Berries Salad With Whipped Ricotta Cream Recipes

Steps:

• Place the Homemade Ricotta in a medium bowl and stir in the sugar, honey, and vanilla. Set aside at room temperature for up to 2 hours. In another bowl, combine the strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries.
• When ready to serve, divide the berries among 6 bowls. With an ice cream scoop, place a large dollop of the ricotta in each bowl and drizzle with lots of the Fresh Raspberry Sauce. Sprinkle with the lemon zest and serve.
• Set a fine-mesh sieve over a deep bowl. Dampen 2 pieces of cheesecloth with water and line the sieve with a double layer of the cheesecloth.
• Pour the milk and cream into a medium stainless-steel or enameled pot, such as Le Creuset, and stir in the salt. Bring to a full rolling boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Turn off the heat and pour in the vinegar. Allow the mixture to stand for one minute, until it curdles. It will separate into thick parts (the curds) and milky parts (the whey).
• Pour the mixture into the cheesecloth-lined sieve and allow it to drain into the bowl at room temperature for 20 minutes (for soft ricotta) to 25 minutes (for firmer ricotta), occasionally discarding the liquid that collects in the bowl. Transfer the ricotta to a bowl, discarding the cheesecloth and any remaining liquid. Use immediately or cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate.
• The ricotta will keep, refrigerated, for 4 to 5 days.
• Place the raspberries, sugar, and 1/4 cup water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer for 4 minutes. Pour the cooked raspberries, the jam, and the framboise into the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade and process until smooth. Pour into a container and chill. The sauce can be refrigerated for up to one week.

Steps:

• Add the heavy cream and sugar to the chilled bowl of a stand mixer (you can also use a hand mixer or a whisk and a large chilled bowl). Whip on medium speed until the cream holds soft peaks. Add the vanilla bean paste, creme fraiche, orange zest and orange liqueur and whip on medium speed until the cream holds medium peaks.
• Layer fruit in a bowl, spoon over whipped cream and serve.

Steps:

• Toss strawberries, blueberries, 2 tablespoons of soda and mint together in a medium bowl; set aside for 10 minutes.

• Place about 3/4 cup of berry mixture in each of 4 small bowls and top each serving with 1/3 cup of cream.

Steps:

• For the whipped ricotta: Place the ricotta, olive oil and salt in a food processor. Blend until light and smooth, about 30 seconds. Remove to a bowl and set aside.
• For the dressing: Place the basil, pine nuts, vinegar, salt and pepper flakes in a food processor. With the motor running, drizzle in the olive oil to form a smooth dressing. Set aside.
• For the salad: In a bowl, toss the tomatoes, snap peas and arugula with the dressing.
• To assemble: Spread the whipped ricotta on the bottom of a platter. Place the dressed salad on top of the ricotta, leaving some of the cheese exposed around the edges. Serve.

Steps:

• Combine drained ricotta, heavy cream, powdered sugar, and honey in a glass or stainless steel mixing bowl.

Transfer mixture to a piping bag and place in the refrigerator while you prepare the serving glasses.
• Put amaretti cookies into a resealable plastic bag. Seal the bag and crush cookies into crumbs that are chunky and not too fine. Set aside 1 tablespoon of crumbs. Divide remaining crumbs evenly between five 6-ounce glasses.
• Pipe ricotta cream into each glass. Top with a sprinkle of the reserved cookie crumbs. Garnish each glass with 4 blackberries, 1 raspberry, 1 mint leaf, and a pinch of nutmeg. Refrigerate for 1 hour before serving.

Steps:

Using an electric mixer, beat the remaining 1/3 cup of cream, powdered sugar, and cinnamon in a large bowl until semi-firm peaks form. Fold the ricotta into the whipped cream. Place in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to stiffen and yield a creamier filling. (Can be prepared 4 hours ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
• Toss the strawberries, raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice in a medium bowl to combine. Let stand until juices form, tossing occasionally, about 15 minutes. Add the kiwi.
