RASPBERRY AND RHUBARB SWISS ROLL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Coat a 15x10-inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray. Line pan with parchment paper. Coat paper with cooking spray.
• In a large bowl beat eggs, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and a dash salt with a mixer on medium for 2 minutes. Increase speed to medium-high; beat 8 to 10 minutes or until thick and light in color.
• Sift flour over egg mixture; fold in until no streaks of flour remain. Place 1/3 cup batter in a small bowl. Add enough food coloring to tint pink. Place pink batter in a small resealable plastic bag. Snip off one corner. Pipe small circles of batter in a random pattern over bottom of the prepared pan. Bake 2 minutes. Spread remaining batter over circles. Bake 7 to 8 minutes more or until cake is golden and springs back when lightly touched.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Invert cake onto prepared sheet. Carefully remove parchment from cake. Dust a kitchen towel with powdered sugar. Use parchment to flip cake, pattern side down, onto towel. Roll up cake and towel, starting from a short side. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
• For filling: In a medium saucepan combine raspberries, rhubarb, and remaining 2 tablespoons granulated sugar. Bring to boiling, stirring to break up berries; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, about 10 minutes or until fruit is softened. Remove from heat; let cool slightly. Place in a blender or food processor. Cover; blend until smooth. Press mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove seeds. Let fruit puree cool completely.
• In a medium bowl beat cream cheese with a mixer on medium until smooth. Slowly beat in cream until smooth. Add 2 tablespoons powdered sugar and the vanilla; beat until soft peaks form.
• Unroll cake. Spread with half the fruit puree. Spread cream mixture evenly over puree. Drizzle with remaining fruit puree. Using a knife, swirl mixtures together. Carefully reroll cake, using towel to help tightly roll. Place seam side down on a platter. Cover; chill at least 2 hours. Before serving, dust with powdered sugar. Serves 10.

Place pink batter in a small resealable plastic bag. Snip off one corner. Pipe small circles of batter in a random pattern over bottom of the prepared pan. The circles can all be relatively the same size, or all different sizes. Bake 2 minutes. Spread remaining batter over circles. Bake 8 minutes more or until cake is golden and springs back when lightly touched.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Invert cake onto prepared sheet. Carefully remove parchment from cake. Dust a kitchen towel liberally with powdered sugar. Use parchment to flip cake, pattern side down, onto towel. Roll up cake and towel, starting from a short side. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
• For the filling, in a medium saucepan combine raspberries, rhubarb, and remaining 2 tablespoons granulated sugar. Bring to boiling, stirring to break up berries. I use a potato masher to hasten the mashing. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, about 10 minutes or until fruit is very well softened. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly. Place in a blender or food processor. Cover and blend until smooth. Press mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove seeds. Let fruit puree cool completely.
• In a medium bowl beat cream cheese with a mixer on medium until smooth. Slowly beat in cream until smooth. Add 2 tablespoons powdered sugar and the vanilla. Beat until soft peaks form.

Place seam side down on a platter. Cover and chill at least 2 hours. Before serving, dust liberally with powdered sugar and garnish with additional loose raspberries if desired.

RHUBARB LEMON CAKE ROLL

Steps:

• Make filling:
• In a heavy saucepan cook rhubarb with sugar over moderate heat, stirring often, 20 to 25 minutes, or until rhubarb is a thick purée (about 1 1/2 cups). In a small bowl sprinkle gelatin over water and let soften 1 minute. Add gelatin to rhubarb and stir over low heat 1 minute, or until gelatin is dissolved. Transfer filling to a metal bowl set in a bowl of ice and cold water and stir occasionally until cooled and thickened.
• Make cake:
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Line the bottom of a greased jelly-roll pan, 15 1/2 by 10 1/2 by 1 inch, with foil. Grease foil and dust with flour, knocking out excess.
• In a bowl with an electric mixer beat egg yolks, 1/4 cup of the granulated sugar, zest, and vanilla until thick and pale and mixture forms a ribbon when beaters are lifted.
• In a large bowl with cleaned beaters beat egg whites with salt until they hold soft peaks. Beat in the remaining 1/4 cup granulated sugar gradually and beat whites until they hold stiff peaks.
• Stir one third of whites into yolk mixture to lighten it and fold in remaining whites gently but thoroughly. Sift flour and cornstarch over batter and fold in until batter is just combined.
• Spread batter evenly in prepared pan and bake in middle of oven 6 to 9 minutes, or until cake is lightly colored and springs back when pressed lightly.
• Dust a kitchen towel generously with confectioners' sugar and invert cake onto it. Remove foil carefully from cake. Starting with a long side, roll up cake loosely and gently in the towel and cool 30 minutes.
• Make lemon syrup:
• In a very small saucepan bring all ingredients to simmer, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Keep syrup warm.
• Assemble cake:
• Unroll cake carefully and brush with half of the warm syrup. Spread cake with filling and reroll cake carefully. Transfer cake to a platter, seam side down, and brush with remaining syrup. Chill roll, covered loosely, at least 2 hours or overnight.
• Make lemon glaze:
• In a small bowl stir together sugar and lemon juice to make a pourable glaze.
• Transfer glaze to a small resealable plastic bag and snip one corner to make a small hole. Trim ends of cake diagonally and squeeze glaze decoratively over cake.
• Serve cake, sliced crosswise, with White Chocolate Toasted Almond Semifreddo.
