CARAMEL YOGURT



Caramel Yogurt image

Provided by Harold Mcgee

Categories     dessert

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 half-cup servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 quart plain whole-fat yogurt, homemade or manufactured with milk and cultures only (do not use yogurt with stabilizers or Greek yogurt, which is already drained)
1/2 cup sugar
Pinch of salt
Ground cardamom, cinnamon or grated lemon zest for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Place yogurt in a fine-meshed strainer or colander lined with cheesecloth. Place strainer over a bowl and drain for at least 3 hours, or overnight. Reserve all liquid in bowl: this is whey. There should be about 2 cups firm drained yogurt. If necessary, return enough whey to yogurt to make 2 cups.
  • In a medium saucepan, place sugar, salt and 1 cup whey. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring frequently; adjust heat as needed so mixture does not boil over. Cook until liquid boils off and remaining syrup becomes deep brown, 20 to 30 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Add 2 tablespoons whey to pot and stir to blend well. If mixture is too thick to stir, add another tablespoon of whey. Allow caramel to cool slightly, stirring frequently to make sure it remains fluid. (If caramel stiffens too much to stir, place over a pot of hot water and stir until fluid again.) Add 1/4 cup yogurt to pot and stir vigorously to blend. Add remaining yogurt and stir to blend fully.
  • Transfer to a covered container and refrigerate until chilled, at least 30 minutes. If desired, serve garnished with a sprinkling of cardamom, cinnamon or grated lemon zest.

Pecan-Yogurt Apple Cake with Star Anise Caramel Sauce image

Provided by Ming Tsai

Categories     dessert

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

3/4 cup (6 ounces) unsalted butter
3/4 cup sugar
5 golden delicious apples, peeled, cored and quartered
2/3 cup chopped pecans
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon five spice powder
3/8 cup (3 ounces) unsalted butter
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 tablespoons minced ginger
2 large eggs
1/2 cup yogurt
2 star anise
1/2 cup calvados
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • For the Apples: Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In an oven proof skillet or non-stick pan, melt butter over low-medium heat and stir in sugar. Arrange apples, pretty side down (like a tart tatin) and distribute pecans on top and within the apples. Cook for 25 to 30 minutes until caramel is golden brown and apples are tender in the middle. Pour batter* on apples and carefully spread leaving a slight border of apples with no batter, (this will help in de-molding the cake). Place on a tray and bake in the oven for 25 to 30 minutes, until cake is golden-brown and delicious and a tester comes out with some crumbs stuck to it. Cool on a rack 15 minutes before de-molding on a large plate.
  • For the Batter: Mix the first 4 dry ingredients together. In a mixer with a paddle on high speed, cream the butter with the sugar until pale in color and fluffy. Add the vanilla, ginger and 1 egg and incorporate. Add the second egg and incorporate well. Add the yogurt, mix well, then turn mixer to slow and add the dry mix. Mix only until combined, do not over mix.
  • For the Star Anise Caramel Sauce: In a pan, gently heat the star anise with the calvados until a 50 percent reduction is achieved. Remove star anise. In a non-reactive, thick pan, mix sugar and water together and bring up to a simmer on medium heat. Cook until golden brown, then slowly add the infused calvados. Mix well then whisk in the cream. Be careful, mixture will boil rapidly. Reserve warm.
  • PLATING Slice the cake and place on a plate. Drizzle caramel sauce all over. May serve with some whipped cream if desired.
