—–Cappuccino Ice Cream—–
2 Cups Heavy Cream
2 Cups Half And Half
2/3 Cup Granulated Sugar — divided
1/3 Cup Espresso Beans — freshly ground
2 Cinnamon Sticks — broken in half
2 Tablespoons Unsweetened Cocoa Powder — (alkalized)
8 Large Egg Yolks
1 Pinch Salt
1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
—–Assembly—–
1 Cup Heavy Cream
1 Tablespoon Granulated Sugar
1/2 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
4 Cups Milk
1/2 Cup Malt Powder
1 Cup Chocolate Syrup — (fx. Fox’s U-Bet)
—–Garnish—–
Chocolate Shavings
Dark Chocolate Espresso Beans

Make the cappuccino ice cream:

1. In a medium saucepan, heat the cream, half-and-half, 1/3 cup of
the granulated sugar, espresso, and cinnamon over medium heat,
stirring constantly, until the sugar is dissolved. Increase the
heat to high and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Place the
cocoa powder in a small bowl. Add 2 to 3 tablespoons of the hot
cream mixture to the cocoa and stir well to form a smooth paste.
Return the cocoa powder mixture to the saucepan and whisk until
smooth. Remove the saucepan from the heat, cover, and allow to
infuse for 10 minutes.

2. In a medium bowl, whisk the egg yolks, the remaining 1/3 cup
sugar, and salt until blended.

3. Strain the hot cream mixture through a cheesecloth-lined sieve
into a medium, heavy saucepan. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
Remove the saucepan from the heat. Gradually whisk about 1
cup of the hot cream mixture into the beaten egg yolks until blended.
Return this mixture to the saucepan. Continue cooking over
medium-low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, for 2 to
4 minutes, or until the custard has thickened slightly. It is done
when you can run your finger down the back of the custard-coated
spoon and a path remains for several seconds. Do not allow the
custard to boil.

4. Remove the pan from the heat and immediately strain through a
fine-meshed sieve into a stainless steel bowl. Place the bowl over
a larger bowl of ice water and stir the custard for 5 to 10
minutes, or until cool. Stir in the vanilla. Remove the bowl of
custard from the bowl of ice water. Cover the surface of the
custard with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or
overnight until very cold.

5. Scrape the chilled custard into the container of an ice cream
maker and freeze according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Transfer the ice cream to a medium bowl. Cover the surface of
the ice cream with plastic wrap and cover the bowl tightly with
aluminum foil. Freeze the ice cream overnight.

Assemble the cappuccino malt floats:

1. In a chilled 4 1/2-quart bowl of a heavy-duty electric mixer
with the wire whip attachment, set at medium-high speed, beat
the cream, sugar, and vanilla until it forms slightly stiff peaks.
Fill a pastry bag fitted with a star tip (such as Ateco #6) with
the cream and refrigerate until ready to use.

2. In a blender, combine 1 cup milk, 2 tablespoons malt powder, and
1/4 cup chocolate syrup with 2 scoops of the cappuccino ice cream.
Blend at high speed for 45 seconds, until the mixture is smooth.
Pour the malt mixture into a tall 16-ounce glass.

3. Place a scoop of cappuccino ice cream on the side of the glass.
Pipe a large rosette of whipped cream next to the ice cream.
Garnish the malt float with chocolate shavings and a chocolate
espresso bean. Repeat this assembly to make 3 more malt floats.
Serve immediately.

4 servings.

PREPARATION: 1 hour plus chilling and freezing times. Allow the
ice cream to freeze overnight.

Title: CHOCOLATE BALLS WITH CHERRY CENTERS
Categories: Candies
Yield: 6 servings

50 Whole candied cherries
3/4 c Cherry brandy (more may be
-necessary)
1/2 lb Sweet milk chocolate, broken
-into pieces
1/4 lb Unsweetened baking
-chocolate, broken into
-pieces
1 1/3 c Powdered sugar
7/8 c Butter, softened
3 tb Unsweetened cocoa
Powdered sugar
Unsweetened cocoa

Soak the cherries in the brandy overnight or longer.
Drain the cherries, reserve the brandy.

Cream the butter and sugar in a mixer. In a double
boiler, melt the chocolates. Spoon the melted
chocolate, spoon by spoon, into the butter and sugar
mixture and mix thoroughly by hand.

Add reserved brandy to sugar and chocolate mixture and
stir by hand until all is absorbed. Add 3 T. cocoa
and mix by hand.

Put mixture in the freezer and thoroughly chill.
Prepare a surface to assemble the balls. Mix equal
amounts of cocoa and powdered sugar, about 1/3 cup
each. On a piece of waxed paper, heavily dust with
the cocoa powdered sugar mixture. Remove the
chocolate from the freezer when it is chilled and
stiff. For each cherry, spoon out a heaping teaspoon
of the chocolate and drop on dusted paper. Dip your
fingers into the cocoa/sugar mixture and flatten
chocolate to a small pancake. Place a cherry in the
center and fold chocolate around it. Gently roll the
ball between your palms to form and finish by rolling
the ball in the cocoa/sugar mixture. Repeat for each
cherry. If the chocolate mixture softens, return to
the freezer to firm up.

Place the completed balls in a container with a lid
and store in the frig.

These balls are dense and heavy with a rich chocolate
flavor. For a lighter flavor, I suggest you omit the
unsweetened baking chocolate and add 1/4 lb. more milk
chocolate.

Licking your fingers is not permitted during the
assembly, but manditory after you are done. (grin)

Title: CHINESE HONEY GOOSE
Categories: Poultry, Foreign, Personal
Yield: 6 servings

1 Whole goose

MMMMM——————–HONEY SYRUP MIXTURE————————-
1 Lemon
4 c Water
3 tb Honey
3 tb Dark soy sauce
2/3 c Rice wine or dry sherry

IF THE GOOSE IS FROZEN, thaw it thoroughly. Rinse the goose well and
blot it completely dry with paper towels. Insert a meat hook near the
neck. Using a sharp knife, cut the lemon into 1/4-inch slices,
leaving the rind on. Combine the lemon slices with the rest of the
honey syrup ingredients in a large pot and bring the mixture to a
boil. Turn the heat to low and simmer for about 20 minutes. Using a
large ladle or spoon, pour this mixture over the goose several times,
as if to bathe it, until all of the skin is completely coated with
the mixture. Hang the goose in a cool, well-ventilated place to dry
for 4-or-5 hours, or hang it in front of a cold fan for about 3
hours–in either case, the longer the better. Once the goose has
dried, the surface of the skin will feel like parchment. Preheat the
oven to 475F. Meanwhile, place the goose on a rack in a roasting pan,
breast side up. Put 2/3 cup of water into the roasting pan. Now put
the goose into the oven and roast it for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to
350F and continue to roast for 1 hour and 10 minutes. Remove the
goose from the oven and let it sit for at least 10 minutes before you
carve it. Using a cleaver or sharp knife, cut the skin and meat into
pieces and arrange them on a warm platter.
