Yield 4 crepes

Number Of Ingredients 8

Simple Crepes
4 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup packed light-brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch of kosher salt
1 1/2 cups halved strawberries
2 tablespoons silver rum
3 tablespoons chilled heavy cream, whisked until slightly thickened, for serving

Steps:

  • Fold crepes in quarters. Heat in 1 tablespoon unsalted butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-high, flipping once, until warm and crisp, 5 minutes; divide between 2 plates.
  • Return skillet to heat; melt 3 tablespoons butter. Stir in packed light-brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of kosher salt; cook, swirling pan, until darkened slightly, 1 to 2 minutes. Add halved strawberries; cook until tender, 2 minutes. Remove from heat; add silver rum.
  • To flambe, return skillet to medium-high heat. If using a gas burner, carefully tilt pan away from you to ignite; if using an electric burner, use a lit long match held just above the sauce. When flame subsides (5 to 10 seconds), spoon strawberries over crepes. Return skillet to medium-high heat and reduce sauce until thickened, 1 to 2 minutes; pour over crepes. Whisk heavy cream until thickened slightly. Drizzle over crepes; serve.

Time 20m

Yield 1 Cup, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups strawberries (I keep frozen ones on hand for occasions such as this)
1 teaspoon butter
1 cup sugar
1 lemon, zest of (the outermost layer of the lemon rind, which is used for flavoring)
1 orange, zest of
4 scoops vanilla ice cream
1 orange, juice of
2 tablespoons brandy

Steps:

  • Slice each strawberry in half. (if using frozen be sure to let thaw completely).
  • Heat a large saucepan, and sauté the strawberries in butter lightly in one side of the pan.
  • In the other side, melt sugar.
  • When sugar almost melts, add the orange juice and zests.
  • Carefully add brandy and watch out for the flame!
  • Serve hot over ice cream.

Tips:

  • Use fresh strawberries. Fresh strawberries have the best flavor and will caramelize beautifully when flambéed.
  • Hull the strawberries before cooking them. This will help to prevent the stems from burning.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed skillet. A heavy-bottomed skillet will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the strawberries from burning.
  • Be careful when flambéing the strawberries. Always stand back from the pan and use a long-handled lighter or match to ignite the alcohol.
  • Serve the strawberries immediately. Flambéed strawberries are best served immediately, while they are still warm and caramelized.

Conclusion:

Strawberry flambé is a classic dessert that is sure to impress your guests. It is a simple dish to make, but it looks and tastes like it came from a restaurant. The combination of sweet strawberries, caramelized sugar, and orange liqueur is irresistible. Serve strawberry flambé with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for a truly decadent dessert.
