Novel Realization: Vanilla comes from an orchid. Never knew until recently and now I know why vanilla yogurt packaging almost always has a vanilla bean and little orchid on it
Guess i never uploaded this Wednesday. I was sick pretty bad between woman pains causing a migraine to actual sickness from dehydration, build up of snot in the throat and a sensitivity to temperature. also ate an edible to see if it would relieve the pain. it did not.
I have no real excuse for this other then I’ve really ben in the mood to draw Emotes lately. and of course I use @crimson-chains Boi’s Merlot, Moscato and Vanilla Bean in my shenanigans …..
1. Preheat oven to 290 degrees F. 2. Add milk, cream, sugar, vanilla beans + pod to a medium saucepan. Heat on medium just to a simmer, stirring occasionally. 3. Add lavender, turn off heat, and cover. Allow to sit and steep for at least 15 minutes. 4. Strain liquid with a fine mesh sieve. 5. Place egg whites in a large bowl and temper; add one ladle of the cream base and wisk. Add another ladle, and wisk again. Then add the rest, wisk lightly to combine. 6. Place ramekins in a high rimmed roasting pan, pour the cream base to fill each. 7. Add pan carefully to the oven. Once level, pour hot water into the base of the pan, reaching about 1/3 of the way up the ramekins. Bake for 1 hour, turning half way through. 8. Place ramekins in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to set. 9. When ready to serve. Let sit in hot water for a moment, use a knife to loosen all around, and turn over onto a plate. Serve just like this, with macerated strawberries and balsamic glaze, a drizzle of honey or runny zabaglione.
