Ini kali pertama aku bikin caramel pots, mirip flan tapi lebih cair . Dan rasanya ternyata enyaaaak…. nyesel deh cuma bikin ½ resep . Meskipun sedikit pahit (karena gulanya sedikit gosong) tapi over all tantangan sekarang ini punya rasa yang menurutku unik banget.
Waktu disajikan ternyata enak juga ditambah almond panggang.

Minted Shortbread Sticks
100g icing sugar
200g flour
100g cornflour
250g unsalted butter, softened (I use : 230 g butter, 20 g margarine)
1 vanilla pod, seeds removed and reserved ( my version : 1/2 tsp vanila powder)
1 sprig mint, chopped (my version: 1/4 tsp mint essence)
Preheat the oven to 150C. Line a baking tray with baking paper.
Combine the icing sugar, flours, butter, vanilla seeds and mint in a bowl and mix well.
Roll out to about 1cm thick. Cut into 2 x 8 cm fingers. Place on the prepared tray and bake for 20-25 minutes, until lightly golden.
Cool and store in an airtight container until required. Makes about 30.
Caramel Pots
125g caster sugar
2 Tbs water
125ml milk
250ml cream
3 egg yolks
Whisk the sugar into the water in a saucepan. Heat carefully and cook to a golden caramel. Combine milk and cream in a separate saucepan and warm-do not boil. Whisk the milk into the caramel. Cool slightly.
Pour into four ramekins. Bake in a water bath at 160C for 30 minutes or until set. Remove the ramekin, cool then chill. Serves 4.

* Penyajian diserahkan kepada selera masing-masing anggota, misalnya dengan menambahkan fruit puree, buah2an segar, dsb, tergantung dengan daya imajinasinya..
* Silakan berimprovisasi dengan bentuk shortbread, seperti spiral, curve, dibentuk beraneka rupa.
* Jika daun mint dan vanilla pod susah didapat, silakan menggunakan bahan pengganti, misalnya essence, flavouring, atau paste.
