The Best Desserts in the World 1. FRANCE: CRÈME BRÛLÉE: Also known as burnt cream or Trinity cream,[1] is a dessert consisting of a rich custard base topped with a texturally contrasting layer of hardened caramelized sugar. It is normally served slightly chilled; the heat from the caramelizing process tends to warm the custard producing a cool center. The custard base is traditionally flavored with vanilla, but can have a variety of other flavorings. Technique: Crème brûlée is usually served in individual ramekins. Discs of caramel may be prepared separately and put on top just before serving, or the caramel may be formed directly on top of the custard immediately before serving. To do this, sugar is sprinkled onto the custard, then caramelized under a salamander broiler or with a butane torch.[9] Two styles exist to make crème brûlée. The common format is to create a "hot" custard, traditionally by whisking egg yolks in a double boiler with sugar and incorporate the cream, with vanilla following once the custard is off the heat.[10] Likewise, this can be achieved by tempering the egg yolk/sugar mixture with hot cream, then adding vanilla at the end. There also exists a "cold" method, wherein the egg yolks and sugar are whisked together until the mixture reaches ribbon stage. Then, cold heavy cream is whisked into the yolk mixture followed by vanilla. After the custard is achieved, the mixture is dished into ramekins and the ramekins are placed into a bain-marie. Hot/boiling water is poured into the large pan holding the ramekins until it reaches halfway up the sides; the pan is then placed into an oven until the custard center is jiggly and the edges set. Pulling the crème brûlée out at this point ensures a creamy dessert. 2. AMERICA: APPLE PIE: La tarta de manzana es una tarta de fruta elaborada con una masa recubierta de manzana. Existen muchas variantes y la manzana puede ser troceada o en compota. Las manzanas pueden colocarse directamente encima de la masa o sobre una base de crema. Existen variantes en las que la masa envuelve toda la fruta o que se elaboran al revés colocando la masa sobre la fruta para darle luego la vuelta, como en la Tarte Tatin francesa. INGREDIENTES: Masa: Tartitas de manzana sobre masa de hojaldre y con base de crema. La masa de la tarta se elabora con harina de trigo, agua, mantequilla y a veces huevo. Puede ser una masa quebrada o una masa de hojaldre. Una vez amasada, se coloca la masa en el horno a mediana temperatura, y aquella debe tomar consistencia para que proporcione un buen soporte a la tarta. Algunas variantes

cerradas de la tarta hacen que la manzana se cueza en su interior, haciendo la masa de envoltorio que retiene los holas. Relleno Se considera a veces que las variedades de manzanas algo ácidas son más adecuadas, con la intención de que hagan contraste con los tonos dulces del azúcar. Las variedades más empleadas son Reineta, Golden y Granny Smith aunque cualquier variedad local sirve. Se suele utilizar manzanas frescas, y las manzanas envasadas o incluso deshidratadas suelen emplearse sólo cuando las frescas no están disponibles. Para que la tarta no resulte demasiado seca, se tapiza a veces la masa con una capa de crema sobre la que se colocan los gajos de manzana. Se han añadido pasas y algunas variantes australianas emplean crema en la parte superior. Extras Suele ser muy popular la inclusión de ciertas especias tales como la canela, la nuez moscada y el clavo de olor. En la mayoría de los casos la misión que cumple es la de apagar en la medida de lo posible la dulzura del azúcar y darle al sabor de la tarta un toque distintivo. Cabe decir que las recetas primigenias de esta tarta no llevaban azúcar, debido en parte a que en la Edad Media el azúcar de caña o de remolacha era considerado un lujo al alcance de muy pocos. Se recurría sin embargo a la miel. 3. ITALY: GELATO Is a frozen dessert popular in Italy. It is generally a mixture of custard, cream, and milk, without eggs. Gelato is made with a base of milk and sugar. It is generally lower in fat than other styles of ice cream.[3] Gelato typically contains less air and more flavoring than other kinds of frozen desserts, giving it a density and richness that distinguishes it from other ice creams.[4][5] The Italian law requires gelato to have a minimum of 3.5% butterfat.[6] Gelato can be served in any way that ice cream is, including cup, cone, sandwich, cake, pie, or on a stick. The traditional flavors of gelato consist of vanilla, chocolate, hazelnut, pistachio, cream (also known as custard), and Stracciatella (fior-di-latte gelato with chocolate chunks). [13]

The more modern flavors consist of fruity flavors such as raspberry, mango, and pineapple. 4. ALFAJORES, ARGENTINA 5. AMERICA: BROWNIES 6. CANNOLI, SICILY 7. CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES, UNITED STATES 8. DOUGHNUTS, UNITED STATES 9. FLAN, LATIN AMERICA 10. TIRAMISÚ, ITALY
