Prosecco And Fruit Gelatin Food

PROSECCO AND SUMMER FRUIT TERRINE

Steps:

• Arrange fruit in a 1 1/2-quart glass, ceramic, or nonstick terrine or loaf pan.
• Sprinkle gelatin over 1/4 cup Prosecco in a small bowl and let stand 1 minute to soften. Bring 1 cup Prosecco to a boil with sugar, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and add gelatin mixture, stirring until dissolved. Stir in remaining 3/4 cup Prosecco and lemon juice, then transfer to a metal bowl set in a larger bowl of ice and cold water. Cool mixture, stirring occasionally, just to room temperature.
• Slowly pour mixture over fruit, then chill, covered, until firm, at least 6 hours.
• To unmold, dip pan in a larger pan of hot water 3 to 5 seconds to loosen. Invert a serving plate over terrine and invert terrine onto plate.

PROSECCO GELATIN PARFAIT

Steps:

• Put the Prosecco, 1/2 cup of the sugar and 1/2 cup water in a large saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes to burn off some of the alcohol. Remove from the heat and slowly whisk in the gelatin until completely dissolved. Pour into a 9 by 11-inch baking dish, cool to room temperature, then refrigerate to set up for at least 4 hours.
• In a large bowl, whip the cream to medium stiff peaks. In another bowl, whisk the remaining 1/4 cup sugar into the mascarpone until smooth. Add 1/3 of the whipped cream to the mascarpone to lighten, and then fold in the remaining whipped cream. Cut the Prosecco gelatin into 1 by 1-inch cubes and put a layer into the bottoms of 4 parfait glasses. Divide 1/2 of the cream mixture among the glasses on top of the gelatin, and then repeat with 2 more layers, ending with a final dollop of the cream. Serve with a long spoon and dig in!

RASPBERRY PROSECCO TULIP

Steps:

• Pour 2 cups water into a small saucepan and sprinkle the gelatin over the top. Let sit until the gelatin has absorbed liquid, about 1 minute. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring often with a wooden spoon to fully dissolve the gelatin. Pour the mixture into a bowl and add the sugar, stirring until dissolved. Let cool until just warm to the touch. Then add the prosecco, club soda and raspberry liqueur; stir until combined. Ladle 2 cups of the liquid into a Bundt pan. Sprinkle with the raspberries and refrigerate until pretty much set, 1 hour.
• Once the first layer is set, pour the remaining liquid over the top. Refrigerate for another 3 hours, until fully set.
• To unmold, dip the Bundt pan in a small amount of warm water for a few seconds, then cover the pan with a plate and invert so the mold releases onto the plate.
• Serve with more raspberries if desired.

PROSECCO AND FRUIT GELATIN

Steps:

• Whisk the gealtin and boiling water in a medium bowl until the gelatin is dissolved, about 2 minutes.
• Refrigerate until lukewarm, about 25 minutes.
• Stir in the Prosecco.
• Cover and refrigerate until the gelatin thickens but does not set, stirring occasionally, about 1 hour.
• Stir in the reaspberries(bubbles will form in the gealtin mixture).
• Divide the gelatin among 6 Champagne flutes or parfait glasses.
• Cover and refrigerate until the gelatin is set, at least 2 hours or/and up to 2 days.
• Dollop the mascarpone cheese atop each serving, then sprinkle with almonds.
• Serve with Amaretti cookies.

STRAWBERRY & PROSECCO JELLIES

Steps:

• Put 150ml water and the sugar in a large saucepan and heat gently until the sugar has completely dissolved. Add the strawberries, bring to the boil, then bubble for 5 mins without stirring, until the fruit has softened and the liquid is red, fragrant and syrupy.
• Strain the hot syrup through a sieve into a large jug (be careful not to push the strawberries through the sieve as the jelly will become cloudy), then leave to cool for a few mins. Discard the cooked strawberries. While the syrup is cooling, soak the gelatine in a bowl of cold water. When soft, squeeze the excess water from the gelatine sheets and stir into the syrup until completely melted.
• Divide the extra strawberries between 6 x 200-250ml Champagne flutes or stemmed glasses. Open the Prosecco, mix it briefly with the strawberry syrup, then pour into the glasses over the strawberries. Chill overnight, then serve.
