Prep Method 9

  1. 1.Make a dry caramel with the sugar. Add the espresso beans to coat and spread out onto a silicone baking mat or parchment paper to cool. Once cool, grind the caramel coated beans in a food processor until coarsely ground.
  2. 2.Bring the milk to a scald with the ground mixture and the vanilla bean. Set aside to steep for 15 minutes.
  3. 3.Strain the espresso milk through a fine-mesh strainer, then rescale to the original weight with additional milk.
  4. 4.Whip the cream to soft peaks and set aside.
  5. 5.Bloom the gelatin in cold water; the gelatin will absorb the majority of the water.
  6. 6.Make a very thick crème anglaise with the espresso milk, second weight of sugar, egg yolks, and salt by cooking it on low heat and stirring continuously.
  7. 7.Once cooked, remove from heat, add the bloomed and drained gelatin and whisk to dissolve.
  8. 8.Strain through a fine-mesh strainer into a mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Whip until cool, then add the extract.
  9. 9.Fold the whipped cream into the cooled espresso crème anglaise.
