RASPBERRY ROSE POTS DE CREME

Steps:

• Special equipment: 4 (4 to 5-ounce) ramekins
• *Can be found at specialty gourmet markets
• Place an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a medium saucepan, heat the cream, milk, and rose water over medium-low heat until warm, about 4 minutes.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, sugar, and salt until smooth. Slowly whisk in the milk mixture. Stir in the mashed raspberries. Using a ladle, divide the mixture between 4 ramekins. Place the ramekins in an 8 by 8-inch baking pan. Pour enough hot water into the pan to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake for 30 minutes until the custard is almost set. Remove the pan from the oven and allow the ramekins to cool while still in the water, about 1 hour. Remove the ramekins from the water and refrigerate for at least 2 hours until set.
• Serve with a packet of carbonated candy.

RASPBERRY-ROSE WATER SOUP

• Pour the apricots and poaching liquid into a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate overnight to plump.
• For the Soup
• Put the raspberries in a food processor and process to a very smooth puree. Strain (discard the solids) and measure out 2 cups. Pour into a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat, skimming off any impurities that rise to the surface. Strain through a fine strainer, then through a strainer lined with several layers of cheesecloth.

• Add the syrup and gelatin to the raspberry puree and whisk for about 45 seconds. Stir in the rose water and taste. Add more syrup if necessary.
• Chill completely before serving.
• To Serve
• Spoon the soup into small dessert bowls or glasses. Cut the apricots into tiny dice and add to the soup with some fresh raspberries. Top with a scoop of the sorbet.

• You could float icy cold champagne on the soup instead of making the sorbet.

• In another bowl, with an electric mixer on med-high speed, beat the powdered sugar and butter together until light and fluffy, 2-3 minutes.
• Add in rose water and the eggs, one at a time, beating on low speed until combined after each addition.
• Add in the flour mixture in 3 additions, alternating with the milk in 2 additions, beating on low speed until just combined; scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
• Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
• Bake until lightly golden and a pick comes out clean, 15-18 minutes.
• Let the cupcakes cool in the pan on a wire rack for 5 minutes; transfer the cupcakes to the wire rack to cool completely, about 1 hour.
• Make the glaze--in a bowl, whisk the sugar, milk, rose water, and food coloring together until smooth; the glaze should be spreadable.
• If too thick, whisk in additional milk a few drops at a time.
• If too thin, whisk in additional sugar, one teaspoon at a time; use right away.
• Spoon the glaze over the cupcakes (the glazed cupcakes can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days; bring to room temperature before finishing).
• Top each cupcake with the fresh raspberries and sugared rose petals (if using), dividing evenly, and serve.

RASPBERRY SCONES WITH ROSE WATER GLAZE

Steps:

• SCONES:.
• Preheat oven to 400ºF. In a large mixing bowl, mix flour, sugar and baking powder. Add the butter. Either mix with a pastry blender or rub butter in with fingertips until mixture looks like fine crumbs.
• Gradually add 1 cup cream, mixing just until dough comes together (dough will appear somewhat shaggy). Turn dough out onto foil and pat it to 1/2" thick.
• With a 3" round or heart-shaped cookie cutter, cut out scones. Gather scraps and reshape to 1/2" thickness. Cut rest of scones, using as much of the dough as possible without re-shaping it.
• With a floured knife, cut scones horizontally to make a pocket for the jam (if you used a heart cutter, start at the bottom point of the heart to cut). Fill each cut scone with a generous teaspoon of raspberry jam (jam will be visible around the edges).
• Transfer filled scones to a baking sheet. Bake until golden brown (about 18 minutes). Transfer baked scones to a wire rack to cool just until slightly warm.
• GLAZE:.
• While scones are cooling, mix powdered sugar, rosewater and remaining 3 tbs of cream until smooth. Spread glaze over slightly warm scones. Serve immediately, or at room temperature.
