Rhubarb Creme Caramel Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Lightly spray 4 heatproof 6.5-oz. ramekins with vegetable spray. Place ramekins in a casserole dish.
• Place 1/2 cup sugar in a small, heavy, dry skillet over medium heat. When sugar begins to melt around the edges, gently shake the pan continually, swirling sugar around, until all the sugar melts; don't use utensils to stir. When sugar is completely melted and dark brown, remove the pan from heat.
• Quickly pour equal amounts of caramel syrup into the 4 prepared ramekins.
• Place 1 egg and 3 egg yolks in a bowl with a pinch of salt and 1/4 cup sugar. Whisk until sugar is dissolved and mixture becomes frothy, about 1 minute.
• Spoon the creme fraiche into the egg mixture; add the milk, vanilla, and Grand Marnier. Whisk together until ingredients are completely mixed.
• Ladle mixture into the prepared ramekins, filling them about 2/3 to 3/4 full.
• Fill casserole with hot tap water to reach halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Place casserole on middle rack of preheated oven.
• Bake until just barely set, 45 to 50 minutes. You can start checking for doneness at about 40 minutes.
• Using tongs, remove the ramekins from the casserole to a cooling rack. When just slightly warm, run a sharp paring knife around the edge of each custard.
• To unmold, cover ramekin with a small plate, then invert. Chill before serving.

Steps:

• In a saucepan over medium heat, melt 3 tablespoons butter. Add brown sugar, 1/4 cup sugar and cornstarch. Gradually stir in water and rhubarb; cook and stir until thickened, 5-8 minutes. Add food coloring if desired. Pour into a greased 2-qt. baking dish and set aside. , In another bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt and remaining sugar. Melt remaining butter; add to dry ingredients with milk. Mix well. Drop by tablespoonfuls onto rhubarb mixture. Bake at 350° for 35-40 minutes or until the fruit is bubbly and the top is golden brown. Sprinkle with cinnamon-sugar. Serve warm, with whipped cream or ice cream if desired.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, cream shortening and sugar until light and fluffy. Add egg; beat well. Combine flour and baking soda; add to creamed mixture alternately with buttermilk. Fold in rhubarb. Transfer to a greased 13x9-in. baking pan., For topping, in a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, flour and cinnamon; cut in butter until crumbly. Sprinkle over batter., Bake at 350° for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before serving., For sauce, in a small saucepan, melt butter. Stir in brown sugar and cream; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer for 3 to 4 minutes or until slightly thickened. Serve with warm coffee cake.

Steps:

• In a heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat, whisk together the milk, 3/4 cup sugar, the salt, the vanilla bean seeds and its pod. Simmer gently until sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, cover, and steep 30 minutes. Discard the vanilla pod and return mixture to a bare simmer.
• Place the yolks in a large bowl. Slowly whisk in hot milk mixture. Scrape the custard back into the pot and cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 5 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl. Whisk in sour cream. Chill at least 3 hours or overnight.
• In a saucepan, combine the rhubarb with 1 cup sugar. Simmer until rhubarb is just tender and has begun releasing its juices, but has not started to fall apart, 4 to 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer rhubarb to a bowl. Continue to simmer the juices until syrupy, 5 to 10 minutes more. Pour the syrup over the rhubarb. Cool completely.
• In a clean, dry and preferably nonstick skillet, sprinkle 2 tablespoons sugar over medium heat. When it begins to melt and lightly color, sprinkle in 2 more tablespoons and start swirling pan to help evenly distribute sugar. Add the final 2 tablespoons and cook, swirling pan until all the sugar has melted. Let cook, swirling occasionally, until the sugar syrup caramelizes and turns dark brown. Pour in the heavy cream and 2 tablespoons water (stand back; it may splatter). Simmer, stirring with a heatproof rubber spatula until smooth. Cool completely.
• Pour the custard base into an ice cream machine and churn. Add rhubarb compote for the last minute of churning.
• Scrape a quarter of the caramel into the bottom of a freezer-proof quart container. Top with a quarter of the ice cream. Repeat layering until all of the caramel and ice cream has been used, ending with the ice cream. Freeze until firm for at least 2 hours and up to 1 week.

Steps:

• For the crème caramel, put the milk and marjoram sprigs into a saucepan, then bring the milk just to the boil. Remove from the heat and allow to cool and infuse. Heat oven to 140C/120C fan/ gas 1. Put 4 x 125-150ml ramekin dishes in a small roasting tin.
• Meanwhile, make the caramel. Tip 100g of the sugar and 2 tbsp of water into a medium, heavy-based saucepan. Heat over a very low heat until the sugar has dissolved - about 7-8 mins, then turn the heat to high and boil, without stirring, until the syrup turns a deep golden caramel colour, 4-5 mins. Remove from the heat, let the bubbles briefly subside, then carefully pour the hot caramel into ramekins. Leave to set, 5 mins. Whisk together (using a wire whisk or fork) the eggs and the remaining 50g of sugar for the crème caramel. Pour the cooled milk over the eggs and sugar, then whisk again.
• Strain the milk mixture into a jug, then pour into the ramekins. Pour enough hot water into the roasting tin to come halfway up the ramekins. Bake for 30 mins, or until set with a slight wobble in the middle. Carefully remove from the water, leave to cool, then refrigerate for a few hrs or overnight. Meanwhile, increase the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5.
• For the rhubarb, pour 200ml water into a wide shallow pan. Tip in the sugar, the star anise, scrape out the seeds from the vanilla pod into the pan, then drop in the pod. Heat very slowly until the sugar has dissolved. Bring to the boil, then boil to reduce by a third (takes about 6-8 mins). Lay the rhubarb in the pan in a single layer then simmer very gently for about 2-3 mins for young, thin pieces or up to 5 mins for thicker pieces, until just soft but still holding its shape. Stir in a tiny bit of red food colouring if you want to make the syrup a shade pinker. Leave rhubarb to marinate in the syrup until cold.
• To make the crumble, rub the flour, butter and sugar through your fingers to make fine crumbs. Scatter onto a small baking tray in an even layer and bake about 12-15 mins, or until pale golden brown. Remove and cool. All can be prepared a day ahead to this stage.
• To serve, drain the rhubarb, reserving the syrup. If this is very thin, reduce in a small pan to a thick-ish syrup. Turn out each crème caramel onto a small plate, then, using a wide palette knife or spatula, carefully lift each one onto a larger serving plate, placing it to one side. Spoon a little of the drained caramel on top. Arrange a small, neat pile of 5 rhubarb pieces per serving next to each crème caramel. Scatter a little crumble and a few marjoram leaves over the rhubarb. (Any leftover crumble can be used to sprinkle over other desserts.) Finish with a drizzle of syrup around the rhubarb and serve the rest separately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F On a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, roast rhubarb for 20 minutes or until it softens and most of the moisture evaporates; set aside.
• Reduce oven temperature to 300°F Butter 3/4 cup heatproof custard cups or ramekins; place them in a 13x9 inch baking dish.
