Answer 1

Now is the end of the bounty of summer; why not take advantage of it? Make a salad of fresh fruits: peaches, nectarines, strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, apples, bananas, mango . . . Your imagination is the limit. Cut up the fruit, combine it with your favorite yogurt, and refrigerate to chill . . . You can serve it on sliced pound cake, angel food cake, or just heaped in bowls.

Have fun!

Answer 2

I really like this recipe and get comments on it whenever I prepare it. Semifreddo has a very similar texture to ice cream but is easier to make. The raspberries make it special and very refreshing.

3 eggs
2 egg yolks, extra
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup Castor sugar
500g frozen raspberries
1 3/4 cups single/pouring cream

Place eggs, yolks, vanilla and sugar into a heatproof bowl. Place over a saucepan of simmering water and whisk the mixture with a hand held beater for 4 to 5 minutes or until heated, thick and pale. Remove from the heat and whisk until cool. Lightly crush or break up the raspberries and gently fold through the egg mixture. Set aside.
Whisk cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the egg mixture into the Gram until just combined. Pour into 6 1 cup capacity serving glasses and freeze until firm.

Answer 4

Creme Brulée

2 cups heavy cream
4 egg yolks
1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp. Pure Vanilla Extract
8 tsp. granulated sugar for caramelizing

Preheat oven to 300 F. and have a pot of hot water ready. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine cream and 1/4 cup sugar; cook, stirring, until steam rises, 4-5 minutes. In a bowl, beat egg yolks and vanilla until blended. Gradually pour hot cream into yolks, stirring constantly. Strain mixture through a fine-mesh sieve set over a bowl; divide among four 7-oz ramekins. Line a 3" deep baking pan with a clean kitchen towel, place ramekins in pan and add hot water to fill pan halfway up the side of the ramekins. Cover loosely with foil. Bake until set, 30-35 minutes, until the centers of the custards shake gently when the pan is shifted. Remove the pan from the oven and allow the ramekins to cool slightly. Remove the ramekins from the pan, cool to room temperature, then chill thoroughly 3 hours or overnight. Just before serving, sprinkle the custards with 2 tsp. sugar and caramelize the topping with a kitchen torch, or place the ramekins under a broiler,
2-3 inches from the heat for 3-4 minutes. Watch carefully.
