Fancy a sweet treat? Our Rosemary Crème Brûlée with Rhubarb Compote is the perfect indulgence 😍 Our talented chefs have shared our recipe below if you’d like to try this at home 🙌
Ingredients
For the Crème Brûlée (Rosemary Infused)
* 500ml double cream
* 1 vanilla pod (or 1 tsp vanilla paste)
* 1 small sprig fresh rosemary
* 5 egg yolks
* 100g caster sugar (plus extra for topping)
For the Rhubarb Compote
- 250g rhubarb, cut into 2–3 cm pieces
- 60g caster sugar
- 1–2 tbsp water
- 1 small sprig rosemary
Method
1. Rhubarb & Rosemary Compote
- Place rhubarb, sugar, water, and rosemary into a saucepan
- Cook gently for 8–10 minutes until softened but still slightly chunky
- Cool completely and refrigerate
2. Rosemary Infused Cream
- Preheat oven to 150°C (fan 140°C)
- In a saucepan, combine cream, vanilla (seeds + pod), and rosemary sprig
- Heat gently until just below boiling, then remove from heat
- Let infuse for 10–15 minutes, then remove rosemary and vanilla pod
3. Make the Custard
- Whisk egg yolks and sugar until pale
- Slowly pour the warm infused cream into the yolks, stirring gently
- Strain into a jug to ensure a smooth texture
4. Bake
- Pour into ramekins
- Place in a deep tray and add hot water halfway up (bain-marie)
- Bake for 30–35 minutes until just set with a slight wobble
- Cool, then chill overnight
5. Assemble & Finish
- Sprinkle caster sugar evenly on top
- Caramelise with a blowtorch until golden and crisp
- Add a layer of rhubarb compote
Chef’s Tips
- Use rosemary lightly—too much can overpower the dessert
- A small fresh rosemary tip makes a nice garnish but keep it subtle
