- Claire Saffitz Makes Crème Brûlée & Crème Caramel | Dessert Person
This is a choose-your-own-ending dessert. Made with the same base using the same cooking method, crème brûlée and crème caramel are like funhouse-mirror images of one another. Both are rich, delicate, vanilla-scented custards, but the former is topped with a hard, crackly caramel lid, while the latter is coated in a liquid caramel sauce that forms during baking (the caramel actually starts on the bottom, but becomes the top when inverted, like a flan).

Crème brûlée or Crème Caramel, which will you make this weekend?
Yes❤
Both ❤❤❤
Both!❤️
Warm mixture also reduces bubbles in the final product, so you get the silky texture.
Probably the crème caramel. And I am so excited cause I can use my vanilla paste from Heilala vanilla I just got!!!
the intro genuinely scared me i woke up two mins ago and was ready for some comforting claire content HAHAAAA
Caught me so off guard. I’m cracking up.
Ha ha me too. I woke up to my Claire notification and literally BOOM 😂❤
🤣🤣🤣
Me too! I almost shouted in my hotel room upon watching the intro. 🤣🤣🤣
It's like Michael Bay directed an episode of Dessert Person.
This video has so much character: the chaos around the torch not functioning, Claire's husband featuring in the video, the drinks and boardgame, and finally Claire asking if they ordered pizza. The latter may seem uncharacteristic for a cook, but also so fitting for the stressful day. I'm not saying every video should be like this, but once in a while it is so cool to see these things :)
I love the energy of the orange kitty overseeing the chaos
Yes it actually made the video even more relatable ❤️
These hijinks and the little animated faces on her appliances make her videos the gold that they are!
You know, I had the same problem with a torch going out while I was doing a brulet. And I'm pretty sure it was a Claire Saffitz recipe that I was doing!
Seriously, the chaos gives a realism that makes me think that I can try -- and succeed -- these recipes.
I personally find it so organic when cooking shows/videos show the chaos that actually happens while cooking. Things don't always go as they should when you cook; things get burnt, ingredients/tools go missing, overcooking/overbaking happens... Old cooking shows with recipes that came out perfectly from beginning to end were boring, they obviously had to record more than one take in more than one occasion, and yet we never got to watch any of that to make us feel more related and make the cooking experience for chefs seem a little more mundane. I think that's maybe why some people are afraid of cooking, we've grown up thinking that if it doesn't come out cookbook perfect you're a terrible cook and shouldn't even try again, when it's the complete opposite, practice makes perfect and you actually learn with every mistake 😊
Whenever i come home to my dads for dinner, after we finish, he immediately asks me excitedly, “would you like…a crème brûlée??” And before I say yes he goes to the fridge and pulls out some packs of it from Costco. They’re pretty dang good.
Now when he comes to my house, I’m gonna use this recipe and ask him the same thing, but pull out these babies, he’s been so supportive of me over the past few months, and I’ll use this as a way to say thanks!
This is so incredibly wholesome 🥰
Please update in comments when you do this. I need to know his reaction
Thats so cute 🥰🥰
@@rainqueen3385 I need an update too, this is so sweet
My heart omg 💗
Oh my god, this is the best episode- the explosive intro, Claire's husband and his hijinks, Claire freaking out with a cat in the background, drinking, a board game, and then the final product! I've never laughed so hard!
I love this new chapter in Claires life!! So happy for her. This suits her.
my favorite thing about claire is how good of a teacher she is. she not only states every step but also gives the reason behind it. i enjoy it as an educator and baker!
My partner is going to be so happy when I make this for him. Thanks for the recipe, Claire- can't wait for the new book!
I love that when things go wrong or require some experimentation you leave it in the video. It reminds me of my favorite parts of Gourmet Makes. It makes the things you're doing feel more accessible and it's just fun to watch. Would love to check in with the chickens again soon!!
I make creme brulee for mom every year on her birthday. Sometimes i switch up the flavors. This year it was chai flavored 🥰
Creme caramel is really popular in Brazil, we call it “pudim” and it is usually a Sunday desert for family reunions, we love it. Thanks for the video and kisses from Brazil ❤
Yeah, standard propane torches will sputter out when over inclined/"upside down" because the liquid propane works its way through the torch and extinguishes the flame.
You could have gotten a flexible hose adapter for it and you'd be able to use the tank "as is". But the new kitchen torch is always a good option too =D
I don't bake, don't even own a whisk, but I adore watching these videos, they are so calming. I just had surgery and am just binging Claire
In Latin countries we call it Flan. We make all different flavors. With coconut milk, pumpkin, chocolate and Flan and cake together.I love Flan more.I never use Half and Half so I will try this to see if it gets creamy.Remember if you over cook the caramel too much and it gets too dark it gets bitter.Thanks for the video.
Claire and her husband are so wholesome. They are every couple.
