Blackcurrant and Miso Clafoutis

The miso paste adds a lowkey saltiness to this clafoutis, bringing out the flavor of vanilla and enriching the cream. Serve lukewarm with whipped cream.

Ingredients

8 tablespoons white sugar, divided

• 4 tablespoons light brown sugar

• 2 large eggs, at room temperature

• 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

• 1 teaspoon miso paste

• 6 tablespoons all-purpose flour

• 7 tablespoons heavy whipping cream or double cream

• 2/3 cup milk

• 1 tablespoon butter, for greasing

• 2 cups blackcurrants, removed from their vines

Directions

1. Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

2. Combine 7 tablespoons white sugar, soft light brown sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and miso paste in a bowl and whisk vigorously until eggs are foamy, 2 to 3 minutes.

3. Whisk in flour until smooth, then add milk and cream. Stir until thoroughly combined.

4. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a heavy ovenproof cast iron skillet. Use a piece of paper towel to spread the butter around the base and sides of the skillet. Sprinkle all over with remaining 1 tablespoon sugar to leave a thin, glittering crust around the skillet.

5. Tip blackcurrants into the prepared dish and arrange evenly. Pour batter carefully on top.

6. Bake in the preheated oven until clafoutis is set around the sides, but still jiggles in the center, about 30 minutes. Leave to cool until lukewarm before serving.
