Misc.

Hi Gay and Hi Kathy
Thank you so much for your help. I have now copied the Pumpkin Creme Brulee recipe from the site, and have also just got Rubin's Book of Tarts, which has other nice things in it too. Confusing that there appear to be two methods, but is that not the way with a lot of things. And obviously I have to try both methods, and see which we like best - which is easiest to do.

I have to admit that tonight we have just finished 4 ramekins of Creme Brulee - so I will not make it again this weekend, as there are 2 ramekins left in the fridge ----what piglets!! But I fully intend to try the tart version.
We are going on a course in France - maybe I will come back with a special recipe from there in my bag, and several pounds extra weight on my body!

I found a small salamander at Sur La Table and it works fine with the ramekins - one heats the 3 inch round end on the stove top (there is a longish handle) and then uses it to "burn" the brown sugar. I also just a day or so ago bought a mini blow torch on eBay - it works with small butane cylinders and it is still in the packet. So I will try that when it comes & my husband is not around - I don't want to become the household plumbing expert when a pipe breaks! Thanks both of you. Good weekend.
