Frozen Orange Grand Recipes

GRAND MARNIER FROZEN SOUFFLES

Steps:

• In top of a double boiler or a metal bowl over simmering water whisk egg yolks and sugar until blended. Stir in liqueur, water, orange juice and zest. Cook over low heat until mixture is just thick enough to coat a metal spoon and a thermometer reads at least 160°, about 10 minutes, stirring constantly but gently. Do not allow to boil. Immediately transfer to a bowl., Place bowl in an ice-water bath for a few minutes, stirring custard occasionally. Cool to room temperature. In a large bowl, beat cream until it begins to thicken. Add confectioners' sugar; beat until stiff peaks form. Gently fold into cooled custard mixture., Transfer to eight 4-oz. ramekins; smooth tops. Freeze until firm, at least 4 hours or overnight. Garnish with additional orange zest.

FROZEN ORANGE DESSERT

Steps:

• Wash and dry orange.
• Slice off the top third of the orange and replace it.
• Put the orange in the freezer until frozen. Take it out of the freezer at the start of your meal and it will be ready to eat with a spoon by the end of the meal. Garnish with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprig of fresh mint if desired.

FROZEN GRAND MARNIER SOUFFLE

Steps:

• Combine the eggs and granulated sugar in the top of a stainless steel double boiler and, being careful not to scramble the eggs, whisk over gentle heat until the mixture is golden in color and thick enough to coat the back of a spoon in ribbons. Remove from the heat and set the mixture aside to cool.
• While the egg mixture is cooling, prepare four 1/2 cup souffle dishes by cutting waxed paper long enough to encircle each souffle dish twice, and stand 3 to 4 inches above its top. Wrap the waxed paper snugly around the outside of the dish and seal the edges with transparent tape. Butter the inside of the dish with softened butter, then sprinkle with granulated sugar, tapping out any excess sugar onto a plate.
• Using an electric mixer, combine 1 cup of the heavy cream, confectioners sugar, and Grand Marnier, orange zest and whip into firm peaks. With a spatula, gently fold the whipped cream into the egg mixture. Pour the mixture into the buttered souffle dishes, filling them above the rim and into the area enclosed by the waxed paper.
• Place the souffles into the freezer, for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. When ready to serve, whip the remaining cream until soft peaks form, remove from the frozen souffle from the freezer, and carefully remove the waxed paper collar. Top with a dollop of whipped cream and several orange segments.

FROZEN ORANGES

Steps:

• Remove a"lid" from the top of each orange (retain the lid).
• Carefully remove all the pulp from the orange-I use a dessertspoon to do this.
• Allow the ice-cream to soften for a minute or two, then working quickly, stir through the liqueur and concentrate and fill the orange shells with this mix.
• Replace the lids.
• Freeze for at least 6 hours but preferably overnight.
• Remove from the freezer about 10 minutes before serving so they go frosty.
• These look good with a sprig of orange or lemon leaves poked into the top before serving*note-don't be tempted to use the pulp in place of the concentrate, the flavour is all wrong.
• Use the pulp for juicing or something.

ORANGE ICE CREAM

Steps:

• In a large bowl combine frozen orange juice concentrate, sugar, milk and zest. In a separate bowl whip cream and vanilla to stiff peaks. Gently fold whipped cream into orange mixture to combine.
• Pour into a loaf pan and freeze overnight.
• Scoop into decorative dishes and drizzle with Grand Marnier. Garnish with a sprig of mint and candied orange zest.

ORANGE GRANITA

Steps:

• Clean and wash the oranges. Cut off the top 1/4 of the oranges and shave a small slice off the bottom so it stands easily.
• Using a grapefruit knife, cut out the flesh of the oranges and place in a strainer set over a bowl. Be careful not to cut through the bottom. Stand the oranges on a cookie sheet and place in the freezer and freeze until solid.
• Press the flesh of the oranges through the strainer to extract all of the juice. You should end up with about 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 cups of orange juice. Add the extra 4 cups orange juice. Stir in sugar, a tablespoon at a time, until the mixture is of desired sweetness. Add the basil and orange-flavored liqueur and let sit for 15 minutes.
• Strain the mixture into a roasting pan or baking dish. The dish should be large enough so the liquid is not more than 1-inch deep. Freeze the mixture for 1 hour. Remove from the freezer and scrape with 2 forks to break up ice. Return to the freezer and freeze until solid, about 2 to 3 hours, scraping with forks every hour or so.
• When the granite is frozen, scoop it into the orange shells and serve immediately.

FROZEN GRAND MARNIER SOUFFLES

Steps:

• Cut out four 14x6-inch strips of foil. Fold each lengthwise in half. Wrap 1 around each of four 2/3-cup soufflé dishes. Secure with tape if necessary. Whisk first 4 ingredients in medium metal bowl. Set bowl over saucepan of simmering water (do not allow bottom of bowl to touch water) and whisk until thermometer registers 140°F for 3 consecutive minutes, about 10 minutes. Remove from over water. Using electric mixer, beat until cool, about 4 minutes.
• Using electric mixer fitted with clean dry beaters, beat cream in large bowl until stiff peaks form. Fold Grand Marnier mixture into cream.
• Divide soufflé mixture among prepared dishes. Freeze at least 4 hours or overnight.
• Remove foil collars from soufflés. Serve, passing Bittersweet Chocolate Sauce separately.
