Strawberry Orange Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Working in batches, puree berries and juice in blender.
• Transfer to bowl.
• (Can be made one day ahead. Cover and chill.).

Steps:

• In a food processor, puree strawberries, Grand Marnier, sugar, and tangerine juice. Taste, adding more sugar, if desired. Chill before serving.

Steps:

• Make the batter: Combine the milk, water, eggs, flour, sugar, and salt in a blender. Blend on medium speed for 15 seconds, until the batter is smooth and lump-free. Scrape down the sides of the blender and pour in the melted butter. Blend it again for a few seconds just to incorporate the butter. Refrigerate the batter for 1 hour to let it rest.
• Make the filling: In a small bowl combine the ricotta cheese, cream cheese, egg, confectioners' sugar, and zest and blend until smooth. Chill until ready to use.
• Make the sauce: Combine the strawberries, sugar, water, cornstarch, and zest in a small pot over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and stir gently until the berries release their natural juices. The consistency should remain a bit chunky, it will thicken up when it cools down.
• Make the crepes: Put an 8-inch crepe pan or nonstick skillet over medium heat and brush with a little melted butter. Pour 1/4 cup batter into the pan and swirl it around so it covers the bottom evenly; pour back any excess. Cook until the crepe batter sets and the bottom is lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Use a heatproof rubber spatula to loosen the crepe and flip it. Cook it on the other side for about 1 minute. Slide them onto a plate and continue making the crepes until all the batter is used. Cover the stack with a towel to keep them from drying out. Makes about 10 crepes.
• Assembly: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Spoon 1/4 cup of the cheese filling along the lower third of the crepe. Fold the bottom edge away from you to just cover the filling; then fold the 2 sides in to the center. Roll the crepe away from you a couple of times ending with the seam side down. Put an ovenproof skillet over medium heat and brush with melted butter. Pan-fry the blintzes top side down until crisp and golden, about 2 to 3 minutes. Flip them over, transfer the pan to the oven, and bake for 10 minutes so the cheese mixture sets. Using a spatula, transfer the blintzes to serving plates. Spoon the strawberry sauce on top, dust with confectioners' sugar, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, heat the liqueur and orange juice over medium heat.
• Stir in 1 3/4 cups strawberries. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
• Stir in the sugar. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the berries soften. Remove from the heat.
• Stir in the remaining 1 3/4 cups strawberries. Serve hot or pour into a small airtight container and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Cinnamon Blueberry Sauce
• Substitute fresh blueberries for the strawberries and use 2 tablespoons of fresh orange juice. Add 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon when stirring in the sugar.

Steps:

• Toss the strawberries with the confectioners' sugar, liqueur, juices, and zest. Allow to marinate refrigerated for 30 minutes. Split the vanilla bean open with a knife and scrape out the seeds. Add the seeds to the whipping cream in an ice cold bowl and whip the cream to soft peaks just prior to serving. Serve one scoop of ice cream in a martini glass, spoon some marinated strawberries over the ice cream and serve with a dollop of whipped cream on top.;

Steps:

• Combine sugar, orange juice, cornstarch, and vanilla in a large sauce pan. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Add strawberries and rhubarb; reduce heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat and mash the cooked berries with a fork. Stir in food coloring, if using. Serve warm or cold.

Steps:

• Place strawberries and orange juice in blender or food processor container; cover. Blend until smooth.
• Pour into small saucepan. Stir in cornstarch until well blended.
• Cook on medium-high heat until thickened, stirring occasionally. Cool completely.

Steps:

• Grate zest from orange into a small bowl, then squeeze juice into bowl. Add butter, liqueur, and a pinch of salt.
• Heat sugar in a dry 10-inch heavy skillet over medium heat, stirring with a fork to heat sugar evenly, until it starts to melt, then stop stirring and cook, swirling skillet occasionally so sugar melts evenly, until it is dark amber. Remove from heat and immediately add orange-juice mixture. Boil, stirring, until caramel has dissolved and sauce is slightly thickened, about 2 minutes.
• Add strawberries and cook, stirring, until heated through, about 1 minute. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Hull strawberries, and if large, slice in half.
• Melt butter in a medium sized pan, add brown sugar and cook until sugar is just starting to melt.
• Add the orange juice and rind, and cook stirring until sugar has dissolved.
• Stir in the cream.
• Add the strawberries and warm through gently.
• (Take care not to overheat strawberries as they can otherwise become acidic in taste.) Warm brandy separately, light, and pour over strawberries.
• Serve over vanilla icecream or crepes.
