Recipe
- Clean the cauliflower by removing hte outer leaves. Separate the florets from the stem and cut the larger ones in half. Finely slice the shallots.
- Melt the butter in a large saucepan, then gently sauté the shallots and cauliflower florets without letting them burn. Season with salt and a little sugar. Deglaze with the vermouth,allow it to reduce, then add the EKABE whipping cream.
- Cover the cauliflower and cook for 20 minutes until tender. Season with lemon juice, 5 minutes before the end of cooking.
- Using a blender, purée the cauliflower until very smooth. Pass through a fine sieve and leave to cool slightly. Add the egg yolks and mix well.
- Divide the mixture between heatproof ramekins. Place them in a deep baking tray and fill the tray with hot water until it reaches just below the rims of the ramekins. In a preheated oven, place the baking tray on the second shelf from the botton and bake the crème brûlées at 130°C (fan-oven) for 30 minutes. Once out of the oven, allow them to cool, then refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours.
- Sprinkle the ramekins with brown sugar and caramelise the crème brûlées using a kitchen blowtorch. Allow to cool for about 1 minute so the caramel sets, then serve.
