THIS CONTAINS THE BEST CREME BRULEE I HAVE EVER EATEN. Rhubarb. *drools* It's blooming delicious.
Out of the bajillion recipes there are, I've only made a handful. I read cookbooks like other people read magazines. Maybe. But, there's wide variety of things. I'd make more, but a) I'm lazy b) I'm poor. I don't have the requisite pans and such to make certain items. I'd love the chance to make a large portion of the items, but then who would eat them? Not everyone's gung ho about quinoa and farro and spinach. The desserts are more my style, the cherry pie rocks, the lemon swirl cheesecake is magnificent. The aforementioned rhubarb creme brulee kicks the pants off of everything. That creme brulee was the beginning of my summer of custard (custards are delightful and one of my favorite things). One of these days I'll pretend to be Julie Powell and cook through it for a year without later cheating on my husband and that sort of thing.
