Honey semifreddo

[sfllaw]

Here's a good summery pudding that I served at last night's dinner party. Yes, I know it isn't summer yet, but one can't always be patient.

oh man. that sounds incredibly tasty.

[sfllaw]

It is! I assure you.

[soufpawed]

can you provide some sort of level of difficulty indication?

[sfllaw]

It's quite easy.

There's very little that can go wrong. Don't scramble your eggs and don't whip your cream into butter. Then, just wait for it to freeze properly and you're laughing!

Sound very good, but very sweet too!

[sfllaw]

It's not really. I myself don't like cloyingly sweet desserts, which is why there's a moderate amount of honey.

I don't cook- but this makes me want to, somehow.

definitely winning me over through it's textual description. pictures?

Cooking is such a wonderful alchemy. I recommend that you take it up sometime.

I didn't take a photograph of mine, for various reasons, but I hope that this one will suffice.

I need to find someone with cooking skills, fast.

That looks super delicious.

Good luck in your quest!

Ooh, that sounds nice mate. :)

[sfllaw]

It was sinfully good!

I bet that would be fantastic as a panna cotta too. Yummy.

[sfllaw]

Well, panna cotta's just supposed to be chilled, not frozen. Sprinking fresh berries on top sounds like a marvellous idea, though.

Right, but since it's thickened with gelatin, you could still flavor the lot with the honey without compromising the texture of the completed product I should think. I will definitely be trying the semifreddo though. =)

Yes, substitution the sugar for honey would probably work well. Although you'll want to cut the amount of cream you use, as honey is wetter than sugar.
