Nesselrodesauce Recipes

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a nonreactive container or glass jar.
• Let flavors blend for at least 4 days or up to 2 weeks.

Steps:

• Dice glacéed and candied fruits into bits and mix into the Marsala.
• Wash the currants and sultanas and soak them in warm water; when it's time to use them drain them well and dry them thoroughly in a clean dish towel or paper towels.
• In a heavy bottomed saucepan, heat the milk slowly until it nears boiling (watch carefully or it will scorch).
• Separate the eggs and discard whites or save them for another recipe.
• Place the yolks in a bowl and add the sugar, beating vigorously until the mixture is light and frothy.
• Whisk hot milk into the egg/sugar mixture in the bowl, then return the contents of the bowl to the saucepan.
• Reduce heat and stir constantly until the custard thickens.
• Strain the custard through a sieve.
• Whisk the chestnut puree, Maraschino liqueur and the custard together well; add the candied fruits, currants and sultanas.
• Whip the cream until it is very stiff, and fold it carefully into the mixture.
• Pour it into a charlotte mold lined with cling wrap.
• Cover tightly with foil and freeze for 24 hours.

Steps:

• Place all ingredients in a saucepan.
• Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the pineapple is cooked through and the sauce is thick and syrupy (about 5- 10 minutes).
• Store sauce in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to a week (if it lasts that long).

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients in a mixing bowl. Let stand an hour or longer before using.

Steps:

• Put the milk in a heavy saucepan and bring to a simmer.
• Combine the gelatin and Cognac, kirsch or rum. Stir until softened.
• Combine the egg yolks and sugar in a heavy saucepan and beat until light and lemon-colored. Gradually add the hot milk, stirring vigorously with a wire whisk.
• Bring the mixture to a bare simmer, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. Do not let the sauce boil or it will curdle. Cook until the mixture has a custardlike consistency and coats the sides of the spoon. Add the gelatin mixture and stir until dissolved. Put the sauce through a fine sieve, pressing to extract all the liquid from any solid. Add the Nesselrode mix and let stand until thoroughly cooled.
• Beat the cream until stiff and fold it into the custard.
• Rub the bottom and sides of a 12-cup mold with a very thin coating of butter. Line the bottom and sides with the ladyfingers. To do this, separate the ''double'' ladyfingers. Arrange enough of them in a petal-like, symmetrical arrangement over the bottom, cutting them to fit. Remember to place them smooth surface down so that when the charlotte is unmolded, this surface will appear on top. Line the sides of the mold with ladyfingers, smooth surface against the side of the mold. Arrange the ladyfingers close together and trim each ladyfinger as necessary so that it fits neatly, top and bottom.
• Add the custard mixture and place in the refrigerator. Chill several hours or overnight, until the custard is set.
• When ready to serve, dip the mold in hot water and remove immediately. A damp, hot cloth should also be used on the mold to help loosen it. Unmold and serve.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, dissolve the gelatin in the rum and cold water; set aside to soften.
• Scald the cream and milk in a saucepan, taking care not to scorch.
• Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
• In the top of a double boiler, off the heat, whisk together the salt, 2 T of the sugar, and the egg yolks.
• In a steady stream, add the milk and cream to the mixture, stirring constantly.
• Set the top of the double boiler over simmering water and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture is thick (approximately ten minutes); do not boil.
• Remove from heat and stir in gelatin mixture.
• Set aside.
• In a bowl, beat the egg whites with the remaining 1/4 cup of sugar until stiff peaks form.
• Fold drained Nesselrode fruit sauce gently into the egg whites, then fold the mixture into the reserved gelatin mixture.
• Cover and refrigerate approximately 10 to 20 minutes.
• Turn mixture into a baked pie shell or spoon into 8 parfait glasses.
• Chill until firm or overnight.
• Sprinkle generously with chocolate shavings for garnish, if desired.

Steps:

• Heat the milk in a saucepan and when it is warm, add the gelatin. Stir to dissolve. Bring just to the simmer and remove from the heat.
• Put the egg yolks in a mixing bowl and add one-quarter cup of sugar. Beat until golden yellow and slightly thickened. Add the hot milk mixture, stirring vigorously.
• Pour this liquid into a saucepan and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, until the custard coats the spoon with a film. The correct temperature on a thermometer is 180 degrees. Immediately pour the mixture into a cold mixing bowl so that it does not cook further. Add the Nesselrode mix and stir. Let cool.
• Beat the egg whites until foamy. Continue beating while gradually adding the remaining one-third cup of sugar. Beat until stiff and fold this into the custard mixture.
• Beat the cream until stiff and fold it into the custard. Pour the mixture into the pie shell. Cover and refrigerate several hours or overnight until set.

• Add 1/4 cup sugar, a little at a time.
