Olive Garden Zuppa Inglese Recipes

Steps:

• Cook the bacon in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp, about 6 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate with a slotted spoon; set aside to drain. Add the Italian sausage to the drippings and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned and no longer pink, about 6 minutes. Transfer to the paper towel-lined plate to drain.
• Add the potatoes, garlic and onion to the drippings and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened, 6 to 8 minutes. Season with the crushed red pepper flakes and salt and pepper. Add the chicken broth, increase the heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the potatoes are tender and cooked through, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Add the kale, heavy cream, bacon and sausage and cook over medium heat until the kale is tender, another 5 minutes. Stir in the vinegar just before serving.

Steps:

• In a pot wish together very well egg yolks, sugar and corn flour until light.
• Add lemon zest and vanilla. Mix well.
• Add boiling milk.
• Now heat, stirring, until it barely reaches a boil, and cook for 30 seconds, stirring gently. Remove the pot from the fire. Don't overheat this in order to prevent sticking on the bottom of the pot (I make this step in the microwave stopping several times to stir the cream).
• Set aside until cold or slightly lukewarm.
• Now prepare the Syrup mixing well in a flat bowl all the ingredients until sugar melts.
• In a nice bowl (big enoght for everything) spread 1 third of the cream.

• Tranfer on the firs layer of cream. If you use the sponge cake; lay the half of the cake on the cream and spoon over this the half of the syrup.
• Cover gently with second third of the cream.
• Repat the step with the savoiardi (or sponge cake) and spoon the rest of the syrup over these.
• Cover with the remaing cream.
• Top with the siewed cocoa powder.
• Refrigerate at least 5 hours and enjoy.
