Caramelized Pineapple With Ginger Crème Anglaise Recipes

CARAMELIZED PINEAPPLE

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a medium to large saute pan over medium heat.
• Place the pineapple slices (no more than 1/2 inch thick) over the melted butter in the pan. Sprinkle with the brown sugar.
• Baste the pineapple by tilting the pan a bit to scoop some of the butter/sugar mixture and pouring it over the pineapple slices. Cook for about 3-4 mins per side.
• Continue to baste every so often to incorporate the flavor of the butter and brown sugar.
• When cooked, place slices on plates and drizzle some of the sauce it cooked in over top. Serve with vanilla ice cream to make EXTRA delicious! Pour some of the sauce over that as well. VERY hot, let cool a little before serving.
• Enjoy :).

SIMPLE CARAMELIZED PINEAPPLE

Steps:

• Slice pineapple into eight rings and cut each ring into 8 pieces.
• Warm butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. When butter begins to foam, add the pineapple and brown sugar (this is when you'd add the bananas if using that option).
• Cook, stirring frequently and make sure you are turning the pineapple chunks over while stirring. This should take about 4-5 minutes - just until the pineapple is brown and all the sugar is dissolved.
• Remove from heat and place into a shallow serving bowls and let cool 2-3 minutes.
• Place a scoop of ice cream/frozen yogurt on each serving and top with other toppings if desired. Or you can serve with just a dollop of freshly whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon.

Steps:

• Heat milk, zest, and ginger until hot and remove from heat. Let stand 25 minutes, then reheat.
• Whisk together egg, sugar, flour, and a pinch of salt until smooth. Pour milk through a sieve into a bowl, discarding solids. Gradually whisk hot milk into egg mixture, then transfer to a small saucepan.
• Cook over moderately low heat, stirring constantly, until thickened enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon and a thermometer registers 170°F, 3 to 5 minutes. (Do not let boil.) Pour custard through a fine sieve into a bowl and cover surface with plastic wrap to prevent a skin from forming. Chill until cold.
• Preheat broiler.
• Cut 8 (1/4-inch-thick) slices from middle of pineapple, reserving remainder for another use.
• Lightly oil a shallow heavy baking pan and arrange pineapple rounds in 1 layer. Sprinkle with sugar and broil 4 inches from heat, rotating pan if necessary for even browning, until caramelized, 7 to 8 minutes. Cool pineapple.
• Place 1 pineapple round on each dessert plate. Make a cut in each remaining round from edge to center. Working with 1 round at a time and holding round perpendicular to plate, gently twist cut edges away from each other and prop on top of pineapple on plate.
• Spoon crème anglaise around pineapple and sprinkle with crystallized ginger.