Wife: OMG! You’re gonna kill us all. 😬
Husband: What? This is perfectly normal. It’s fine
Wife: 😳
It is normal to use a torch like that if you've had a lot of shop experience. It is frowned upon by school teachers because teenagers are less than careful. Once you've practiced it's a cinch.
He's just being a boy
@@mattymattffs What an archaic view of the world (and people). I bet you’re one of those crying over trans people in sports and other made-up nothingburger non-issue? 🙄🤦🏼♂️
I love it when something I'm cooking/baking just tastes so good after I've had problems making it. Love that relief.
Love that we got to see Harris, and the last thing I expected to see in a Claire Saffitz video was Ticket to Ride!
This video could not have dropped at a better time, my wife's birthday is next week and crème brûlée is her favorite dessert; I planned on making it for her this weekend and now I have just the recipe to follow! Thanks, Claire!
Helpful tip: For people who want a non-flame option, some electric heat guns work well for creme brûlée. Various all-electric kitchens use them. You never need to worry about running out of gas or getting a massive flame jet by accident. You do need to manage the cable so you don't dunk it in your other custards or accidentally knock things off the counter, and in some kitchens, the outlets may not be conveniently located for it, but if you're used to electric hand mixers or immersion blenders you should be fine.
Crème Brûlée is my absolute favorite dessert, for sure. Thanks for showing how to make it!
I greatly enjoyed the little pop punk early 2000's sitcom moment with Claire and Harris guest-starring the cat!
We made crème brûlée in class over the summer. I’m in culinary school. So glad you said to add salt into the dairy for the custard. Our instructor’s recipe did not include it and I thought it was way too sweet.
This is my mum's favourite dessert so I'm so excited to try and make it for her. 😍.
This is literally me and my friends in the kitchen. We get 90% of the way, something goes wrong, we need a break, play a game, drink, come back to the 10%, but we def are ordering some takeout to pair with the thing we made!
I love that you show us all of the bumps and mishaps along the way! It's so encouraging to me, as a very UNproffessional, to see that things don't always go smoothly, even for the professionals! Thank you!!
We are so excited for the new book!!!!
I started making the fruitcakes from Dessert Person this week in anticipation of christmas! Wish me luck, they are the heaviest cakes I’ve ever made
I've always liked "watery" flan, even though to most of my friends sounds unpleasant. Now I know it's called Creme Caramel!!! 🙌
i would trust you with my life. your dessert recipes never fail me. you’re the best claire
This is the funniest Claire Saffitz video EVER! Love it all.
I was so excited to receive my copy of What's for Dessert and it is exceeding my expectations! Made the creme caramel for a casual get together on Sunday. It was delicious and made me (and all my guests so happy). I will definitely be making again. Also looking forward to trying the recipe as creme brulee!
How are you in my head. I've been thinking about creme brulee and how it would be nice to see Claire make one on this show. Now it is here!
Thanks for all the great recipes. You make my own food channel a better one! 🧡
Thank you for the video! I’ve never made crème caramel but I am making it tomorrow as part of my cookery course at Ballymaloe cookery school (Ireland)…I just needed some reassurance I could do this…love all the cooking tutorials and recipes!
The part with Harris gave SUCH Jenna and Julien Virgo and Aries in the kitchen vibes and it was an absolute delight
Deodorant cans definitely relatable. Also a wonderful recipe covering all the worries I have while making a custard.❤
Hi Claire! I actually made creme brulee before, and i think it turned out ok even at the first try!! I dont have a torch, so for everyone interested- you can do that in the oven, if it has a heating element on top. Turn it on real hot, and the sugar will melt in a couple of minutes. Thanks for reminding me how much i love this dish!
I've done it under the grill - packed ice around the ramekins so the custard didn't split and put them under the grill for a couple of minutes.
My oven has a heating element on top but not hot enough and it just made the cutard split 😢 I actually found that eating the custard itself is fine, since I don't have the tool to melt sugar
My wife just asked me to make creme brulee and here's the video! Perfect timing Claire, can't wait to try this.
There is no other dessert I love more than custard! Thanks!
The torch section had me in stitches. It was like between hubby and I. Lol I loved it! And adore you!!!
That explosion 😂 I can't deal!
Lovely demonstration of classic techniques for a classic dessert. And my favorite uncle was named Harris. I’ve never known anyone else with that name. Thank you for all of this.
My favorite dessert. I made your Brûlée pumpkin pie last year. It was a hit.
i cant bake or anything but i made creme brulee for the first time a couple years ago and it was bomb, cant wait to try claire's recipe!
i love watching your videos💓! i loooove your recipes i wanna make so many.🍮🥧🍪
so excited to see some savoury recipes as well!!
Omg omg omg my two favourite desserts all in one I’m so happy
Wonderful video. Thank you
I literally laughed out loud when Claire burst 💥 into flames 🔥! Great recipe…One of my favorites ❤
I LOVE creme caramel, when holidaying in france in '95 it was my go-to dessert just about everywhere we went, it's soooooogood!!! :D
The torch not working is because that kind isn't meant to be held upside down - the fuel in the tank is blocking the intake where the gas is supposed to be coming out. You have to hold those at a shallow angle. Look into torch lighters, those are perfect for creme brulee!
