Grilled Peaches With Wine Syrup Two Ways Food

GRILLED PEACHES WITH WINE SYRUP TWO WAYS

Steps:

• For the wine syrup: Combine the wine, peach nectar, brandy, 1/4 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons honey, cinnamon sticks and vanilla bean in a large high-sided saute pan and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened to a syrup, about 10 minutes. Strain.
• For the peaches: Preheat a gas grill to medium-high.
• Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Brush the cut sides of the peaches with butter and sprinkle with remaining 2 tablespoons sugar and some cinnamon. Grill cut-side down and cook until slightly caramelized, 2 to 3 minutes
• For the peach chutney: Coarsely chop the peaches and toss with another pinch cinnamon, a few tablespoons of the wine syrup, some torn mint leaves, a splash of canola oil and salt and pepper. Goes great with pork.
• For the grilled peach dessert: Place the peaches cut-side up on a platter. Spoon some creme fraiche in the center of each, drizzle over some wine syrup, a bit of honey and garnish with mint leaves. Serve warm or at room temperature.

GRILLED PEACHES WITH MOONSHINE SYRUP AND SORGHUM YOGURT

Steps:

• Preheat a grill pan to medium-high heat. Brush the cut sides of the peaches with sorghum and sprinkle with salt. Melt the butter in the hot grill pan, then lay the peaches cut-side down in the pan to start charring. Be careful not to move them, because the sugar in the sorghum will create beautiful grill marks. Cook until the edges of the peaches are bubbling and caramelized, about 2 minutes, then turn 90 degrees and cook 1 to 2 more minutes to create diamond grill marks. Remove the peaches and set aside.
• Mix together the yogurt and sorghum in a bowl.
• Make the moonshine syrup: Combine the sugar, moonshine, vanilla, lemon zest and 1 cup water in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• To serve, divide the peaches among bowls, spoon in the syrup and then place a large dollop of yogurt on top.

PESHE AL VINO - PEACHES AND WINE

Steps:

• Peel the peaches, pit them, and slice into bite-size wedges (you should have about 4 cups). Place in a large bowl and cover with the wine. Sprinkle the sugar on top and gently stir. Cover and leave at room temperature for 3 to 4 hours before serving.

GRILLED PEACHES WITH PROSCIUTTO AND BALSAMIC

Steps:

• Put the vinegar in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over high heat. Cook until thick and syrupy, stir in the honey and season with salt and pepper, if using. Let cool slightly.
• Brush the peach halves with oil and season with salt and pepper, if using. Place on the grill, cut side down and grill until golden brown. Turn over and grill for 1 minute longer. Remove the peaches from the grill and drizzle with the balsamic. Wrap or stuff each half with a slice of the prosciutto. Sprinkle the basil over the top and drizzle with olive oil.

GRILLED PEACHES WITH CINNAMON SUGAR BUTTER

Steps:

• In a small bowl add the butter and stir until smooth. Add the cinnamon sugar, granulated sugar and salt and mix until combined.
• Heat grill to high. Brush peaches with oil and grill until golden brown and just cooked through. Top each with a few teaspoons of the butter and garnish with mint leaves.

GRILLED PEACHES IN WINE

Steps:

• Slice peaches in half lengthwise and remove pits. Place peach halves flat side down on pre-heated grill, about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from grill when grill marks appear and allow to cool. Slice into wedges and serve in a glass of red or white wine.

GRILLED PEACHES WITH BLACK PEPPER AND BASIL-LIME SYRUP

Steps:

• In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the 1/2 cup brown sugar with the water and stir until dissolved. Turn off the heat and add the lime juice and basil leaves. Let stand for at least 15 minutes or up to 1 hour, then discard the basil leaves.
• Light a grill or preheat a grill pan over medium heat; lightly oil the grates.
• Lightly sprinkle the peaches with brown sugar and grill cut side down until dark brown grill marks form, about 2 minutes per cut side. Transfer the peaches to bowls and season with a little black pepper. Spoon some of the syrup on top, sprinkle with basil leaves and serve.
