Recipe View 5 mins Before serving, sprinkle 1 tablespoon sugar over each custard. Use a kitchen torch or oven broiler to brown top, 2 to 3 minutes. (5 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, infuse the heavy cream with citrus zest or a vanilla bean while heating.
Ensure the water bath reaches halfway up the ramekins to promote even cooking and prevent the custard from curdling.
If using a broiler, watch carefully to prevent burning the sugar topping.