Claire + Ticket to Ride ... two of my favorite things! Great episode!
Creme brulee is my absolute favorite dessert! I've "made" it before from those premade ones you can get at the store where you only need to torch the sugar, and it was intersting to learn that you can do a second layer of sugar. That's why they were never quite right for me!
Omg the explosion at the begining had me on the floor. Love this recipe!!
Oh my god this recipe is a must 😍
I appreciate knowing the right way to make custard. I've been doing the shortcuts all my life. Not to go into detail, but my method involves a blender. 🙂 I've made as many as 14 creme caramels at a time for a dinner party. It is so cool to let each guest turn the custard over into a saucer and watch the caramel descend. 🙂
I def use blender too for the flan/creme caramel
Haha I loved this video!! Your hubby should definitely try and "help" more 😂😂
I’ve never tried crème brûlée before 😍 those look so delicious and not hard to make.
This video reminds me of the BA days when Claire would do Gourmet Makes and everything would go wrong, she would ask for help, mildly panic and then it all would turn out perfect.
i love flan so much!
excellent opening, I always appreciate the edits.
Good morning Claire thanks for amazing video ❤
You are such a good teacher! Every episode is better than the last! Btw, love your pyro husband! Brings back childhood memories! Hahaha
I didn't think I could love Claire any more, but when she said 'I love custard' I just swooned a little I think
(Also, blowtorch? Heck yeah! Julia would be delighted)
Claire, so good to see you laughing! I miss that. Happy holidays!
Custard is so comforting.
Love them both! My pick would be crèm caramel because of the nostalgia! My mom made the best ever and now she doesn't know how to do it any longer.
This video made me laugh so hard. I am so excited to make this recipe and I am extra extra excited for her new cookbook!!!
Looks delicious🤗 this episode was adorable. Such a cute couple❤ and lovely friends🙌
Nothing like a claire update during lunch time for me to get VERY hungry for dessert and have nothing in the fridge
I’ve been desperate for this!!!
Just joined Patreon~
thanks Christine, welcome to the community!
Amazon sells a tiny torch that is shaped closer to a gun and is easy to use, but doesn't come with the butane you will need! I used it for crème brulee cookies and it worked perfect :)
These videos are the reason I wish I could double-like things, like on Netflix 😍
Oh my gosh creme brûlée is my favorite!!!
Team both! The edited explosion at the beginning made me shriek with laughter 😂😂😂😂
I love this channel and I love Claire, she’s incredibly talented and it makes me so happy that she’s become super successful in her own right. The only thing I’d ask to change, is that you pop up metric measurements alongside the imperial, for us across the pond in the land of awful politics. Thanks a lot and keep up the awesome work!
I remember well my first crème brûlée and yeah it was in the 90s 1995 to be somewhat specific and it really rocked
Awesome ❤ One of my favorite desserts.
I was waiting for Erin from Food 51 to show up to help with the torch 😂
OMG!! That first explosion made me jump!! Added this to my make one day soon list!
The blow torch incident had so much gourmet bakes energy. Took me back.
The jump scare at the beginning 😭 I was so scared for Claire! Whoever put that in there 😑😑🤭
what a great episode :)!
Alternative title: Claire and Harris Play with Fire
You are so amazing inspiring unbelievable inspiring remarkable and so sweetest and make best desserts ❤❤
I love the chaotic energy when the husband takes over. Even the cat's like "oh boy I wanna see this" 🤣
The reason why that first torch keeps going out is because the liquid basically chokes out the oxygen required. I think? I had one of those models first. The Bernzomatic TS8000 Claire was looking up has a valve to prevent that issue when you invert the torch.
Hi Claire! Here in Venezuela Créme Caramel is called "quesillo", the onlt difference is that we pour some rum into the custard
Creme caramel is popular in the Philippines where it's called leche flan. But instead of baking, it's steamed, because very few people actually have ovens and bake here.
My favorites
My mom would make the Crème, and my dad was always delighted to use the heavy-duty workshop blowtorch to brûlée it. They were an unstoppable team.
I’ve never made crème brûlée, but we’re definitely baking one on the weekend with my husband using your recipe, we’re big fans of all of your desserts!❤️
oh my god i am so excited for this
Wow! I’m here early for what’s going to be an iconic video! FLAN!! Just in time for the holiday.
I think Claire's attitude towards each recipe she presents is kind of attitude I need in my life in general
MY FAVORITE ❤❤❤❤ dessert
I dont have a blow torch so creme caramel it is!! Can't wait for my book!!!
Nothing like a ticket to ride with friends to make my creme brulees exceptionally delicious~
The mmm of the verdict at the end always makes me laugh it's the best part of any Claire's videos
I am on a diet and crème brûlée is my absolute favorite. I feel like I just had one by watching this. Claire you are the best ♥️
The editing is hilarious i love it
