Torched Meringue Creeme Brulee

Definition: A classic dessert in the form of custard (egg cream) that is soft and creamy, with a layer of sugar on top that is burned until the caramel is crispy (crackable). This version is modernized with the addition of torched meringue (burned egg white foam) on top for additional texture and dramatic visuals.

History: The origin is controversial. The first recipe was recorded in a French cookbook in 1691 by François Massialot (the chef of Louis XIV palace). However, similar versions such as Crema Catalana (Spanish) have been around since the 14th century, and "burnt cream" in England since the 15th century. The name "Crème Brûlée" (burnt cream) is popular in France. Cambridge version (Trinity Cream) uses branding iron to stamp the campus logo.

Modernization: The original version is only custard + caramel top. The addition of torched meringue is a contemporary creation of a modern chef to add height, texture, and visual "wow" elements. It still maintains the classic essence but is more Instagramable and complex.

* Custard base: Cream, egg yolk, sugar, vanilla bean/vanilla paste, milk

* Caramelized top: Granulated sugar (torched/burned)

* Meringue topping: Egg white, sugar, a little salt or cream of tartar

* Finishing: A little sea salt or cinnamon powder

Definition: Platter or composition of various premium chocolate elements (mousse, sphere, shell, tuile, etc) that are presented together to create a "symphony" of chocolate flavor and texture.

* Chocolate shells / spheres (dark chocolate & white chocolate)

Chocolate Disc Lava?
