HONEY SEMIFREDDO

Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii,

i am back after a lonnng time. its nothing like avoiding friends, just because was too busy with my new job & collection launch. since Durga Puja is coming, so people have started getting their dresses made. And trust me, i am super happy about it. i realised a couple of days back, sitting back idle at home, that i am workaholic. trust me, i am the happiest now, since i have something to do, and i seriously don't mind the the long journey from home to office. cooking hasn't taken a backseat as such, in this hectic lifestyle, but i feel too tired & lazy to post.
Kolkata, though having rain, but is still pretty hot!! and heat turns me down. this sunday while at home, enjoying my weekend, i decided to gorge in some thing cold. so Semi Freddo was an obvious choice. not only because itss damn tasty, but also because it hardly takes around 10 minutes to make. and trust me, you will have an audience asking for more. as for me, i can go to any length to have a good semi-freddo. with one spoonful, in mouth, it feels like heaven.
semi-freddo as sum of you know, is kind of an Italian desert. not only, it is a tasty desert. you can call it an ice-cream cake or a custard, but whatever you choose to call it, it will always test great. its addictive. it is. my mom learnt this recipe from me, and she was surprised that cooking can be so easier at times, and in return you get such complimentary looks. here goes the recipe:

INGREDIANTS:

  •  cream                                       300ml
  •  egg                                           1nos.
  •  egg yolks                                  4nos.
  •  honey                                       100gm+ 1 tbsp for drizzling
  •  raisins+nuts                              50 gms each (optional)
  • loaf tin
  • clean fling
  • double boiler


METHOD:



  • line your loaf tin with a double layer of clean fling.
  • Whip your cream well. i had used an electronic hand beater to beat it for 5mins.
  • Now put  the honey, egg & yolks in a bowl. Put it on a double boiler & keep stirring it till it changes colour and mixes well.( do be careful, or else the mixture might end up looking like an egg frittata.)
  • Now put in the egg mixture in the whipped cream & fold in well gently.
  • Put in the mixture in the loaf tin & cover with another clean fling and put it in the refrigerator for about 3-5 hours.
  • After that invert it on a plate and remove the clean fling from all sides.
  • drizzle with honey and top with raisins and nuts. And immediately serve.


this melts in your mouth immediately. but it also starts melting as soon as you bring it out of the freezer. you can even come up with some interesting toppings and  serve.
try it. will be back with something even more tastier.... soon!!!!!!!!!!!!
