Grapefruit Zabaglione Over Mixed Berries Recipes

Steps:

• For the sponge: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Trace two 8-inch circles on 2 baking sheet-sized pieces of parchment with a marker. Flip them upside down onto 2 baking sheets. Set aside.
• Into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, add the egg yolks and whisk on high until lightened in color. Slowly add the vanilla and 1/4 cup of the granulated sugar and continue whisking until the mixture triples in volume and ribbons when the whisk is lifted from the batter, leaving a trail that takes a few seconds to dissolve back into the mixture, about 5 minutes. Sift the flour over the mixture and fold in to incorporate until there are no pockets of flour left.
• Transfer the egg yolk mixture to a small bowl and clean the mixing bowl and whisk very well. Add the egg whites to the bowl and mix on high until just foamy. Add the salt and then slowly add the remaining 3/4 cup granulated sugar, whisking on high until the meringue holds stiff, glossy peaks, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Transfer a scant cup of the meringue to the egg yolk mixture and fold to combine and lighten. Add the remaining whites to the egg yolk mixture and gently fold into the batter until no white streaks remain. Transfer the batter to a large pastry bag fitted with a medium open tip (Ateco 806) and pipe 4 circles onto the parchment using the traced circles as guides, starting from the middle and spiraling out. Sift an even layer of confectioners' sugar over the batter.
• Bake until the layers are gold brown and springy, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool completely, then trim the layers using an 8-inch cake pan as a guide and a sharp knife to make the layers perfectly round.
• For the filling: Whisk together the granulated sugar and cornstarch in a small bowl to combine. In a heatsafe bowl, whisk together the yolks, Marsala, salt and sugar-cornstarch mixture to combine. Place the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water, making sure the water does not touch the bottom of the bowl (otherwise you could scorch the eggs). Heat, whisking constantly, until the sugar is completely dissolved, the mixture thickens to the point that it coats the back of a wooden spoon and a candy thermometer inserted in the center reads 170 degrees F, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool to room temperature.
• Whip the cream in a bowl with a mixer to stiff peaks. Fold together the whipped cream and cooled egg yolk mixture (zabaglione). Transfer the cream filling to a pastry bag with a large open tip.
• For the trifle: Place a sponge round in the bottom of a trifle dish. Using a pastry brush, brush a generous layer of the Coffee Simple Syrup onto the sponge layer. Slice half of the strawberries in half and place them cut-side out around the sides of the trifle dish. Then place a few whole strawberries in the center. Pipe an even layer of the cream filling over the layer and sift an even layer of cocoa powder on top of that. Top with another sponge round, brush with the coffee syrup and then top evenly with the raspberries. Pipe the cream filling on top of the raspberries and dust with cocoa powder. Top with another sponge, brush with coffee syrup and spread with a thin even layer of the cream filling. Dust with cocoa powder and decorate the top with more cream filling and the remaining berries. (Reserve the remaining sponge for another use.)
• Put the coffee and sugar in a saucepan and heat, stirring, until the sugar is dissolved. Remove from the heat and let cool.

Steps:

• Toss 1 quart sliced strawberries with 1 tablespoon sugar in a bowl; let macerate 10 minutes. Put 5 egg yolks, 1 egg white, 3 tablespoons sugar, 1 tablespoon marsala wine, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla and a pinch of salt in a large heatproof bowl. Set the bowl over a saucepan of barely simmering water (do not let the bowl touch the water) and whisk vigorously over medium to medium-high heat until thick and creamy, 8 to 10 minutes. Immediately pour over the berries and serve with biscotti.

Steps:

• Place a grill pan over medium-high heat.
• In a medium bowl, toss the fruit in the sugar to coat. Grill over medium heat, until a golden crust begins to form on the fruit, about 3 to 4 minutes per side.
• In another medium bowl, mix together the mint, lemon juice, and simple syrup. Arrange the fruit on a serving platter, drizzle the mint syrup over top, and serve.
• In a saucepan, combine water and sugar over medium heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the sugar has dissolved. Take pan off heat and cool the syrup before using. Any extra cooled syrup can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
• Yield: 1/2 cup

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients in a medium bowl. Toss to combine. Serve in individual serving dishes.

Steps:

• In a steel bowl add the egg yolks, sugar, and coffee and whisk over a pot of boiling water, the bottom of the bowl not touching the water. Whisk the mixture until well blended and creamy. If the temperature becomes too hot, remove the mixing bowl from the boiling water. You do not want to cook the eggs you just want them to be silky, creamy, and frothy. Divide the berries among 4 glasses or serving bowls and drizzle the zabaglione over the fresh berries.

Steps:

• 1. In a large bowl, toss the berries together. Spoon the berries into 4-6 serving bowls and set aside.
• 2. Combine egg yolks, sugar, grapefruit juice, & salt in metal bowl. {I used a 2 quart metal mixing bowl} Whisk until color is a pale yellow.
• 3. Set the bowl on top of a saucepan of simmering water (Do NOT let the bottom of the bowl touch the water!) Using an electric hand mixer, mix 4-5 minutes until the mix has tripled in volume & is very thick and creamy. {you could do it by hand, but its a lot of mixing}
• 4. Spoon the warm zabaglione over the berries. Top with grapefruit zest. Serve immediately.
