"I prefer to regard a dessert as I would imagine the perfect woman: subtle, a little bittersweet, not blowsy and extrovert. Delicately made up, not highly rouged. Holding back, not exposing everything and, of course, with a flavor that lasts."
Graham Kerr (the Galloping Gourmet)


"The dessert crowns the dinner. To create a fine dessert, one has to combine the skills of a confectioner, a decorator, a painter, an architect, an ice-cream manufacturer, a sculptor, and a florist. The splendour of such creations appeals above all to the eye - the real gourmand admires them without touching them! The magnificence of the dessert should not allow one to forget the cheese. Cheese complements a good dinner and supplements a bad one."
Eugene Briffault

Cranberry-Orange Shrub

 

Ingredients

1 no ingredients



 

Preparation

1 c water -- plus
2 TB cold water
2 c cranberries
1/2 envelope unflavored gelatin
1/4 c honey
1 c fresh orange juice
: MUCH LATER:
2 c skim milk
1 egg white -- at room
: temperature

"This rich pink dessert is similar to sorbet but lighter in texture."
(Untried)

In a medium saucepan, bring 1 cup of water to a boil, add the
cranberries, and reduce the heat. Simmer the fruit until it is soft,
about 10 minutes. Put the cranberries through a food mill to remove
the skins, or press through a sieve; keep warm.

Meanwhile, put the remaining 2 tablespoons of cold water in a large
bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over it, and let the gelatin soften for 3
to 5 minutes. Stir in the hot cranberries and the honey and mix well
to melt the gelatin and distribute it evenly throughout the fruit.

Let cool to room temperature and stir in the orange juice. Cover the
bowl and refrigerate until well chilled. (From 4 to 8 hours)

Beat in the milk, pour the mixture into a shallow metal dish, and
freeze it until solid. Break it into chunks, transfer them to the
bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade, and process
until smooth. Alternatively, puree the mixture with a hand-held mixer.

Beat the egg white until it is stiff, fold it into the slush, and
return the mixture to the freezing pan. Freeze the dessert for at
least 30 minutes more. If it has frozen solid, transfer it to the
refrigerator to soften for about 15 minutes. Serve in chilled
goblets. Serves 4 at 170 cals each.
