Caneles de Bordeaux
(Source: Bruno Albouze and Niko Triantafillou from Saveur)
500 ml whole milk
45 grams unsalted butter
1 vanilla bean, scrape the seeds
80 grams egg yolks
120 grams all purpose flour
30 grams corn starch
225 grams granulated sugar
20 ml dark rum
20 ml Grand Marnier
Bring milk, vanilla bean seeds, and butter to 185 Fahrenheit
over low/medium heat (I even added my vanilla pods into this mixture). In a separate
bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and slowly add in the hot milk mixture.
Whisk until thoroughly combined. In a separate bowl, combine flour, corn
starch, and sugar. Slowly pour the milk mixture into the bowl with the flour.
Whisk until thoroughly combined. Mix in the dark rum and Grand Marnier. Let
this mixture rest in the refrigerator for at least 12 hours (I let mine rest
for 24 hours because I read online that it’s better to have the mixture rest undisturbed
longer). Preheat the oven to 450 degrees and coat the molds lightly with
nonstick baking spray. Retrieve the batter from the fridge and stir gently with
a rubber spatula to redistribute any flour and vanilla seeds that have settled
to the bottom. Remove the vanilla pods and discard. Pour 71 grams of batter
into each canele mold. Transfer to the oven and immediately turn the oven
temperature down to 425F. Bake for 15 minutes, then lower the temperature down
to 350F and continue baking for 1 hour (Nikko's recipe indicates that the caneles should be baked for 1 hour 50 minutes but I only baked them for 1 hour). Remove the pan from the oven and let
the caneles cool int heir molds for 10 minutes before unmolding unto cooler rack
