A random tidbit of info....

I remember that, about a month ago, someone on my friends list had attempted to make creme brulee, and ended up with something that was almost exactly like creme brulee except for not setting up. (I even remember the detail that their partner reassured them that it tasted good despite this.)

Anyhow, I just noticed this post, which has some useful comments about how to make that not happen. And I'd simply email it to the person in question, except that unfortunately I can't remember who they are. Sigh.
