Strawberrygratin Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven at 400°F.
• In a bowl, mix strawberries, lime, lemon juice and chartreuse.
• In another bowl, whisk heavy cream until soft pics.
• Spread the strawberry mixture in ramequins. Garnish with pecans.
• Cover with whipped cream and sprinkle with icing sugar.
• Cook 3 minutes. Serve now.

Steps:

• Combine the sugar, lemon zest, and lemon juice in a small saucepan and cook over very low heat for 10 minutes, until the sugar is dissolved. Add the strawberries and continue to cook over very low heat for 20 minutes, until the strawberries release some of their juices and the mixture boils slowly. Cook until a small amount of the juice gels on a very cold plate. (I keep one in the freezer.) Pour carefully into 2 pint canning jars and either seal or keep refrigerated. Use immediately, or follow proper canning guidelines below.
• Sterilizing Tips:
• Jars should be made from glass and free of any chips or cracks. Preserving or canning jars are topped with a glass, plastic, or metal lid, which has a rubber seal. Two piece lids are best for canning, as they vacuum seal when processed.
• To sterilize jars, before filling with jams, pickles, or preserves, wash jars and lids with hot, soapy water. Rinse well and arrange jars and lids open sides up, without touching, on a tray. Leave in a preheated 175 degree F oven for 25 minutes. Or, boil the jars and lids in a large saucepan, covered with water, for 15 minutes.
• Use tongs when handling the hot sterilized jars, to move them from either boiling water or the oven. Be sure the tongs are sterilized too, by dipping the ends in boiling water for a few minutes.
• As a rule, hot preserves go into hot jars and cold preserves go into cold jars. All items used in the process of making jams, jellies, and preserves must be clean. This includes any towels used, and especially your hands.
• After the jars are sterilized, you can preserve the food. It is important to follow any canning and processing instructions included in the recipe and refer to USDA guidelines about the sterilization of canned products.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler.
• In 10-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat, melt butter. Add panko and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Add cinnamon, pepper, and sugar, and toss to combine. Transfer to medium bowl and set aside.
• Spoon 2 tablespoons crème fraîche onto center of each ovenproof plate. Arrange 1/2 cup strawberries on top of each circle of crème fraîche. Drizzle each plate with 1 1/2 teaspoons honey and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon panko mixture. Working in batches, place plates on large rimmed baking sheet and broil until the crème fraîche starts to bubble and turn light golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Keep warm while broiling other batches and serve immediately.

• TO PREPARE FRUIT: In a medium pan, over medium heat, combine all ingredients.

• TO PREPARE SABAYON: In a medium bowl, over simmering water, combine egg yolks, kirsch, water and sugar, whisking vigorously until yolks are thick and creamy- about 5 to 8 minutes.
• Remove from heat and stir in cream.
• Preheat broiler on high.
• Divide fruit mixture between 4 small shallow, oven-proof gratin dishes.
• Spoon sabayon evenly, over fruit.
• Broil gratin close to element for 1 or 2 minutes, or until golden.
