How to cook deliciously - Chocolate Pots De Crème
1. Stage
In a medium saucepan, heat the cream, yolks, sugar, and salt over medium heat. Do not let it come to a boil. Continuously stir the cream mixture until it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 5 minutes.
2. Stage
Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the vanilla. Add the chopped chocolate and set aside for about 3 minutes.
3. Stage
Using a small whisk, begin stirring in the center of the pot until the mixture is homogeneous. (If you accidentally overheated the mixture and created lumps, you can remove the lumps by straining the mixture into a bowl.)
4. Stage
Transfer the mixture to ramekins and refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
5. Stage
15-30 minutes before serving, let the pots de creme sit at room temperature. Serve with chocolate shavings and fresh whipped cream if desired.
