Steps

  1. 1

    1. Combine heavy cream, milk, and the tea bag in a small saucepan. Heat over medium-low heat until it just begins to simmer, then remove from heat and let steep for 10-15 minutes. Remove the tea bag, squeezing out any excess liquid.

  2. 2

    2. In a bowl, whisk egg yolks, granulated sugar (for custard), and a pinch of salt until light yellow and slightly thickened.

  3. 3

    3. Slowly pour the warm tea-infused cream mixture into the egg mixture while continuously whisking to temper the eggs.

  4. 4

    4. Strain the custard mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a ramekin to ensure a smooth texture.

  5. 5

    5. Place the ramekin in a baking dish and add hot water to the baking dish, coming halfway up the sides of the ramekin. Bake in a preheated oven at 150°C (300°F) for 30-35 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center still slightly jiggles.

  6. 6

    6. Carefully remove the ramekin from the water bath and let it cool to room temperature. Then, cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, until thoroughly chilled and set.

  7. 7

    7. Just before serving, sprinkle the remaining granulated sugar (for torching) evenly over the chilled custard. Use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar until it forms a hard, golden-brown crust. Let it cool for a minute or two before serving.
