FRUIT CUSTARD RECIPE

Steps:

• Rinse the fruits thoroughly and chill them in the fridge. Refrigerating after chopping will let out juices from the cut fruits making the custard runny.
• Heat 2½ cups milk in a wide heavy bottom pan or pot. Add sugar and stir until it dissolves.
• Meanwhile add custard powder to a small cup and stir it with ¼ cup milk (warm or at room temperature). The mixture has to be smooth without any lumps.
• When the milk turns hot (not boiling), pour 2 tbsp of the custard mix to the hot milk. Whisk well to incorporate it with the milk.
• Repeat adding another 2 tablespoons custard mixture to the milk and whisk well. This way incorporate all of the custard mixture to the milk in 3 batches, whisking after each addition.
• You may taste test it at this stage and add more sugar if needed.
• Keep stirring and cook on a low to medium heat until the custard turns thick. The custard must coat the back of the spoon well but must be yet of runny consistency. (check video)
• Take it off the heat and whisk it well to make it super smooth. Cover immediately. Cool this completely and chill it in the fridge.
• Whisk the custard well before serving. This ensures even and smooth fruit custard.
• Peel and chop the fruits to bite size. Add them to serving bowl or individual serving cups.
• Pour the custard over the fruits and gently mix. Serve fruit custard immediately.

BERRIES WITH ITALIAN CUSTARD

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine the berries with 1 tablespoon port and 1 tablespoon sugar. Allow to sit and macerate while you prepare the zabaione.

ROAST GOOSE WITH JUNIPER BERRY SAUCE AND CHESTNUT CUSTARD

Steps:

• Place goose in an oiled roasting pan. Season goose, inside and out with salt and pepper. Inside goose, place thyme, rosemary, bay leaves, half a head of garlic and juniper berries. Roast in a preheated 350 degree oven for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, depending on size of goose (14 minutes per pound). During that time, peel and cut the vegetables in cubes of 1 to 1 1/2 inches, and set aside. Baste the goose with its own fat every 10 minutes. 45 minutes before the goose is done, remove the excess fat from the pan and add the vegetables and half a head of garlic.
• Roast the bones in a 350 degree oven for 35 minutes. When half done, add the vegetables and roast together. In the last 5 minutes, add the tomato paste. Remove from the oven and transfer to pot and cover with water (or chicken stock if available). De-glaze, with red wine, the pan in which the bones had been roasted, reduce 50 percent and add to the stock. Crush the juniper berries on a cutting board with the bottom of a sauce pot, add to the stock with the thyme, rosemary, bay leaf and garlic, simmer 1 1/2 hours. Strain into a saucepan and reduce gravy to a fine chinois consistency (when it coats the back of a spoon). Finish by whisking in butter, add gin, salt and pepper and reserve in a hot bain marie (double boiler).
• Mix all the ingredients, starting with the cream and finishing with diced chestnuts. Butter 8 small dariol molds and divide the mixture between them.

BLACKBERRY CRISP WITH CARDAMOM CUSTARD SAUCE

Steps:

• Make the topping: Put flour, sugar, butter and ground cardamom in a medium bowl. Using your fingertips, work ingredients together until the mixture resembles wet sand with a few stray pebbles. (The topping can be made in advance and refrigerated for 1 week or frozen for up to 2 months.)
• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Toss the blackberries with ½ cup/100 grams sugar and transfer the mixture to an 8-inch square baking dish.
• Sprinkle topping over berries loosely, and transfer to the oven. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, until the topping is well browned. Let cool for 10 minutes, or serve at room temperature.
• As the crisp bakes, make the custard sauce: Put half-and-half and sugar in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the cardamom seeds and bring to just under a simmer, stirring. Put yolks in a bowl and whisk until smooth, then whisk in 1 cup of hot half-and-half mixture. Pour the contents of the bowl back into the saucepan and cook, whisking, on a very low flame until the mixture barely thickens, about 5 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve. Serve sauce hot, or let cool and refrigerate until ready to use. (Sauce can be made up to 2 days in advance.)
• To serve, scoop large spoonfuls of crisp into individual shallow bowls. Ladle the sauce around each serving or pass the sauce at the table.
