Cream Brulee

Video:How to Make Creme Brulee

Quote:  Recipe from youtube:
To complete this How-To you will need:

4 extra large egg yolks
An extra large egg
1 c. sugar, divided
3 c. heavy cream
1 tsp. vanilla extract
2-3 tbsp. softened butter
Electric mixer with paddle (optional)
6 8-oz. ramekins (optional)
Large baking or roasting pan (optional)
Kitchen blowtorch (optional)

Step 1: Mix eggs and sugar

Preheat your oven to 300 degrees and bring a kettle of water to boil. Add the egg yolks, the egg, and ½ cup of the sugar to the mixer and blend on low speed until the ingredients are just combined.

Step 2: Heat cream

Gently heat the cream in a small saucepan over medium heat for 6 or 7 minutes, until bubbles start to form around the edge of the pan.

Tip: Make sure the cream is not boiling or the brulee will taste burned.

Step 3: Blend

Slowly and gradually add the hot cream to the eggs and mix on low speed. Then add the vanilla and pour into six 8-ounce buttered ramekins.

Tip: Adding hot liquid to eggs a little at a time is called tempering and prevents the eggs from curdling or cooking.

Step 4: Prepare ramekins

Place the ramekins in your baking or roasting pan and pour boiling water into the pan until it's halfway up the outsides of the ramekins. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, until the custard is just set. The custard will move slightly in the center when you gently shake the ramekins.

Step 5: Cool

Carefully remove the ramekins from the water bath, allow them to cool to room temperature, and then refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

Step 6: Serve

Sprinkle 1½ to 2 tablespoons of the remaining sugar evenly on top of each ramekin. Heat the sugar with the torch, keeping the flame 1 to 2 inches above the surface, until the sugar bubbles, turns amber, and becomes smooth. Wait 1 minute for the sugar to harden and then serve.

Straw Mushrooms

Video: How To : Yum Hed Fang (Straw Mushroom Spicy Salad) 

http://www.openchiangmai.com Hot and spicy taste with Straw mushroom spicy salad. You can season the taste as you like. The taste should be sour and spicy but if you like sweet, just put more sugar.

Straw mushrooms are a common ingredient of Thai cuisine, often used in Tom-Yum spicy soup and in other dishes. Where you would use white-cap mushrooms, Thai's normally use Straw or Shitake mushrooms. Best bought fresh, also available canned, I don't recommend the dried mushrooms, straw mushrooms lose a lot of flavour when they are dried.
