Instructions
- Separate egg whites from Egg Yolks, placing Yolks in a medium size mixing bowl. Place egg whites in a refrigerator for other dishes.
- Pour Cream into a medium saucepan and add Vanilla and Salt. Warm the mixture over medium heat until very warm to the touch (160°F - 175°F). Remove from heat and set aside.
- Add Sugar to the Egg Yolks, and mix well. Temper the egg yolk mixture by pouring a small amount of the warmed cream mixture into the bowl. Mix well, then pour in the remaining cream mixture and mix well. Strain the mixture through a mesh strainer to make it silky smooth.
- Pour the cream mixture into 4 standard (or six 6 oz) ramekins, until 85% full. Remove surface air bubbles by touching them with a spoon. Seal the tops of the ramekins with aluminum foil.
- Add 1 cup of water and a steamer rack in Instant Pot. Place ramekins on the steamer rack, stacking them if necessary.
- Pressure Cook at Low Pressure for 15 minutes, followed by 15 minutes natural release (don’t open the pressure valve). Then, release remaining pressure.
- Take out one of the ramekins and check for doneness. The center of the custard should jiggle a little, but not the edges. If the whole custard jiggles, pressure cook them for an additional 3 minutes.
- Place ramekins on a cooling rack for an hour. Then place them in the refrigerator and chill for at least 4 hours.
- When ready to serve, spread 1 teaspoon of Sugar evenly over the top of each custard. Use a torch to caramelize the Sugar, to form a crispy top. Allow crème brûlée to sit for a couple of minutes before serving. You can also place the ramekins under a broiler to caramelize the Sugar. Enjoy!
