I’m a pastry chef so obviously desserts are my favourite but with this machine my classic is a New York strip steak perfect medium with garlic thyme butter to finish.

Step 2
First add cream, salt, and vanilla into a pot and heat on medium just below boiling. Next heat a large heavy bottom pot on medium/high heat. Do a dry caramel by adding small amounts of sugar stirring until dissolved before the next addition. Do this step until all the sugar is added and becomes a light amber colour. Deglaze with hot cream/vanilla mixture also in additions ( it will foam up a lot) once everything is mixed and dissolved slowly temper into the egg yolks in a separate bowl. Pour mix into desired jars almost all the way full then seal and cook.
