  2. In a bowl, whisk 3 yolks.
  3. Mix 1/3 of the hot liquid with the yolks, whisking. This warms the yolks.
  4. Now whisk the yolk mixture back into the hot liquid OFF THE FLAME.
  5. Let cool. When cool, add flavoring: 1/4 cup dark rum 2 ripe Haas avocadoes, pureed juice and zest of one lime.

  • Balsamic vinegar: Add 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar (nutty and vanilla like, but slightly tangier. No one will even guess)
  • Cognac: Add 1/3 cup cognac
  • Passionfruit: Add 1/4 cup passionfruit puree.
