Crème brûlée with gorgonzola & rosemary
Made from gorgonzola that is melted in milk infused with rosemary.This mixture (with egg yolk) is cooled down again with a crispy layer of caramelized cane sugar on top. On this, we serve pears that have been blanched in Chandon with a bit of vanilla.
Sommelier's tip: Serve a Prosecco Spumante with this dish. It complements the crème brûlée beautifully and makes for a fantastic ending to a gastronomic dinner.
