Pistachio Creme Brule

Ingredients:
milk, fluid, 1% fat, without added vitamin a and vitamin d
cream, fluid, heavy whipping
nuts, pistachio nuts, raw
sugars, granulated
egg substitute, powder
sugars, brown

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 250F (120C).
CUSTARD: heat the milk, cream, pistachio paste, and only 1/2 cup of the superfine sugar in a pot (large enough to fit the mixture) - whisk until well blended; then slowly bring to a boil.
Meanwhile, in a bowl, lightly whisk the egg yolks with the remaining superfine sugar.
As soon as the milk mixture comes to a boil, gradually pour it onto the egg mixture (in the bowl); while whisking at the same time.
After that is done, ladle the custard into your (6in) gratin dishes and place on a baking sheet.
Cook in the oven for 30 minutes, or just until the custard is set (firm).
Transfer the gratin dishes to a wire rack or countertop and allow them to get cold (then chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
*NOTE: When ready to serve sprinkle the raw brown sugar on top of the custards and caramelize with a blowtorch; or under a very hot oven broiler to make a thin, pale brown topping.
(SERVE IMMEDIATLEY AFTER).
