Time 5h25m

Yield 6 brulees, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

5 large egg yolks
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 vanilla bean, halved lengthwise
2 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup diced firm-ripe mango (from 1 1/2 lb mango)
3 tablespoons turbinado sugar (Sugar in the Raw)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees farenheit.
  • Whisk together egg yolks, granulated sugar, and salt in a bowl until combined well.
  • Place this custard mixture into a 2qt saucepan.
  • Using the tip of a knife, scrape seeds from vanilla bean into cream, then add pod.
  • Heat over moderate heat until hot but not boiling.
  • Discard pod and add cream to egg mixture in a slow stream, whisking until combined.
  • Spoon 1/4 c mango into each ramekin.
  • Pour custard through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl, then ladle over mango.
  • Arrange ramekins in a roasting pan and bake in a hot water bath in middle of the oven until custards are just set, 35 to 40 minutes.
  • Transfer custards with tongs to a rack to cool, then chill, uncovered, at least 4 hours.
  • Preheat broiler.
  • Sprinkle turbinado sugar evenly over custards and broil in a shallow baking pan (5 to 7 inches from the heat) until sugar is caramelized, about 2 to 3 minutes.
  • *Note* A blowtorch can be used to caramelize the sugar topping instead of the broiler.
