Acacia, orange.
// Quick whole-wheat puff pastry, crème pâtissière infused with dried orange peel, whipped cream infused with fresh acacia flowers. Figuring there might be something to do with that orange you just ate, or with those flowers that smell so good. Trying to whip cream with no fridge. |
Rosemary, orange.
// More orange, fresh, this time with fresh rosemary; both used to infuse crème anglaise (custard) for these Îles Flottantes. Vanilla is not the only thing in the world… Orange does well infusing a long time: heat your milk and peel before bed and come back in the morning, the difference will be notable. (Leave the finished custard for a few hours too — continuous improvement.) |
Hot chocolate.
// With water, no sugar, and a good helping of thyme (lots of spice works too). Not hot chocolate in most people's books, but if you think of it as coffee, you can appreciate it. Very much so. |
