Hot Orange Dessert Soup Recipes

TRIPLE ORANGE DESSERT SOUP

Steps:

• Cut ends from all of the fruit, and then cut off the skin and bitter white pith with a paring knife. Cut the citrus segments out from the membrane and carefully put the segments in a shallow bowl, taking care to keep them whole. Squeeze the leftover peels and membranes over another bowl to get out any remaining juice.
• Gently stir sugar and salt into juice, pour over fruit, and divide into soup plates. Cover and refrigerate until chilled, about 1 to 2 hours.
• To serve, pour 1/4 cup Muscat over each serving.

HOT ORANGE DESSERT SOUP

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, combine orange juice, sugar, and cornstarch. Mis well, stirring until cornstarch is completely dissolved.
• Bring mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Continue to cook and stir, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from heat and add orange pieces and extracts. Mix well, spoon into small bowls and serve right away.

FROZEN SABAYON WITH BLOOD ORANGE SOUP

Steps:

• To make the frozen sabayon, in a large heatproof bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, wine, and the 1/2 cup (100 g) sugar. Set the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water and whisk vigorously and constantly. The mixture will first become frothy, then as you continue to whisk, it will turn thick and creamy. When the mixture holds its shape when you lift the whisk, remove the bowl from the heat. Set the bowl over a larger bowl of ice water and whisk gently for 1 minute. Leave the bowl over the ice water bath.
• In a stand mixer fitted with the whip attachment (or in a bowl by hand), whisk the cream on medium speed until it holds soft peaks. Fold the whipped cream into the sabayon along with the lemon juice. Transfer the mixture to a shallow container, cover, and freeze until firm, at least 8 hours, preferably overnight.
• To make the soup, in a small saucepan, warm 1/2 cup (125 ml) of the orange juice with the 1/4 cup (50 g) sugar, stirring until the sugar completely dissolves. Pour into a bowl and add the remaining orange juice and the rum or orange-flavored liqueur. Cover and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled.
• To serve, divide the blood orange segments among 8 shallow chilled serving bowls and ladle the chilled soup over the orange segments. Chop the mint leaves, scatter them over the bowls, and place a scoop of the frozen sabayon in the center of each.
• Sliced fresh pineapple, sliced kumquats, or any flavorful berries are nice additions to the soup.
• Be sure to chill the soup bowls well in advance of serving.
