Broiled Peach Brulee Recipes

PEACH BRULEE

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler.
• Arrange peach halves, cut-side up in a shallow baking dish. In a small dish, stir together the brown sugar, cinnamon, and chopped pecans. Sprinkle the mixture over the peaches.
• Broil 3 inches from heat for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the topping is browned. Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

BROILED PEACHES

Steps:

• Sprinkle peach halves with sugar. Place under broiler and broil about 5 to 7 minutes until sugar is caramelized.

PEACH CREME BRULEE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat the cream in a sauce pan. Stir occasionally to keep skin from forming. Just before it is boiling, remove from heat and add vanilla.
• Meanwhile, cream egg yolks and sugar in a bowl. Try not to incorporate any air into the mix. I find that a fork works well for this small amount -- a whisk is too big.
• SLOWLY drizzle cream into eggs, continuing to mix with the fork. If you pour too quickly you will cook the egg. Again, try not to incorporate any air as you mix.
• Drain the peaches and place peach slices in the bottom of each ramekin. Then pour the custard on top of the peaches. You want to have enough custard that the peaches are completely covered. Narrower, taller ramekins work better than wider, shorter ones.
• Place ramekins in a baking tray or roasting pan, then pour water into the pan (don't splash into the custard) so that it comes halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Carefully place in the oven (don't splash into the custard) and bake about 30 minutes. Custard is done when it is set but still jiggles.
• Remove from the oven, and remove from the water bath. Allow to cool completely. Then cover with plastic wrap and chill for a couple hours in the fridge. You can store like this for several days if you like.
• Just before serving, sprinkle a thin layer of brown sugar on top of each custard and use a kitchen torch (or your oven's broiler) to melt and caramelize the sugar. Try not to burn it. If you are using the broiler, be careful, it burns very quickly. Don't take your eyes off of it!

GRILLED PORK AND PEACH SALAD

Steps:

• Combine olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, minced ginger, minced garlic, cayenne, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and white pepper in a pint-sized jar with a lid. Place the lid on the jar and shake the ingredients until well blended. Taste and adjust seasoning, if desired. Place container in the refrigerator until ready to use.
• Clean grates of an outdoor grill and preheat to medium-high, about 10 minutes, or as the manufacturer recommends.
• When grill is ready, grease grates using tongs to hold a paper towel saturated with vegetable oil.
• While the grill is heating, combine smoked paprika, granulated garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and black pepper in a small bowl.
• Sprinkle both sides of pork slices with dry spice mixture and allow to stand at room temperature until the grill is ready.
• Place seasoned pork slices on the grill and do not touch for about 2 minutes. Using tongs, flip the slices and continue to grill until grill marks form and the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees F (62 degrees C), an additional 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the grill and set aside.
• Place peach slices across the grate and grill until grill marks form, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Add to the reserved grilled pork slices.
• Make a bundle of kale leaves and slice across into 1/8-inch slices. Place sliced kale and carrots in a large mixing bowl. Add grilled pork slices and grilled peaches, and toss with desired amount of dressing (see note).
• Arrange salad on plates, and sprinkle 1/4 cup blueberries on each plate.

Steps:

• CUT the peaches in half and remove the pit. Place the peaches cut side down in a 9 x 13-inch baking pan.
• BROIL 4 inches from the heat source for about 3 minutes, until lightly charred. Remove the peaches from the oven and turn them over, cut side up.
• COMBINE the butter and sugar in a small bowl. Spread the mixture evenly over the peaches. Return to the oven and broil for 5 minutes, until bubbly and browned.
• SERVE immediately or at room temperature with your choice of toppings.

• Ice cream and sorbet flavors-butter pecan, raspberry sorbet, or peach on peach.
