CHERRY BROWN BUTTER CROSTATA WITH VANILLA ICE CREAM AND CARAMEL SAUCE



Cherry Brown Butter Crostata with Vanilla Ice Cream and Caramel Sauce image

Provided by Anne Burrell

Categories     dessert

Time 6h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

3 cups heavy cream
1 cup granulated sugar
1 vanilla bean, split
6 eggs
Pinch salt
1 1/2 sticks cold unsalted butter, cut into pea-size pieces
1 cup flour
Pinch kosher salt
1/4 cup ice water
1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup flour
3 eggs, plus 1 egg, beaten with 1 tablespoon water
1 vanilla bean, split, seeds scraped
2 cups pitted cherries
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 lemon, juiced
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 stick unsalted butter, cut into 4 pats

Steps:

  • For the ice cream: In a medium saucepan, combine the cream, 1/2 cup of the granulated sugar, and vanilla bean. Bring just to a simmer, stirring occasionally, then remove from the heat.
  • In a small bowl, combine the eggs and the remaining 1/2 cup sugar and beat to a homogeneous consistency.
  • Strain a third of the cream mixture into the egg mixture, whisk to combine, and then immediately whisk the egg mixture back into the saucepan with the cream. Chill in an ice bath and place in the freezer for 30 minutes.
  • Churn in an ice cream machine according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  • For the crust: Combine the butter, flour and salt in a food processor. Pulse until the mixture looks like grated Parmesan. Drizzle in 2 tablespoons of the ice water, and pulse until the mixture forms a rough ball, adding the remaining 2 tablespoons ice water if needed. Remove the dough from the food processor and form into a disk. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  • For the filling: Melt the butter in a small saucepan and cook it until it starts to brown and begins to smell like hazelnuts. Transfer to the bowl of a stand mixer equipped with a paddle. Add the sugar and beat on medium speed.
  • Gradually add the flour. Once the flour has combined, add the eggs, one at a time. Beat in the vanilla bean seeds.
  • To assemble: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Dust a clean work surface with flour. Roll out the dough to a 1/8-inch thickness, and cut into 4 rounds. Lay the rounds in four 4-inch ring molds, leaving lots of overhang on the sides. Schmear the filling into the bottom of the ring molds, and top with the cherries. Fold the overhanging dough over the cherries. Brush the dough with the egg wash. Bake until golden brown and crispy on top, 45 to 50 minutes.
  • For the caramel: In a small saucepan, combine the sugar, lemon juice and 2 tablespoons water. Bring the pan to medium-high heat; while doing so, be careful not to swish the pan around--it could cause the sugar to recrystallize. As the sugar mixture boils, the water will eventually evaporate and the sugar will begin to turn brown, or "caramelize." Pay close attention! Things can take a terrible turn for the worse here, and there will be no recovery. As the sugar turns gold, followed by light brown, and then a pale shade of darker brown, remove it from the heat and add the heavy cream. Be careful when you do this--it will bubble up like crazy, and getting it on you could cause a severe burn! Be sure to have a saucepan large enough to accommodate the bubbling up. Whisk until things settle down, then add the butter, 2 pats at a time, whisking until completely incorporated before adding more butter.
  • Spread some of the caramel onto four serving plates. Unmold the crostatas and set them on top of the caramel. Top with a scoop of ice cream.

PROFITEROLES WITH ICE CREAM AND CARAMEL SAUCE



Profiteroles with Ice Cream and Caramel Sauce image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup water
4 ounces unsalted butter, cubed
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
1 cup all-purpose flour
4 eggs
1 quart ice cream, to fill profiteroles
Caramel Sauce, recipe follows
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup water
1 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Put the water, butter, and salt in a heavy 2-quart saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring occasionally, to melt the butter. Remove the pan from the heat and add the flour all at once. Stir with a wooden spoon until the dough comes together to form a ball. Place the pan over medium heat and beat constantly until the dough pulls away from the sides of the pan, about 4 minutes. Do not let it burn. A film may form on the bottom of the pan.
  • Put the dough in an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Add the eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and continue to beat the dough for 4 minutes at high speed. Feel the dough: it should be sticky at first and then smooth and glossy.
  • Line a sheet pan with parchment paper, and use a little bit of the dough to stick the corners of the paper down. Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a large tip. Pipe the dough into 2-inch balls spaced about 1-inch apart on the parchment paper. Bake for 15 minutes; then rotate the tray and lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Continue to bake for 10 minutes. Turn the oven off, leaving the door slightly open to let the profiteroles cool in the oven.
  • To assemble, cut the profiteroles in 1/2 using a serrated knife. Place a scoop of ice cream on the botton 1/2 of the profiterole. Put the top on and drizzle with caramel sauce.
  • Put the sugar and water in a 2-quart saucepan over medium heat. Stir once or twice to dissolve the sugar. Increase the heat to high and use a pastry brush dipped in cold water to brush down any crystallized sugar that forms on the side of the pan. Let the mixture bubble and caramelize until it is amber, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk the cream in very slowly. Stir in the butter. Cool to room temperature before serving.

