Today is National Crème Brûlée Day.
Crème brûlée is also known as burnt cream, crema Catalana, and Trinity crème. Like every classic dessert, crème brûlée has a history as rich as its flavor. However, it's unclear if France, Spain, or England get the credit for the "first" creator. Each country documented a burned-sugar dessert dating back to the 15th century. However, the first printed version of crème brûlée is from French cookbook Le Cuisinier Royal et Bourgeois published in 1691 by Francois Massialot.
