Had a French-inspired dinner tonight to celebrate a special event. (I’m not allowed to announce it until the right people do so, but it’s a happy one.)

French tomato tart (recipe by David Lebovitz)

and crème brûlée (to inaugurate the ramekins and torch)

I made a calculation error in the crème brûlée and ended up with double the quantity of sugar in the custard. As a result, it didn’t quite set properly, and Souvik has flown away to the moon!
