Grilled Peaches w/ Crème Fraîche Recipe image

Plan ahead if you are making the homemade creme fraiche. It takes 24-36 hours to culture. However, you should make this, it will make you happy. There's 2 variations for culturing the cream, buttermilk or sour cream. The culture ultimately dictates the flavor of the creme fraiche; sour cream will give a slightly sweeter and creamier texture, buttercream will give you a bit more tang. Glaze and creme fraiche can be made ahead of time. Re-whisk both before using. Enjoy!

SIMPLEST GRILLED PEACHES



Simplest Grilled Peaches image

Grilled peaches may be summer's greatest joy. Cook them over a medium to low gas grill or a dying charcoal fire, and serve them with ice cream, whipped cream or nothing at all.

Provided by Sam Sifton

Categories     barbecues, dessert

Time 10m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 2

4 to 6 peaches
Olive oil

Steps:

  • Heat a gas grill to medium. If you are cooking on a charcoal grill, wait until the fire has died down to medium to low heat.
  • Cut the peaches along their seams, all the way around, and twist their halves off their pits. Brush the cut sides of the peaches with olive oil and grill, cut side down, until the fruit has developed grill marks and started to soften, about 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Brush the tops with oil, turn over and move to the side of the grill to continue cooking over indirect heat, another 4 to 5 minutes. You can add flavor by brushing them with maple syrup and bourbon, or molasses and butter. But if they are perfect peaches, they shouldn't need anything at all.

Reduce to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened to a syrup, about 10 minutes. Strain.
  • For the peaches: Preheat a gas grill to medium-high.

GRILLED PEACHES WITH AMARETTI

Categories     dessert

Time 20m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

8 ripe peaches, cut in 1/2 and pitted
1/4 cup vanilla sugar, recipe follows
1/4 cup good dark rum (recommended: Mount Gay)
1/4 cup good almond liqueur (recommended: Amaretto Di Savonna)
8 amaretti cookies, crumbled
Creme fraiche or vanilla ice cream to serve, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Heat a grill with a single layer of charcoal. When the coals are hot, brush the grill with a little oil to make sure the peaches don't stick. Place the peaches, cut side down, on the grill and cook for a few minutes, until they're slightly charred.
  • Place the peaches in an oven-proof dish, sprinkle each half with a little vanilla sugar. Combine the rum and amaretto and drizzle 1/2 of it on the peaches. Bake the peaches for about 10 minutes, until they're very tender. Serve hot, at room temperature, or cold with crumbled amaretti cookies on top or with the cookies on the side. I like to serve them with a dollop of creme fraiche or vanilla ice cream.
  • Vanilla Sugar:
  • Find a jar tall enough to hold 2 vanilla beans. Fill the bottle with sugar and cover tightly. Store on a pantry shelf. After about 3 months you will have a wonderful ingredient for cooking and baking. Keep adding vanilla beans and sugar to the jar and you will have it for years.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, firm peaches: Soft or bruised peaches will not hold up well on the grill.
  • Use a grill basket: This will help keep the peaches from falling through the grates.
  • Grill the peaches over medium heat: This will prevent them from burning.
  • Cook the peaches until they are slightly softened and grill marks appear: This usually takes about 5-7 minutes per side.
  • Let the peaches cool slightly before serving: This will make them easier to handle.
  • Serve the peaches with your favorite toppings: Crème fraîche, molasses, honey, yogurt, or ice cream are all great options.

Conclusion:

Grilled peaches are a delicious and easy summer dessert. They are perfect for a cookout or a simple weeknight meal. With their sweet and smoky flavor, grilled peaches are sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dessert, give grilled peaches a try!
