Hi! Thanks. It's just a word my friend made up, and I put a stick on the end. :-D Lots of people do like how it's unique.

That's right. They usually don't allow those things in dorms......unless he sneaks them.

Great idea that I will try. It gets rid of the hubbies for awhile.

It was my humble opinion when Sheniqua44 first posed the question that perhaps she doesn't have a working oven or broiler. Her determination to serve creme brule is certainly to be admired and encouraged.

Thanks Moopstick for being the voice of reason! Please do not try using cooking spray and a lighter as a substitute for a butane torch! Follow the instructions for broiling from this recipe for Easy Banana Creme Brulee.

Sounds dangerous.

Try putting the oven on broil, then put the custard up really close to the oven coils. That should work.

What about using one of those extra-long matches instead of a lighter? I bet that would work.

My husband is retired so when I need to torch something, I just give him a magnifying glass and send him to the nearest window. It's time-consuming but it's not like he has anything else to do anyway.

In my home, the gas jets in the fireplace work nicely when I need to brule.

Always the wet blanket.

That's a great idea, Lil Stephanee. I use my daughter Culleen's EZ Bake oven for stuff like this all the time!!
