Sea Salt Caramel Budino with Pacific Blue® Kosher Flake Sea Salt

Ingredients

  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 2 large egg yolks
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • Pacific Blue® Kosher Flake Sea Salt for topping

Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the granulated sugar and water. Cook without stirring until the sugar dissolves and the mixture turns a deep amber color. This will take about 8–10 minutes.
  2. Remove the saucepan from heat and carefully whisk in the heavy cream and whole milk. The mixture will bubble vigorously—be cautious! Return to low heat and stir until smooth.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and vanilla extract. Gradually pour the warm caramel mixture into the egg yolks, whisking constantly to temper the eggs.
  4. Once combined, pour the mixture back into the saucepan and cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly until it thickens slightly and coats the back of a spoon, about 5-7 minutes.
  5. Remove from heat and stir in sea salt. Strain the mixture through a fine sieve into a measuring cup or bowl to remove any cooked egg bits.
  6. Divide the budino mixture into small serving dishes or jars. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until set, about 4 hours or overnight.
  7. Before serving, sprinkle a small pinch of Pacific Blue® Kosher Flake Sea Salt on top to enhance the flavors. Enjoy this wonderfully rich and creamy budino as a delectable ending to any meal.

Indulging in the Sea Salt Caramel Budino is an experience that will leave your taste buds craving more. The contrasting flavors and smooth texture make it a delightful dessert for any occasion.
