REC: honey semifreddo. i haven't made this but it looks heavenly and sounds easy.
1 egg
4 egg yolks
100g best quality honey, plus 3 tbsps for serving
300ml double cream
25g pine nuts, toasted
line a 900g/1 litre loaf tim with clingfilm.
beat the egg and egg yolks with honey in a bowl, over a saucepan of gently simmering water, until the mixture is pale and thick. i use a wire balloon whisk for this, but if you feel like a bit of culinarily aided whirring, it will certainly be quicker with a hand-held electric whisk.
whip the double cream until thick, and then gently fold in the egg and honey mixture. pour into the prepared loaf tin, and cover carefully with clingfilm before putting it in the freezer for about 2-3 hours.
when it is ready to serve, turn out the semifreddo on to a suitably sized plate and drizzle this manilla-coloured log with honey, and sprinkle with the toasted pine nuts, before slicing. it thaws quickly as it stands, but that is part of its heavenly-textured charm. if you've got some dark, syrupy - indeed, honey-coloured - pudding wine to drink while you eat this, so much the better.
serves 6-8

It took me close to a day to make this but the resault was outstanding >>
I bought Baklave to my neighbours (They invited us for dinner, I brought the "dessert") and they LOVED it!
I think, if more people made Baklava for their neighbours, we wouldn't have so many neighbouring feuds (do you call it feuds?.
I know our neighbours loves us because they have already invited us to another dinner and when I offered to bring dessert they were cheering! smileys/wink.gif
