</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Here are the instructions:</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">2 cups heavy cream 480 ml</span><br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"> ½ stalk fresh lavender or</span><br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"> 3 T dried cooking lavender 45 ml</span><br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"> 6 egg yolks</span><br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"> ¼ cup honey 60 ml</span><br style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"> ¼ cup granulated sugar 50 g </span></span><br />
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> Serves 4-6 </span></div><div id="method" style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> Method </span></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> Preheat oven to 275º F (135º C). </span></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> In a small saucepan bring the cream to a boil, but don’t let it boil over. Remove it from the heat, add the lavender and infuse for 1 hour at room temperature. Using a fine sieve or cheesecloth, strain the mixture and return it to the same saucepan. Heat to a simmer and then remove from the heat immediately. Stir in the honey until dissolved. </span></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> In a medium-size mixing bowl, whisk the yolks until they are combined. Continue to whisk while slowly adding a small amount of the warm lavender cream. Add a little bit at a time so the yolks don't cook, until all the cream is mixed in. </span></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> Divide the liquid custard among 6-ounce (175 ml) ramekins. Place them in large baking dish. Fill the baking dish with hot water to halfway up the sides of the ramekins and put the baking dish in oven. Bake for 40 minutes and then check every 5 minutes. When fully baked the brûlées will be almost firm but will jiggle just slightly when shaken. Remove the ramekins from the water bath, let them cool and then refrigerate for at least 2 hours. </span></div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"> To prepare for serving, sprinkle each dessert with 1 tablespoon of sugar. Next, brown (brûlée, or broil) the sugar using a kitchen torch. Sugar can burn quickly, so use the torch carefully until the top is a deep golden brown. Serve immediately. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">This is a recipe that I will definitely try today!</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Enjoy!</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><i><b>Ido</b></i></span></span><br />
