You know, I was going to try this one, but I keep leaving my blowtorch in my other purse! You tease, you know this is one of my all-time favorites. You'll have to make it for me when you visit. Hmmm, that should be a fun-filled trip through airport security.

First time I ever tried Creme Brulee was in the lodge restaurant at Sun River. It was a Harry Met Sally moment - made the hubby smile.

Great basic recipe for creme brulee. How do I add flavoring to it? Like if I wanted to make a chocolate or mocha creme brulee. Or the one I really want to make is ginger orange.
