Categories     dessert

Time 40m

Yield 8 to 10 shortcakes

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 1/2 cupsall-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/3 cup granulated sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, chilled and cut into small pieces
1 cup heavy cream, plus more for brushing
1/2 cup whole milk
Turbinado or raw brown sugar, for sprinkling
2 pints strawberries, hulled and sliced lengthwise
1 tablespoon granulated sugar, or to taste
Whipped cream, for serving

Steps:

  • For the shortcakes: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking sheet or parchment paper.
  • In the bowl of a heavy-duty mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt on low speed. Add the butter and mix on low until the mixture resembles coarse meal, about 2 minutes. Add the cream and milk and increase the speed to medium; mix until the dough comes together. Remove the dough to a lightly floured surface, lightly knead a few times and shape into a rectangle about 3/4 inch thick.
  • Cut out dough circles using a 3-inch round cutter. Place the circles on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops lightly with cream and sprinkle with the turbinado sugar. Bake until the shortcakes are golden brown, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool.
  • For the strawberries: Meanwhile, place the strawberries in a bowl. Add the granulated sugar and toss together.
  • To serve, halve the shortcakes horizontally with a serrated knife. Place the bottom halves on individual serving plates, top each with a dollop of whipped cream and then some berries. Cover with the tops of the shortcakes and serve.
  • The shortcakes can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.

STRAWBERRIES WITH BROWN BUTTER SHORTCAKE



Strawberries With Brown Butter Shortcake image

This recipe came to The Times from David Guas, a New Orleans chef. He substitutes a spongecake enriched with browned butter for crumbly shortcake. And instead of simply seasoning raw berries with sugar, he cooks them lightly over steaming water with orange zest, which fills the kitchen with the smell of warm, simmering fruit.

Categories     dessert

Time 1h15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 pounds (6 cups) strawberries, hulled, quartered if large
Zest of 1 orange
1 1/4 cups sugar
1 1/2 sticks plus 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 large eggs
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup buttermilk
Whipped cream for serving

Steps:

  • Pour an inch of water into a large pot and simmer over medium-high heat. Stir strawberries, orange zest and 1/4 cup sugar in a large stainless steel mixing bowl, cover with plastic wrap and place on pot so bowl does not touch water. Reduce heat to low and let strawberries cook for 20 minutes. Remove bowl and refrigerate until chilled. (Strawberry sauce, which will be chunky, can be made up to one day ahead.)
  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Place a 10-inch cake pan on parchment paper; trace and cut out a circle. Grease pan's bottom and sides with one tablespoon butter, press parchment into pan, then flip paper over, buttered side up. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons flour on parchment and tap to coat bottom and sides of pan; discard excess.
  • Melt remaining butter over medium-high heat. Simmer, whisking often to incorporate any solids that sink to bottom, until butter is a golden-amber color and smells nutty, about 4 to 6 minutes. If it sputters, reduce heat. Set butter aside to cool.
  • Bring the large pot with an inch of water in it to a simmer again over medium-high heat. Whisk eggs and remaining one cup sugar together in a large heatproof bowl and place over pot of water. Again, bottom of bowl should not touch water. Reduce heat to low and whisk mixture until it has tripled in volume, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Transfer to a mixing bowl and, using a hand mixer or a stand mixer, whip on high speed until mixture is thick and pale, 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce speed of mixer to low and slowly drizzle in warm butter (adding it too quickly will cause batter to separate), using a rubber spatula to scrape browned bits into batter.
  • Sift remaining 1 cup flour, baking powder and salt together. Using a whisk, gently fold one-third of dry ingredients into batter, then half the buttermilk. Repeat, ending with last third of dry mixture. Transfer batter to cake pan and bake until cake sides pull away from pan and center resists light pressure, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before running a paring knife around edge of pan to release cake. Invert onto a rack to cool completely.
  • Slice into wedges and serve topped with the strawberry sauce and a dollop of whipped cream.

CLASSIC STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE



Classic Strawberry Shortcake image

A good way to celebrate strawberry season. The texture of this not-too-sweet biscuit is light and fluffy inside and crisp outside. If you like ginger, you can make a variation of this biscuit by adding 2 tablespoons chopped crystalized ginger and 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger into the biscuit dough before baking.

Categories     dessert

Time 50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
3 tablespoons sugar, plus more for sprinkling
1 tablespoon baking powder
Fine salt
4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 1/3 cups heavy cream, plus more for brushing
1 large egg
1/4 cup honey
One 16-ounce container strawberries, trimmed and chopped (about 3 cups)
1/3 cup mint leaves, torn, plus more for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
  • Whisk together the flour, 2 tablespoons of the sugar, the baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Add the butter and work it into the flour, using your fingers or a pastry cutter, until the butter pieces are the size of small peas.
  • Whisk together 1/3 cup of the cream with the egg and 1/3 cup water in a small bowl. Add to the dry mixture and stir with a wooden spoon until a stiff batter forms. Drop 6 mounds onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each biscuit. Brush with a bit of cream and sprinkle with sugar. Bake until golden brown, about 25 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet.
  • While the biscuits bake and cool, combine the honey with 1/3 cup water and a pinch of salt in a small saucepot. Gently simmer, stirring, over medium heat until the honey is dissolved and the mixture is slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Cool, and then toss in a medium bowl with the strawberries and mint. If time allows, set aside for at least 30 minutes to allow the strawberries to release their juices.
  • To assemble, whip the remaining 1 cup cream with the remaining 1 tablespoon sugar to soft peaks in a medium bowl. Split each biscuit and place the bottom half on a plate. Top evenly with the berries and accumulated juices and then the whipped cream. Place the top of the biscuit on the shortcake and garnish with fresh mint.

