Sliced Stone Fruits With Muscat Sabayon Recipes

Steps:

• Cut large fruits into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Halve and pit cherries. Divide among 4 serving dishes or cups.
• Whisk together egg yolks and sugar in a large nonreactive stainless steel bowl. Set bowl over a pan of simmering water (water should be about 2 inches below bowl). Pour in Muscat, and whisk vigorously to incorporate air until mixture has more than doubled in volume, is lightly frothy, and is as thick as softly whipped cream, about 3 minutes. If yolks begin to cook at sides of bowl, continue to whisk while lifting the bowl about 3 to 4 inches above the simmering water.
• Spoon sabayon over fruit, making sure not to scrape up any cooked egg from sides, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• In the top of a double boiler, whisk together sugar and egg yolks.
• Stir in champagne.
• Place over simmering water, whisking constantly, until mixture becomes thick and foamy.
• Chill until firm.

Steps:

• Preheat grill to high. You can use an outdoor barbeque but place fruit cut side down.
• Place fruit in heatproof dish and sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon.
• Grill for 10 - 15 minutes until caramelised.
• Serve warm with icecream or cheese.

Steps:

• Heat water in a pan.
• Allow it to boil.
• The pan is to be used as a double boiler.
• Reduce heat, allow to simmer.
• Beat egg yolks in a bowl.
• Add sugar to the egg yolks.
• Mix well.
• Keep this bowl containing yolks and sugar (sabayyon) over the pan in which the water is simmering.
• Keep mixing the tolks- sugar mixture for 3-5 minutes while holding it over the pan.
• Put the chopped fruits in a bowl.
• Pour the sabayyon over the fruits.
• Gratinate for 2-3 minutes until a crisp brown colour appears over the fruits.
• Serve immediately if you want a hot dessert or add some ice cream (your favourite flavour) over the fruits-sabayyon mixture and serve as a cold dessert.
• Pour the sabayyon over this.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. In a small bowl, whisk together the sugar and spices.
• In another bowl, toss the fruit with the vanilla, and orange juice.
• In a roasting pan or oven-proof baking dish, arrange the fruit cut-side up pouring any extra juice in the baking dish. Sprinkle evenly with sugar and spices.
• Roast for approximately 20 minutes or until the fruit is fork tender.
• Serve the roasted fruit over vanilla bean ice cream accompanied by a shortbread cookie. You could also serve fruit with fresh whipped cream or creme fraiche and use it as a filling or topping for crepes.
• Roasted Fruit Variations:.
• Peaches and Cream:.
• Roast peaches with cinnamon and nutmeg. Serve with sweetened cream in between sliced buttermilk biscuits.
• Cranberry-Pear Walnut:
• Roast 4 sliced Anjou or Bosc pears with 3/4 cup fresh or frozen cranberries. Substitute the brown sugar for white sugar and add cinnamon. After the pears are roasted top with toasted walnuts.
• Vanilla-Roasted Nectarines:
• Roast the nectarines seasoned with cardamom and slightly increase the vanilla extract. Serve with creme fraiche that has been sweetened with honey and vanilla.

Steps:

• Preparing the strawberries:
• About an hour before serving the dessert, rinse the strawberries (stems on) and drain them on paper towels. Slice off the stems and halve or quarter the strawberries lengthwise, depending on size, into a bowl. Sprinkle over the sugar and the lemon juice; fold gently together to blend well. Taste a strawberry, add more sugar or lemon juice if needed, and set aside to macerate.
• Whipping the sabayon:
• If you want to serve the sabayon warm, make it at the last minute. If you want to glaze the sabayon under the broiler, or make it ahead of time to serve chilled, have ready a large bowl (larger than the one in which you whip the sauce) partly filled with ice cubes.
• Whisk to blend the yolks, Marsala, and sugar in the stainless-steel bowl. Rest the bowl in the saucepan over hot water. Whisk constantly for 4 to 5 minutes or more to cook the sauce, until it has the consistency of lightly whipped cream. Clear the bottom of the bowl constantly with the whisk so that the eggs do not scramble, and adjust the heat as needed. Taste the sauce - the sabayon should never get so hot that you can't stick your very clean finger in it - and whisk drops of lemon juice or more sugar if you want. When thick, foamy, and tripled in volume, remove from heat. It can be served hot as is, tepid, or cool.
• Serving:
• Spoon a portion of strawberries - 1/2 cup or more - into each goblet or glass, and top with 1/3 to 1/2 cup of warm or cool sabayon. Or put the sauce in the glass first, then the strawberries.
• Variation: Strawberries Glazed with Sabayon
• Cool the sabayon to room temperature. Whip the cream and sugar until soft peaks form, and fold the cream into the sabayon with a rubber spatula.
• Turn on the broiler. Spread the strawberries in the baking dish in one layer (or in individual dishes). Spoon the sauce over the berries so they are completely covered and set the dish under the broiler, 5 to 6 inches from the heat. With the door open - so you can watch carefully - broil for a minute or two, turning the dish as needed to glaze evenly, until the top of the sabayon is nicely browned and slightly crusted. Serve right away.
