Cook ingredients that you are used to cooking by other techniques, such as fish, chicken, or hamburgers. In other words be comfortable with the ingredients you are using.

We are not dessert folks. Sure we like the occasional sweet treat but it's not something we have on a regular basis by any stretch of the imagination. We started cruising six years ago with Norwegian Cruise Lines and to date have been on six cruises and have several booked in the hopes of getting out of these lockdowns soon! We had to cancel four booked cruises in 2020 and so far three this year.
One of the things we love about cruising is the food! Honestly, Norwegian is top notch for this. Hubby tried the
Crème brûlée that quickly became his favourite. This delectable dessert means burnt cream. It's also known as Trinity cream. Crème brûlée is simply a custard base topped with a hard sugar crust. So I decided to try my hand at duplicating this dessert. Crème brûlée is not difficult to make. Simply prepare your oven proof bowls and place them in a bain marie. Prepare the custard and pour into the prepared bowls. Bake the custard until set. Remove from oven and let cool. Top with sugar of choice. Pop them under the broiler OR use a Crème brûlée torch to melt and brown the sugar. I used the broiler method but really thing the torch would have given nicer results.
Crème brûlée will keep nicely in the refrigerator for a couple of days, perfect for preparing ahead for company. I was very impressed at how easy they were to make. A lovely taste of Norwegian while waiting for things to open up!
