Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup sugar
3 whole star anise
2 whole cinnamon sticks
1 pink grapefruit
2 white grapefruit
2 ruby red grapefruit
2 navel oranges
2 tangerines or clementines
2 packages unflavored gelatin
1 pint best-quality lemon sorbet
Olive-oil cooking spray

Steps:

  • Combine the sugar, star anise, cinnamon sticks, and 1 1/4 cups water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce to a simmer, and cook 5 minutes. Remove from heat; allow syrup to cool.
  • Using a paring knife, carefully remove peel, pith, and outer membranes from all citrus. Carefully slice each segment of pulp from the membranes into a sieve set over a large bowl. Transfer segments to another bowl, removing any seeds and being careful not to break segments. Set the citrus segments aside; reserve juice for another use.
  • Strain cooled syrup into a medium bowl. Sprinkle gelatin over syrup; allow to dissolve, 2 minutes. Return to saucepan; place over low heat, stirring, until gelatin has fully dissolved. Remove from heat; set aside to cool.
  • Coat a 4 1/2-by-9-inch loaf pan or 5-cup mold with cooking spray; line with plastic, allowing 6 inches to overhang on all sides. Fill pan with reserved citrus segments. Pressing firmly on fruit, tilt the pan, draining excess juice. Pour gelatin mixture over fruit, poking with a skewer so mixture runs into the corners. Carefully fold excess plastic over top, and chill until set, 6 hours or overnight.
  • To serve, unfold plastic; place a platter on top. Carefully invert both; remove pan, holding plastic in place on platter. Remove the plastic. Slice; serve with lemon sorbet.

TEACHERMAN'S CITRUS-BERRY TERRINE



Teacherman's Citrus-Berry Terrine image

This is my variation of a French gelee that uses unflavored gelatin. This makes a spring/summer brunch super classy. Be prepared: The gelatin mixture needs to chill about 1 1/2 hours and the terrine for at least 4 hours, although I make it the night before.

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 navel oranges, segments cut into bite sizes
1 pink grapefruit, segments cut into bite sizes
1/3 c cold water
2 packets unflavored gelatin
2 c orange or grapefuit juice
1/3 c sugar
3 c mixed fresh berries: blueberries, raspberries, backberries, cut up strawberries, etc

Steps:

  • 1. Put a double layer of paper towels on a cutting board and spread the citrus pieces out on the paper and cover with another double layer. Change when paper gets soaked.
  • 2. Put cold water in large bowl, sprinkle in the gelatin, and let it soften.
  • 3. Bring juice and sugar to boil in medium saucepan, stirring to dissolve sugar. Pour juice over gelatin and stir to dissolve. Put in refrigerator and let chill, stir occasionally until slightly thickened, similar to texture of egg whites, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • 4. Rinse a 9 x 5" loaf pan with water and shake out excess. Gently stir citrus and berries into the gelatin mixture and scrape all into the pan. Gently push gel down evenly into pan. Chill at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • 5. When ready to serve, dip the pan into a sinkful of hot water for a minute and run a knife around outside of pan. Unmold the terrine onto a platter, and get ready for the compliments!

Tips:

  • Use a variety of citrus fruits. This will give your terrine a more complex flavor. Some good options include oranges, grapefruit, lemons, and limes.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different herbs and spices. This is a great way to personalize your terrine and make it your own. Some good options include mint, basil, thyme, and rosemary.
  • Make sure the gelatin is completely dissolved before adding it to the citrus mixture. Otherwise, you will end up with lumps in your terrine.
  • Chill the terrine for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow it to set properly and develop its full flavor.

Conclusion:

A citrus terrine is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own liking. So next time you are looking for a special dessert, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
