Blueberry And Grand Marnier Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Combine first 4 ingredients and 2 tablespoons Grand Marnier in processor. Blend until smooth. Taste and add more Grand Marnier, if desired. Transfer mixture to bowl and refrigerate until cold, about one hour. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Keep refrigerated.)
• Divide fruit among 8 stemmed goblets. Top with sauce and serve.

Steps:

• Combine blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, and zest in a small pot and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook, stirring frequently, for 5 minutes.
• Stir water and cornstarch together in a small bowl and add slurry to the pot. Cook until the mixture thickens, about 30 seconds.
• Remove the pot from the burner and stir in orange liqueur. Pour coulis into a fine-mesh strainer and use the back of a spoon to force the liquid through. Serve hot or cold.

Steps:

• Sweet Crust: Preheat oven to 375F. In a bowl, cream butter and 1/2 cup sugar. Add flour and mix until dough forms. Shape dough into disc and chill in fridge for 15 minutes. Remove dough, place on parchment lined cutting board, dusted with pastry flour and roll to 1/8 inch thick. Grease mould so tart lifts easily. Transfer dough in 9 inch tart mould. Chill in fridge for 30 minutes. Bake on a tray until golden, approx. 25 minutes, rotating halfway through. Cool. Place chocolate in bowl. In saucepot, scald cream and pour over chocolate. Whisk until smooth. Pour into crust. Chill in fridge. Blueberry Sauce: Place blueberries, Grand Marnier, remaining sugar, zest and juice of orange in saucepot. Cook until blueberries are soft and sugar dissolves, cool. Puree and strain until smooth. Add lemon juice to taste. Slice tart and garnish with blueberry sauce. Add dark and white chocolate curls. Serve.
