Verrines Of Limoncello Syllabub With Lemon Sugar And Raspberries Recipes

Steps:

• Grate the zest from the lemons using a Microplane grater, taking care to leave the pith behind. Place the zest in a 3-quart pitcher. Pour the vodka over it and stir. Cover with plastic wrap and set in a spot where it won't be disturbed, at room temperature, and let steep 1 week.
• Combine 3 1/2 cups water and the sugar in a large saucepan and cook over medium heat until the sugar dissolves, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes.
• Let cool completely, then pour the syrup into the pitcher with the zest and stir. Cover tightly again and let stand for 24 hours. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve and discard the solids. Pour into clean bottles with tight-fitting caps. Refrigerate until well chilled, at least 4 hours or up to 1 month.

Steps:

• Divide the raspberries between 10 shot glasses, topping each with a little of the extra limoncello.
• Grind the lemon zest with 3 tablespoons of the caster sugar in a mortar and pestle until fine.
• In a large bowl, whip the cream with 50ml limoncello until soft peaks form. Add half the zest mixture and the remaining sugar, then fold in with the yogurt or creme fraiche. Spoon the cream over the raspberries and sprinkle with remaining lemon sugar to serve. Garnish with fresh mint and lemon verbena leaves.

Steps:

• Rinse and drain raspberries, gently pat dry and set aside.
• In a small bowl, stir together the lemon zest and the lemon curd. Stir in the Limoncello liqueur, whisking briskly until combined.
• In a separate bowl, whip the cream until soft peaks form. Beat in the lemon extract. Fold in the mascarpone and stir gently; combine well.
• In 8 large shot-glasses or ramekins, evenly and attractively layer the lemon curd mixture and the mascarpone mousse (use a pastry bag fitted with a plain tip, if desired).
• Top with the fresh berries, and garnish with a mint leaf or sprig of lemon verbena.
• Chill until serving time.

Steps:

• Divide the raspberries between six small glasses.
• Finely grate the zest of one orange and squeeze the juice of both into a large bowl. Stir in the Grand Marnier and sugar.
• Gradually whisk in the cream until it just holds its shape in soft folds. Spoon the mixture over the raspberries and serve with a soft amaretti biscuit on the side.

Steps:

• Whisk first 5 ingredients in medium bowl until sugar dissolves. Beat cream in large bowl to stiff peaks. Fold whipped cream into wine mixture. Divide mixture among 8 wineglasses. Cover and refrigerate overnight (syllabub mixture will separate). Sprinkle with berries and serve.

Steps:

• Mix the lemon juice, most of the zest and the limoncello together.
• Pour the cream into a large bowl and whip with the sugar.
• Drizzle in the lemon mixture and whisk until incorporated.
• Divide between 4 glass dishes and refrigerate for at least an hour.
