Remarks
For the bread, I recommend a rustic type, such as sourdough or seeded.

If you don't have smoked cheese, a normal cheese will do just fine (Comté, Cheddar...).

If you don't have time to make scrambled eggs, a small omelette will work instead.
Keeping
Should be eaten right away.

Crème brulée
Crème brulée
Crème brûlée (burned cream) is quite easy to prepare: it's a simple egg-cream dessert. The only difficulty is in making the delicious crunchy caramel layer on top. The perfect crème brulée (for me) is a cold and soft cream, with on top a nice hot caramel crust. This is a completely new version...

Classic italian recipe (the name means "pull me up" or more poetically, "take me up to the sky"). It's similar to a charlotte in its structure: layers of flavoured biscuits between layers of smooth cream.
