C/mark 2. Put 6 buttered, metal, 125ml dariole-type moulds into a roasting tin, keeping them separate from each other. Pour the custard into the moulds, then pour boiling water into the tin to come halfway up the moulds. Cook in the oven for 35 minutes. Allow the creams to cool in the roasting tin, then remove. Cover each one and chill for 4-5 hours. If you have to chill them for longer, bring them out of the fridge about an hour before serving or the texture will be too firm.
• To serve, run a knife round each pudding, dip the moulds briefly into boiling water, then turn them on to plates and pour the caramel over them.

• Combine the onions, mushrooms, and white wine in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the liquid has cooked off. Add the chicken broth to the mushroom mixture and cook for 2 minutes. While stirring, slowly add the cream. Bring the sauce to a boil then reduce the heat to a simmer. Let the liquid cook until the sauce has reduced by 1/4th. In a small bowl, stir together the melted butter and flour until smooth. While stirring, add the flour mixture to the simmering cream sauce. Mix well then cook until the sauce has thickened, about 1 minute.

• Bring to a boil, remove pan from heat source & allow ingredient flavors to infuse till mixture is tepid. Remove & discard lemon peel (or cinnamon stick).
• In a bowl, stir the egg yolks w/a spoon to mix them well & add wine mixture slowly, stirring constantly.
• Pour the mixture thru a fine strainer into individual ramekins & set them in a shallow pan partly filled w/boiling water.
• Bake creams for 20 min or till set. Allow to cool slightly & serve warm -- or -- refrigerate till well-chilled & serve cold.
• NOTES: 1) The recipe did not suggest a particular wine, but did say to use a GOOD white wine. -- 2) The recipe also did not include serving or garnish suggestions, but my choice would be to use the egg whites to make some "Forgotten Cookies" & serve them w/a ramekin of the cream on a dessert plate. I do so hate wasting anything. :-).
