1 tbsp orange blossom water
1/4 cup superfine sugar (for topping)
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C).

5. Stir in the vanilla extract and orange blossom water.
6. Pour the mixture into ramekins and place them in a baking dish.
7. Fill the baking dish with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
8. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center still jiggles slightly.
9. Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
10. Sprinkle superfine sugar evenly over the top of each custard.
11. Use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar until golden brown. Allow to cool briefly before serving.
