Required Kitchen Tools

When preparing Crème Brûlée, having the right kitchen tools makes the process much smoother. Here’s what I personally use to create the perfect dessert:
  1. Emile Henry Ceramic Ramekins – These hold and distribute heat beautifully, ensuring an even bake.
  2. Mixing Bowls – For whisking eggs and sugar until light and frothy.
  3. Saucepan – To gently heat and infuse the cream with cardamom.
  4. Fine Mesh Strainer – To remove any lumps and ensure a silky custard texture.
  5. Baking Dish – For the water bath, which keeps the custard from curdling.
  6. Culinary Torch – To caramelize the sugar topping into that signature golden crust.
Having these essentials on hand ensures you’ll get the most professional results, right in your own kitchen.