STRAWBERRY AND BROWN BUTTER SHORTCAKE



Strawberry and Brown Butter Shortcake image

The brown butter lends fabulous flavor to an otherwise bland shortcake. Make the strawberry sauce, as directed, or simply use freshly sliced strawberries to top this cake.

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 0

Steps:

  • 1. Prepare Strawberry Sauce: Fill large pot with one-inch of water; bring to a simmer. In a medium stainless steel bowl, combine strawberries, lemon zest and 1/4 cup sugar. Cover with plastic wrap and place the bowl on the pot of simmering water (the water should not be touching the bottom of the bowl). Let strawberries cook for 20 minutes. Remove the bowl from the pot; refrigerate until chilled (may be made one day ahead). 2. Prepare the pan: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place 9 or 10-inch cake pan on parchment paper, trace a circle and cut out. Spray the pan with nonstick spray, then place the round piece of parchment into the bottom of the pan and spray one more time. Sprinkle a couple of spoonfuls of flour into the pan, tap and coat bottom and sides of the pan and discard any excess flour. Note: If you use a 9-inch pan... make sure it's one that has tall sides. I used a regular 9-inch pan and it worked just fine, but the cake definitely rose to the top of the pan (it did not spill over the sides, thankfully!) 3. Brown the butter: Melt butter over medium-high heat. Simmer, whisking constantly, until butter is a golden-amber color and smells nutty, about 4 to 6 minutes (you'll begin to see browned bits floating in the bottom of the pan). Reduce heat if it's boiling too rapidly. Watch the butter closely as it turns from browned to burnt rather quickly. Remove from heat and let cool. 4. Prepare the cake: In a large bowl, whisk eggs and 1 cup sugar vigorously for about 2 minutes. The mixture will be bright yellow. Set whisk aside and use electric mixer to whip the eggs & sugar on high speed until the mixture is thick and paled in color (2 to 3 minutes more). Reduce speed to low and slowly add in the cooled brown butter. Make sure you scrape in all of the brown bits too. 5. Sift flour, baking powder and salt together. Using a whisk, gently stir in one-third of dry ingredients into the batter, then half the buttermilk. Repeat, ending with the last third of the dry mixture. Scrape the batter into your prepared pan. Bake until the cake sides pull away from the pan and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 25 minutes for a 10-inch pan and about 40 minutes for a 9-inch pan. If the cake appears to be browning too quickly, cover lightly with foil in the last 10 minutes of baking. Let cake cool on a wire rack for about 20 minutes before removing from pan. Run a knife around the edge of the pan and invert it onto a wire rack to cool completely. 6. Cut wedges and serve topped with strawberry sauce (or simply sliced fresh strawberries) and whipped cream.

Time 40m

Yield 9

Number Of Ingredients 16

Strawberries:
3 pint baskets fresh strawberries (about 6 cups)
1/2 cup (100 g) white granulated sugar for the strawberries
Whipped Cream:
1 cup (236 ml) heavy whipping cream
2 teaspoons powdered sugar
2 drops vanilla extract
Biscuits:
3 1/4 cups (455g) all purpose flour, divided ( 3 cups and 1/4 cup)
3 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
12 tablespoons (168g) unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
1 cup (236 ml) milk
1/4 (60 ml) cup heavy cream
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Prep the strawberries: Cut the stems away from the strawberries and discard. Cut the strawberries in half, and then in either quarters or thick slices.
  • Macerate the strawberries with sugar: Put the cut strawberries into a large bowl and sprinkle with sugar. Start with 1/4 cup of sugar and then add up to another 1/4 cup depending on how sweet your strawberries are. Gently stir the strawberries until they are all coated with some sugar. Let sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes, until the berries soften and begin to release their juices.
  • Mash some of the strawberries: After 20 minutes or so, mash about a quarter of the berries in the bowl with a potato masher and stir to mix. You don't want to mash all the berries, just enough of them for their juices. Let sit while you bake the biscuits.
  • Bake the biscuits: Use the recipe below to bake the biscuits.
  • Make the whipped cream: While the biscuits are baking, whip the cream using an electric mixer, adding a drop or two of vanilla and 2 teaspoons of powdered sugar. Cover with plastic and place in the refrigerator to chill until ready to serve. To serve, break up one biscuit per person into big pieces into a bowl. Ladle strawberries over the biscuit. Add a dollop of whipped cream.
  • Stir the flour with dry ingredients: In a large bowl, vigorously whisk together 3 cups of the flour, the sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  • Work in the butter: Cut the butter into the flour mixture, either using your fingers, a pastry cutter, a fork, or a food processor, until the largest pieces of butter are the size of peas.
  • Add the wet ingredients: Stir together the milk and cream, add the vanilla extract. Make a well in the center of the flour and pour the milk mixture into it. Mix with a fork or wooden spoon until the mixture is just combined. It should look rather shaggy. If it is too wet to work with, sprinkle some of the remaining 1/4 cup of flour over it. Gently knead by hand a few times to form a loose ball of dough, adding more flour if needed. It should be slightly tacky but not wet.
  • Chill the dough: Place the dough on a lightly floured surface and form it into an 8-inch square, about 3/4-inch to an inch thick. Place it on a parchment or silicone-lined baking sheet, cover with plastic wrap and chill for 20 minutes.
  • Bake the biscuits: Heat the oven to 425ºF. Remove the dough from refrigerator. Cut the dough into 9 even squares and space them about 2 inches apart from each other on the baking sheet. Bake until the biscuits are medium golden brown, 18 to 20 minutes. Makes 9 biscuits.
  • Serve: Split the biscuits, if you like, and top with the macerated strawberries and whipped cream.

¾ teaspoon fine sea salt
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold, cubed
