Ingredients
Method
Techniques
- water
Line ramekins with plastic wrap, misting them with water first so it does not stick; set on a sheet pan.
Semifreddo: lining the molds
- sugar
- full fat Greek yogurt
- lemon zest
- lemon juice
- vanilla extract
- 1 tsp aged balsamic vinegar
- kosher salt
In a food processor, combine the strawberries, sugar, Greek yogurt, lemon zest and juice, vanilla, balsamic and a tiny pinch of kosher salt; pulse, then process on high to a very smooth puree.
- cream
Whisk ice-cold cream to soft peaks, a touch firmer than droopy.
Fill the ramekins to an eighth to a quarter inch from the top, tap to settle, cover and freeze about an hour and a half.
Freezing with a shortbread crust
- shortbread cookies
- melted butter
Crush shortbread cookies in a plastic bag with a rolling pin; mix the crumbs with still-warm melted butter.
Press the crumbs evenly over the semi-firm semifreddo and freeze at least two hours until frozen through.
- strawberries
- 2 spoons sugar
Toss diced strawberries with a couple spoons of sugar and leave on the counter about an hour to make a syrup.
Strawberries in syrup and unmolding
Warm each ramekin in the hands to unmold, unwrap onto a plate, top with the strawberries in syrup and let sit 10 to 15 minutes before eating.
