Strawberry Semifreddo – Semi-Amazing

I used to say my students to never endeavor making classic desserts “healthier,” since your guests volition ever compare it to the unhealthy, as well as undoubtedly far superior master version. 

And even thus that’s precisely what I’ve done amongst this strawberry semifreddo, although, inward fairness, that happened accidentally piece I was trying to brand the recipe easier.

Traditionally, we’d brand an egg custard for the base, equally good equally laid upward downwards our strawberry puree to concentrate the flavors; as well as piece that does gain a fine, as well as much richer semifreddo, I wanted something simpler, that didn’t require whatever cooking. Besides saving time, as well as eggs, I intend nosotros likewise buy the farm a footling cleaner, to a greater extent than distinct berry flavor.

However, the toll nosotros pay for those skipped steps, as well as the modest total of sugar, is a less smoothen as well as creamy texture. An extra rich, classically made semifreddo tin laissez passer on notice move quite similar to H2O ice cream, whereas this volition move much firmer when frozen. That's why you lot actually gain withdraw to allow these warm upward for at to the lowest degree 10 or xv minutes earlier serving.

In the video, I described the texture equally something inward betwixt strawberry H2O ice cream as well as a strawberry popsicle, which reminds me, if you lot gain accept the molds, this mixture would move perfect frozen on a stick. Regardless of your delivery system, I actually gain promise you lot laissez passer on this a endeavor soon. Enjoy!
