Citrus Granite With Crayfish Skewer Food

CITRUS GRANITE WITH CRAYFISH SKEWER

Steps:

• Bring all ingredients to a boil, except Aquavit. Strain. Add 2 tablespoons Skane Auavit. Place into a glass baking dish. Put into freezer. Take out when solid. Chop up so it looks like crystal.
• To make skewers, start with a piece of cheese on the skewer and add 1 tail of crayfish, 1 piece of potato and then cheese. Repeat until skewer is full.

CHRISTMAS HAM WITH MUSTARD MIX

Steps:

• For the Ham: Put water in a pot and cover, bring to a boil. Take the foam off the top. Let simmer for 4 hours. Let ham sit in broth over night, covered in refrigerator.
• For the Mustard Mix: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Whisk ingredients well and brush the mix on the ham. Bake the ham for 30 minutes or until the mustard crust is golden brown.

MAPLE CITRUS GRANITE

Steps:

• In a saucepan, mix water, sugar, lemon juice, orange juice, maple syrup and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer without stirring until all the sugar has dissolved, about 3 to 5 minutes. Remove pot from the heat and let syrup cool completely. Add the lemon, orange zest, mint leaves, and pour into a shallow baking dish or plastic container and place in the freezer. (The 6 cup capacity shallow plastic containers with a lid that measure 6 inches by 10 inches by 2 inches deep, and which you can get in grocery stores would be ideal for the purpose.)
• Check after about 2 hours and stir the mixture. After about 4 hours, the mixture will have begun to set up, and you can score the surface by turning a spoon backwards and using the tip to scrape the frozen syrup into "ice curls." Repeat this scraping process periodically, every 2 hours or so, until all of the syrup is scraped into the consistency of water ice. Serve after 8 hours.