Categories     dessert

Time 2h42m

Yield 4 to 6 servings (about 6 cups)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 teaspoon gelatin
1 vanilla bean, preferably Tahitian
2 cups heavy whipping cream, chilled
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup coconut milk
1/2 cup light rum
1/2 cup toasted coconut, see Cook's Note

Steps:

  • Place 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan. Sprinkle the gelatin over the water and allow softening, about 2 minutes. Cut the vanilla bean in half lengthwise and scrape the seeds into the water mixture using a paring knife. Add the empty vanilla pods. Stir the water mixture over medium heat until the gelatin has dissolved. Set aside to cool slightly. Remove and discard the vanilla pods.
  • Beat the cream until thick using an electric hand mixer in a medium bowl. Add the sugar and continue to beat until the cream holds soft peaks. Add the water mixture, coconut milk and rum. Beat until thick and light.
  • Pour the mixture into an 8-by-8-inch glass baking dish. Freeze until the mixture is the texture of soft-serve ice cream, about 2 1/2 hours.
  • Scoop the mixture into small glasses using an ice cream scoop. Garnish with toasted coconut and serve. Freeze any unused ice cream in an airtight container.
  • Cook's Notes: To toast coconut, place sweetened or unsweetened, shredded or flaked coconut in a single layer on a baking sheet. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Bake, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • If freezing the ice cream for longer than 2 1/2 hours, allow the ice cream to stand at room temperature until softened, about 30 minutes before serving. Whisk the ice cream until smooth and serve.

FIVE-SPICE ICE CREAM



Five-Spice Ice Cream image

We were enchanted by Segovia-Welsh’s idea of cold ice cream flavored with "warming" spices such as those found in the fragrant Chinese blend called five-spice powder. It turns the honest little [caramel pecan cakes](/recipes/food/views/350212) into something suave.

Provided by Monica Segovia-Welsh

Yield Makes about 1 1/2 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 (2-inch) pieces dried tangerine peel
2 teaspoons black peppercorns
1 teaspoon pink peppercorns
1 whole star anise
1/2 teaspoon whole cloves
1/2 teaspoon whole allspice
2 cups heavy cream
2 cups whole milk
1 cup sugar, divided
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise
1 whole large egg
8 large egg yolks
1 tablespoon dark rum
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
an electric coffee/spice grinder
an ice cream maker

Steps:

  • Tear tangerine peel into pieces. Pulse peppercorns, star anise, cloves, and allspice to a coarse mixture in grinder.
  • Combine cream, milk, tangerine peel, spices, and 1/2 cup sugar in a heavy medium saucepan. With tip of a paring knife, scrape seeds from vanilla bean into cream mixture, then drop in pod. Bring mixture just to a boil over medium heat. Remove from heat and let steep, covered, 20 minutes.
  • Bring spiced milk to a simmer, then strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, discarding spices and peel. Return to saucepan.
  • Whisk whole egg and yolks with remaining 1/2 cup sugar in bowl until pale, then add hot spiced milk in a slow stream, whisking. Return to saucepan and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, until mixture coats back of spoon and registers 170 to 175°F on an instant-read thermometer (do not let boil). Immediately strain custard through fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, then whisk in rum and kosher salt.
  • Chill custard at least 6 hours, then freeze in ice cream maker.

Tips:

  • To easily remove the skin from the kabocha squash, roast it in the oven until tender, then let cool slightly before peeling.
  • Use a microplane to finely grate the fresh ginger and lemongrass for the best flavor.
  • If you don't have homemade chicken stock, you can use a good quality store-bought brand.
  • When making the caramel sauce, be careful not to overcook it, as it can easily burn.

Conclusion:

This Five-Spice Pumpkin Soup with Tahitian Vanilla Ice Cream and Caramel Sauce is a delicious and unique dish that is perfect for a special occasion.
