inside stoneware. Pour water around ramekins so that water comes halfway
up the sides of the ramekins. Remove ramekins and prepare custard.
2. Whisk the egg yolks briefly, set aside. Place the cream, vanilla bean and
sugar in a small saucepan set over medium heat. Stir until mixture begins
to boil. Remove from heat and let cool, allowing vanilla bean to steep in the
cream. When cool, remove bean, scraping out the seeds into the mixture.
Very slowly, pour into the egg yolks, whisking well. Strain the mixture
through a fine sieve.
3. Pour the mixture into the ramekins and place in stoneware. Cover; cook on
High for 1-2 hours, or until custard is set but centers are still soft and jiggly.
Carefully remove ramekins from stoneware, let cool, and refrigerate until
ready to serve.
4. Spread tops of each custard generously with raw sugar and brûlée with a
torch, gradually melting and browning the sugar in quick small, circles.
