Steps:
- Poach apricots:
- Scrape seeds from vanilla bean into a 2-quart saucepan, then add pod, water, sugar, zest, and salt. Bring to a boil, uncovered, over high heat, then boil 1 minute.
- Carefully add apricots, then reduce heat and poach at a bare simmer, turning over once, until fruit is tender but still holds its shape and skins are still intact, 2 to 6 minutes. Transfer apricots and syrup to a large shallow bowl and cool to room temperature, about 1 1/2 hours.
- Make zabaglione:
- Beat together yolks, sugar, and wine in a deep 4-quart metal bowl with a handheld electric mixer at medium speed or whisk vigorously until combined well.
- Set bowl over a 4-quart pot of barely simmering water and beat mixture until tripled in volume, 5 to 6 minutes.
- To serve:
- Spoon 2 or 3 apricot halves into each of 6 glasses and top with zabaglione. Serve immediately.
Tips:
- Choose ripe, firm apricots. Overripe apricots will break down during the poaching process, while underripe apricots will be too tart.
- Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan. This will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the apricots from scorching.
- Cover the saucepan while the apricots are poaching. This will help to create a steamy environment that will help to soften the apricots.
- Let the apricots cool in the poaching liquid. This will help them to absorb the flavors of the liquid.
- Serve the apricots at room temperature or chilled. They can be served on their own, or with yogurt, ice cream, or whipped cream.
Conclusion:
Honey vanilla poached apricots are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert. They are perfect for a summer party or a special occasion. The apricots are soft and juicy, with a delicate flavor of honey and vanilla. The poaching liquid can be used to make a delicious sauce, or it can be simply drizzled over the apricots. These apricots are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
