Steps:

  • For Semifreddo:
  • Line 8-inch square pan with plastic. Whip 3/4 cup cream to soft peaks in medium bowl. Mix ice cream, hazelnuts, liqueur, chocolate and orange peel in large bowl just until blended. Gently fold in whipped cream. Transfer mixture to prepared pan; smooth top. Cover and freeze until firm, at least 4 hours. (Can be prepared 4 days ahead. Keep frozen.)
  • For Sauce:
  • Bring cream, liqueur and salt to boil in heavy small saucepan. Remove from heat and add chocolate. Let stand 3 minutes. Whisk until chocolate is melted and sauce is smooth. Whisk in corn syrup. (Can be prepared 3 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
  • For Pears:
  • Stir first 4 ingredients in heavy medium saucepan over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Bring to boil. Reduce heat, add pears and simmer until pears are just tender, about 20 minutes. Remove pears from poaching liquid. Cool pears and syrup separately. Return pears to syrup and refrigerate until cold. (Can be prepared 8 hours ahead.)
  • Stir chocolate sauce over low heat until warm. Cut semifreddo into 4 squares. Place 1 semifreddo piece in each of 4 bowls. Remove pears from syrup with slotted spoon. Place pears atop semifreddo. Spoon chocolate sauce over pears to coat, letting extra sauce drizzle onto semifreddo and plate. Sprinkle with nuts. Garnish with orange slices and serve.

3/4 cup chilled whipping cream
1 pint vanilla ice cream, slightly softened
1/2 cup chopped husked toasted hazelnuts
3 tablespoons Frangelico or other nut liqueur
1 ounce bittersweet (not unsweetened) or semisweet chocolate, finely grated
1/2 teaspoon grated orange peel
Sauce
1/4 cup whipping cream
1/4 cup Frangelico liqueur
Pinch of salt

4 orange slices

POACHED PEARS BELLE HELENE

They say Auguste Escoffier created this dish in honor of the opera, La Belle Helene, but we chefs know the real reason. How else are you going to use up bruised pears in such a delicious and beautiful way?

Poached Pears Belle Helene image

Steps:

  • Place water in a heavy pot. Stir in zest and juice of 1 lemon. Place pears in pot. Split the vanilla bean lengthwise and scrape out the seeds. Add the seeds and split pods to the poaching liquid. Pour in sugar.
  • Bring pot to a simmer over medium-high heat; stir gently to dissolve sugar with minimal jostling of the pears. Reduce heat so pears continue cooking over a steady, gentle simmer. Pears need to stay submerged, so place a small plate over them in the pot to keep them under the liquid. Simmer until pears are just tender, 20 to 25 minutes. (Remove plate to test the pears for doneness.) Remove pot from heat and let pears cool to room temperature in the poaching liquid.
  • Transfer pears and vanilla beans to a storage container and cover with some of the poaching liquid. Cover and refrigerate until pears are thoroughly chilled, several hours or overnight. Reserve all of the poaching liquid (see footnote).
  • Heat hot fudge sauce in a saucepan over medium heat until warm. Dip base of pear into the chocolate and spoon chocolate along the sides except for the top inch or so of the pear.
  • Place dipped pears in individual serving bowls with another generous spoonful of syrup and a small scoop of vanilla ice cream.

20 FRESH STRAWBERRY COCKTAILS - INSANELY GOOD

From insanelygoodrecipes.com
5/5 (1)
Published Oct 27, 2021
Category Beverages, Recipe Roundup
  • Strawberry Gin Smash. A ‘smash’ is probably one of the most flexible drinks around. Why? Because there are no rules on how to make one. Essentially, a smash is just a type of cocktail that contains ice and booze.
  • Strawberry Mojitos with Fresh Strawberries. Mojitos are super popular right now, and you find them all over in many different flavors. But one thing must remain the same in every place, and that’s the mint.
  • Texas Roadhouse Strawberry Margarita Recipe. I’ve always been a margarita lover, and I’ll happily take one with or without fruit. But when the sun is shining, and I’m relaxing by the pool, there’s nothing better than a cool glass of frozen strawberry goodness.
  • Easy Strawberry Daiquiri. Where margaritas are made using tequila, ice, and sweetened with triple sec, daiquiris are made with plenty of white rum, ice, and simple syrup.
  • Vodka Strawberry Cocktails. Cheap vodka has a pretty severe taste, but when you opt for something a little more pricey, you’ll find it can be smooth and rather tasty in the right drink.
  • Strawberry Tom Collins. The classic Tom Collins is a clean blend of gin, simple syrup, lemon, and club soda. It’s very floral and zesty, so if you’re into sweeter drinks, it might not be for you.
  • Fresh Strawberry Vodka Martini Recipe. Also known as a kangaroo cocktail (yes, really), the vodka martini is a variation of the classic, and it uses vodka and vermouth.
  • Strawberry Tequila Sunrise. I always loved the bright, vibrant colors and fruity flavors of tequila sunrises, plus I’ve always been a tequila lover. Of course, the classic recipe is made using orange juice and grenadine, which sinks to the bottom to create that sunrise effect.
  • Strawberry Basil Gin Cocktail. Basil is part of the mint family, with a slightly floral yet spicy-sweet finish. It’s the summer herb, and it’s not just good in salads or on pizza.
  • Strawberry Bellini. I’ve been to my fair share of bottomless mimosa/bellini brunch dates, and I’ve found that most fruits pair well with a bit of bubbly.
