Orange Segments With Berries And Balsamic Cream Recipes

SPICY BALSAMIC BASIL ORANGE MARMALADE

Steps:

• 1. Combine all the ingredients in a large stock pot and bring to a simmer. Lower heat and simmer for 1 hour, or until a thick gel consistency is reached. Turn off the heat and allow to cool completely.
• 2. Remove half of the marmalade and pulse it in a blender or food processor, but do not puree. Add the mixture back into the pot and combine. Store in an airtight container.

OLIVE OIL SORBETTO WITH BERRIES AND BALSAMIC

Steps:

• Combine the sugar, salt and basil with 1 cup water in a small saucepan and place over medium heat. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally to help dissolve the sugar. Simmer gently for 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove the basil from the simple syrup and discard. Whisk the egg white in a medium bowl until frothy. Whisk the hot syrup into the beaten egg white. Whisk in the lemon juice and olive oil. Switch to a rubber spatula and stir occasionally for 5 minutes or until just warm to the touch. Refrigerate until completely chilled, stirring occasionally, about 2 hours.
• To freeze the sorbetto, use a handheld blender to emulsify the base mixture. When the base looks creamy and smooth, pour it directly into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's directions, about 15 minutes. When the mixture is the consistency of a thick milkshake (do not overprocess or it will separate), transfer to an airtight container and freeze until ready to serve, at least 3 hours and up to overnight.
• To serve, scoop the sorbetto into a small coupe or bowl, sprinkle with berries and drizzle with balsamic.

WALNUT ROSEMARY TART WITH ORANGE CHANTILLY CREAM

Steps:

• Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• For the tart shell: In the bowl of a food processor, pulse the walnuts, rosemary and 2 tablespoons of the flour until the nuts are finely ground. Add the granulated sugar, salt and remaining 3/4 cup flour and pulse to blend. Add the butter and pulse until the dough resembles coarse sand. Pour in 1 tablespoon cold water and pulse until the dough just comes together in a ball. Shape the dough into a disc, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate until the dough is firm, about 30 minutes.
• Place the dough between 2 sheets of parchment paper and roll it out until it is 1/4 inch thick and 10 inches in diameter. Transfer the dough to a 9-inch tart pan and press the dough into the bottom and up the sides of the pan, trimming away any excess dough. Prick the dough with a fork, place the tart pan on a baking sheet and bake until light brown, about 20 minutes. Set aside while you make the filling.
• For the tart filling: Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until it is golden brown and fragrant, about 3 minutes. In a large bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, honey, cream, vanilla and salt. Add the browned butter, walnuts and rosemary and stir to combine.
• Pour the filling into the tart shell and place on a baking sheet. Bake until the filling is bubbly and thick, about 35 minutes. If the edges of the crust begin to get too dark, cover the tart loosely with foil. Transfer the tart to a wire rack to cool.
• For the orange chantilly cream: In the bowl of a stand mixer with a whisk attachment, combine the cream, granulated sugar and orange zest and juice and beat until soft peaks form, about 2 minutes.
• To serve, dust the tart with powdered sugar and top each slice with a dollop of the cream.

ORANGE, WALNUT, GORGONZOLA AND MIXED GREENS SALAD WITH FRESH CITRUS VINAIGRETTE

• In a large jar with a lid, mix the olive oil, vegetable oil, orange juice, sugar, vinegar, mustard, oregano, and pepper. Seal jar, and shake to mix.
