Medium
  • In a medium-sized pot, combine the cream, milk, and vanilla. Place over medium heat and heat until it begins to boil, then remove from heat.
  • In a deep bowl with a whisk, mix the egg yolks with 2 tablespoons of sugar. Gradually add the cream mixture while continuing to whisk to ensure there are no lumps.
  • Return the mixture to the pot and place over medium heat. Stir constantly with a wooden spoon and cook until the sauce is thick enough to coat the spoon (4-5 minutes).
  • Strain the cream through a sieve and place it in a deep bowl, add the kirsch and incorporate with a whisk. Divide the cream into 4 different individual plates.
  • In a large skillet, heat the sugar with 1/4 cup of water over low heat until it turns into caramel (3 minutes). Add the peaches and cook for 5-7 minutes or until caramelized.
  • Serve each cream with 4 slices of peach.
