A classic among French desserts, the origin of crème brûlée dates back to the Middle Ages with the import of cream into Catalonia by the Arab-Andalusian people. Later, in 1691, Catalan cream captivated the palate of the famous François Massialot, who reinterpreted it. For a little history, the idea is said to have emerged in the mind of this pastry chef after Philippe d'Orléans complained that his cream was cold. A hot iron was placed on top of the sugar cream to caramelize it.

Let cool.

Distribute 6 tablespoons of brown sugar evenly over the ramekins in a thin layer inside the Thermomix bowl.

Caramelize the surface of the cream with a kitchen torch. Do not caramelize under the grill or salamander, as the caramelization time would cause a second cooking of the cream.

Serve immediately.
