Best Persimmon Raspberry And Pomegranate Eton Mess Recipes

RASPBERRY, POMEGRANATE & ROSE ETON MESS

Steps:

• Blitz most of the raspberries with the rosewater until smooth. Whisk the double cream and icing sugar to soft peaks. Fold through the puréed raspberries and pomegranate molasses. Layer the raspberry cream into dessert glasses with the crushed meringue nests and the remaining raspberries. Sprinkle over the pomegranate seeds along with some dried rose petals, if you like.

ETON MESS

Steps:

• Pour 3 packages of the raspberries, 1 1/2 cups of the sugar, and the lemon juice into a 10-inch saute pan. Crush the berries lightly with a fork and bring the mixture to a full boil over medium-high heat. Lower the heat and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is syrupy. Fold the remaining 3 packages of raspberries and the framboise into the hot mixture and refrigerate until very cold.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the cream, the remaining 1/4 cup of sugar, and the vanilla together on medium-high speed until it forms firm peaks.
• In decorative glasses, layer a spoonful of the whipped cream, a spoonful of the raspberry mixture, and then a few meringue pieces. Repeat once or twice, depending on the size of the glasses, until the glasses are full, ending with berries and a dollop of cream. Serve immediately or chill for an hour, until ready to serve.

PERSIMMON, RASPBERRY, AND POMEGRANATE ETON MESS

• Remove the leafy tops from the persimmons, slice the flesh, and add to a large bowl. Crush the raspberries lightly with a fork and add these to the bowl with the pomegranate seeds. Stir gently to combine.
• Beat cream in a chilled glass or metal bowl with an electric mixer until firm peaks form. Fold in meringue and stir gently.
• Spoon some of the fruit mixture into 4 decorative glasses. Layer the cream and meringue mixture on top, alternating with the fruit mixture. Make sure you reserve a little fruit for the top, then serve.
