| Yield: 6 Tubes
Ingredients:
Rosewater Cream:
- 1 Tablespoon rosewater
- 1 cup heavy cream
Passion Fruit Curd:
- 6 egg yolks
- ½ cup sugar
- ½ cup passion fruit puree
- 1 pinch kosher salt
- 1 lemon, microplaned
- 2 Tablespoons lemon juice
- 4 Tablespoons unsalted butter
To Assemble:
- 4-inch X 1-inch acrylic tube
- 1 teaspoon of dehydrated apricots, finely diced
- 1 teaspoon of dehydrated cherries, finely diced
- 4 micro mint leaves tips, pink grapefruit mint if available
Method:
For the Rosewater Cream:
Combine Rosewater and whip cream and place in iSi foamer.
For the Passion Fruit Curd:
In the top of a double boiler, whisk egg yolks, sugar, hot
puree, salt, lemon rind and lemon juice. Cook over boiling
water for 8-10 minutes, stirring constantly, until mixture
thickens and will hold to the back of a spoon. Remove from
heat, cool 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Gradually stir
in butter, one tablespoon at a time. Cover the mixture and
refrigerate until ready to use.
To Assemble:
When ready to fill tubes, spray Rosewater Cream into a small
pastry bag and pipe into one end of tube, about an inch in.
Take the fine diced apricot and cherries, keeping tube horizontal,
and push them in with a skewer to fill the middle. Place mint
leaves, vibrant side up, with skewer to rest along the top
of the fruit. Fill the other end in the same way with passion
fruit curd, stopping at the diced fruit. Serve immediately,
making sure to maintain the tubes in a horizontal position.
