Stir in the coconut milk and heavy cream, and strain through a chinois. Chill soup and serve with dumplings, pineapple lime bombe, tropical fruit salsa and basil oil.
  • In a medium skillet, caramelize 3 ounces of sugar until golden brown. Add the diced pineapple and vanilla beans and stir until sugar dissolves and pineapple is softened. Set pineapple aside to cool. In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese until light and fluffy. Add 1-ounce sugar, pinch of salt and egg and mix until just combined.

Drain dumplings well before serving. Yield: 1 to 2 dozen

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my soup turned out really watery. I think I might have added too much liquid.
