It dawned on me that I didn't know how to make any sort of impressive dessert from scratch. I figure in the event of a special occasion such as a date night, I would have to field a a proper multi-course meal with dessert. After much soul searching, I decided attempted to make Creme Brulee from scratch. I imported some Madagascar vanilla beans, bought a kitchen torch, borrowed some ramekins, and away I went. It wasn't too difficult to make, just time consuming.<br /> <br /> <div style="text-align: center;"><object width="400" height="300"> <param name="flashvars" value="offsite=true&lang=en-us&page_show_url=%2Fphotos%2Fthe_chan%2Fsets%2F72157624091660090%2Fshow%2F&page_show_back_url=%2Fphotos%2Fthe_chan%2Fsets%2F72157624091660090%2F&set_id=72157624091660090&jump_to="></param> <param name="movie" value="http://www.flickr.com/apps/slideshow/show.swf?v=71649"></param> <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.flickr.com/apps/slideshow/show.swf?v=71649" allowFullScreen="true" flashvars="offsite=true&lang=en-us&page_show_url=%2Fphotos%2Fthe_chan%2Fsets%2F72157624091660090%2Fshow%2F&page_show_back_url=%2Fphotos%2Fthe_chan%2Fsets%2F72157624091660090%2F&set_id=72157624091660090&jump_to=" width="400" height="300"></embed></object></div><br /> <br /> Delicious results. I passed this out to my food tasting guinea pigs, and they seemed to respond positively to it. Tue, 18 May 2010 22:00:36 -0700 http://www.chanproductions.ca/personal/archives/728_guid.html
