Creme Brulee Torch

A creme brulee torch lets chefs direct a precise jet of flame onto a custard (for creme brulee), gratin, meringue or any number of other items. With the increasing popularity of sous-vide or "vacuum cooking," many chefs use a creme brulee torch for browning the food before serving.



Here's what to look for in a creme brulee torch:

Naturally, you want a creme brulee torch to have child-proof safety lock to prevent accidents, but it shouldn't be overly challenging for you to light.

You want to be able to lock the creme brulee torch's flame in the "on" position so that you don't have to hold the valve open while you use it.

Lets you select the flame's intensity depending on the job. Use a lower setting for creme brulee and a higher one for browning meat.

So you don't run out of fuel while you're in the middle of caramelizing your creme brulees.
