LOBSTER CORN CREME BRULEE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the corn kernels, cream, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 3 to 5 minutes to bring flavors together.
• Whisk the eggs together in a mixing bowl. Stir in a little of the hot corn mixture, to temper the eggs, then add the remaining corn mixture. Transfer the mixture to a blender and puree. Pass the mixture through a fine sieve, into a bowl, using a rubber spatula or small ladle to press out all the liquid. Discard the solids.
• Put 6 (6-ounce) flameproof ceramic ramekins in a 2-inch-deep flameproof baking dish. Ladle in the corn mixture, dividing evenly. Pour hot tap water into the baking dish, filling the dish about half full. Bake for approximately 35 minutes.

CREME BRULEE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Place the cream, vanilla bean and its pulp into a medium saucepan set over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat, cover and allow to sit for 15 minutes. Remove the vanilla bean and reserve for another use.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup sugar and the egg yolks until well blended and it just starts to lighten in color. Add the cream a little at a time, stirring continually. Pour the liquid into 6 (7 to 8-ounce) ramekins. Place the ramekins into a large cake pan or roasting pan. Pour enough hot water into the pan to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake just until the creme brulee is set, but still trembling in the center, approximately 40 to 45 minutes.
• Remove the ramekins from the roasting pan and refrigerate for at least 2 hours and up to 3 days. Remove the creme brulee from the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes prior to browning the sugar on top. Divide the remaining 1/2 cup vanilla sugar equally among the 6 dishes and spread evenly on top. Using a torch, melt the sugar and form a crispy top. Allow the creme brulee to sit for at least 5 minutes before serving.

CREME BRULEE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, mix the egg, egg yolks, and 1/2 cup of the sugar together on low speed until just combined. Meanwhile, scald the cream in a small saucepan until it's very hot to the touch but not boiled. With the mixer on low speed, slowly add the cream to the eggs. Add the vanilla and orange liqueur and pour into 6 to 8-ounce ramekins until almost full.
• Place the ramekins in a baking pan and carefully pour boiling water into the pan to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until the custards are set when gently shaken. Remove the custards from the water bath, cool to room temperature, and refrigerate until firm.
• To serve, spread 1 tablespoon of sugar evenly on the top of each ramekin and heat with a kitchen blowtorch until the sugar carmelizes evenly. Allow to sit at room temperature for a minute until the caramelized sugar hardens.

CORN CREME BRULEE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 300 degrees F. Saute the corn in the butter in a skillet over medium-high heat, until lightly browned. Set aside to cool. Heat the cream, half-and-half, and vanilla bean in a saucepan over medium heat just until it comes to a boil. Immediately turn off the heat and set aside to infuse for 10 minutes. Whisk the egg yolks with 1/2 cup granulated sugar in a large bowl just until combined. Whisking constantly, gradually pour in the hot cream mixture. Strain the custard mixture into a pitcher to smooth it and to remove the vanilla bean. Divide the corn among ramekins or soup plates then top them off with custard. Arrange them in a hot water bath; the water may be very shallow, but that's fine. Bake in the center of the oven until set, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from the water bath and let cool 15 minutes. Tightly cover each custard with plastic wrap, making sure the plastic does not touch the surface. Refrigerate at least 2 hours. When ready to serve, preheat a broiler to very hot (or fire up your kitchen torch). Sprinkle the surface of the custard with an even layer of coarse sugar and place the dishes on a baking sheet. Broil or torch the surface until the sugar is melted and well browned, about 1 minute. Let cool slightly and serve immediately.

CORN AND COCONUT CREME BRULEE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Cut the kernels from the ears of corn. Cut each corncob into 3 pieces.
• Melt the butter in a large saucepot over medium heat. Stir in the corn kernels and 1 teaspoon salt. Saute until just tender, about 5 minutes, being careful not to let the corn or butter brown. Add the corncobs, coconut milk, and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover the pot and cook at a simmer for 15 minutes.
• While the mixture simmers, combine the sugars in a blender or food processor, blend well, and set aside.
• Remove and discard the corncobs. Transfer the mixture to a blender and blend on high speed until smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl, pressing with a silicone spatula to obtain all the pulp; discard any remaining solids. Whisk in 1/2 cup of the sugar mixture, the milk, eggs, egg yolks, and vanilla until thoroughly mixed. Adjust the seasoning to taste with salt, if needed.
• Divide the mixture among six 8-ounce brulee dishes or flameproof ramekins, filling them to just below the rim. Place the dishes in a roasting pan or large baking dish. Pour water into the roasting pan to come about halfway up the sides of the dishes. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and carefully transfer it to the center rack of the oven. Bake until just set, about 35 minutes.
• Remove the dishes from the pan. Refrigerate until well chilled.
• Spread a thin layer of the remaining sugar mixture on top of the baked custards (you may not need it all). Caramelize with a torch. Or place the custards on a baking sheet and caramelize under a preheated broiler. Serve immediately.

CORN CREME BRULEE WITH DUCK PROSCIUTTO

Steps:

• To Finish:
• Put cream and vanilla bean in a saucepan over medium heat and scald. Place egg yolks and sugar in a bowl, and while whisking vigorously, slowly add 8 ounces of the hot cream mixture. Pour the yolks and cream mixture back into custard saucepan and return to high heat, whisking constantly for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Add the corn pudding, whisking to integrate all ingredients, and return to medium heat for 1 minute. At this point stop whisking and stir with a wooden spoon. Add a pinch of salt, to taste. Lower the heat to a simmer and let the foam calm down from whisking. Remove the vanilla bean and halve lengthwise. Scrape the vanilla seeds out of the pod and stir them into the custard.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place 7 shallow creme brulee tureens on a sheet tray and ladle the corn custard into the dishes (each dish should be about 4/5 full). Put the tray in the oven and add about 1/2-inch of water to the tray, creating a water bath. Bake for 40 minutes or until creme brulee is set to the consistency of custard. Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
• Preheat the broiler.
• Sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon of sugar on top of each dish and put under broiler until sugar begins to brown and caramelizes. This should take about 1 minute, but watch closely so that the sugar doesn't burn. Remove from broiler and top with 6 arugula leaves and 5 slices of duck prosciutto on each serving. Sprinkle with chives.
• Warm a medium saucepan over high heat. Add oil, onion, garlic, ginger, nutmeg, and corn, stirring until the onions and corn has begun to brown.
• Stir in the wine and continue cooking over high heat until wine is absorbed. Add milk, salt, and pepper; bring to boil while stirring, then turn heat down and simmer for 5 minutes. Put mixture into a food processor in small batches and puree for about 1 to 2 minutes per batch. Take the pureed mixture and push it through a sieve or a strainer using a rubber spatula or the back of either a ladle or a large spoon. The goal is to strain out the skin of the corn kernels and onions in order to get as smooth a pudding as possible, so there's no break in texture between the pudding and the custard.
