Best 8 Chilled Pineapple Champagne Soup Recipes

CHILLED MANGO AND PINEAPPLE SOUP

Steps:

• Blend mangoes, pineapple, water, sugar, and lime juice in a blender until smooth; strain through a fine-mesh strainer. Chill soup in the refrigerator for 2 hours.

CHILLED PINEAPPLE SOUP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180°C (approximately 350°F). Remove the stalk from the pineapple and roast for 1 hour. Remove from the oven and let cool.
• Melt the sugar in a pan, and caramelize until golden brown. Add 250 ml (approximately 8 ounces) of water, being careful not to splash the mixture. Remove from the heat and let cool.
• Halve the pineapple and remove the fruit. Slit the vanilla pod lengthwise, and scrape out the seeds. Puree the pineapple with the seeds. Add the puree and the lemon zest to the syrup and simmer for 10 minutes. Pass through a fine strainer, let cool, and chill in the refrigerator.
• Divide into bowls, and garnish with a slice of canned pineapple.

CHAMPAGNE PEACH AND MINT SOUP

Steps:

• Combine Champagne, peaches, salt, large sprigs of mint, and white pepper in a large saucepan or deep pot. Cook for 20 minutes over medium heat to infuse flavors. Remove from heat and remove large mint sprigs. Adjust salt and white pepper, if needed. Blend with an immersion blender and chill. Serve in demitasse cups garnished with 1/2 teaspoon creme fraiche and small mint sprigs.

CHILLED PINEAPPLE CHAMPAGNE SOUP

Steps:

• Peel and core pineapples. Set fruit aside and place peel and cores in a large heavy saucepan with 1 1/2 cups water. Bring to a boil, cover and cook over moderate heat for 15 minutes. Strain liquid through cheesecloth, discard solids and return pineapple liquid to saucepan.
• Combine granulated sugar with remaining 2/3 cup water. Bring to a boil over medium heat and cook briefly, approximately 5 minutes, just long enough to make a thin syrup.
• Cut pineapple in chunks, reserving a few slivers for garnish. Sprinkle confectioners' sugar over reserved pieces and set aside in refrigerator.
• Place remaining pineapple in saucepan together with liquid from the cooked peel and the sugar syrup. Add cinnamon if desired, especially if the pineapples are not very flavorful. Place over moderate heat, cover and cook for approximately 30 minutes, or until fruit is soft.
• In a food processor, puree the pineapple and liquid in batches. Coarsely chop the mint leaves and puree with pineapple. Taste and add brandy and salt if desired. Cool slightly, cover and place in refrigerator to chill overnight.
• The next day, stir in white wine and let sit for several hours. About 30 minutes before serving, delicately stir in the chilled Champagne. Serve in bowls set over iced liners. Float pineapple garnish decorated with mint leaves.

CHILLED PEAR AND PINEAPPLE SOUP

Steps:

• In a food processor, combine the pineapple and pear chunks. Puree until smooth and strain through a fine sieve into a bowl. Add the tea and wine and mix. Add honey and lemon juice a little bit at a time to taste. Chill until very cold. Serve in bowls or martini glasses, garnishing each bowl with 2 pineapple leaves, sticking up like rabbit ears.

CHAMPAGNE PINEAPPLE COCKTAIL

Steps:

• In a champagne flute combine the pineapple juice and the champagne and stir the cocktail once.

CHILLED PINEAPPLE MOUSSE WITH PISTACHIOS

Steps:

• Make the crust: Place pistachios in a food processor, and pulse until coarsely chopped. Reserve 1/4 cup, and place in a small bowl. Continue to pulse remaining pistachios until fine crumbs form, and transfer to a large bowl. Pulse graham crackers until large crumbs form (about 1 1/3 cups). Add graham cracker crumbs to pistachios and mix well. Stir in granulated sugar, salt, and butter until well combined. Pat crumb mixture into bottom of an 8-cup, 3- to 4-inch-deep souffle dish. Crust should be about 1 inch thick.
• Make the mousse: Make a collar for the dish by folding a 24-inch-long piece of parchment into a quadruple-thick strip about 4 inches wide. Wrap very tightly around rim of dish, and secure with tape, making sure there are no gaps between dish and parchment. The collar should come at least 3 inches above the top of dish. Place dish in refrigerator.
• Drain pineapple in a sieve, reserving syrup. You will need a scant 4 cups fruit and 2 3/4 cups syrup. (Add enough canned pineapple juice to syrup to reach that amount.) Pulse 1 cup pineapple chunks in a food processor until a coarse puree forms.
• Place gelatin in a medium bowl. Pour 1 cup pineapple syrup over gelatin, and let stand until softened, about 5 minutes. Pour boiling water over gelatin, and stir until smooth. Stir in lemon zest and juice, and the remaining 1 3/4 cups pineapple syrup.
• Prepare an ice-water bath. Beat cream cheese with a mixer until soft and smooth, about 3 minutes. Beat in sour cream and 1 cup confectioners' sugar until smooth. Slowly whisk in gelatin mixture until incorporated. Fold in pineapple chunks and puree.
• Whisk cream with remaining 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar until medium-soft peaks form. Fold into cream cheese mixture. Place bowl in ice-water bath. Stir until slightly thickened, but still pourable, and pineapple chunks no longer fall to the bottom, about 10 minutes. Using a rubber spatula, carefully scrape the bowl while stirring to chill mousse evenly.
• Place dish on a baking sheet, and pour mousse mixture into the dish, spooning in pineapple chunks. Gently smooth the top. Refrigerate until set, at least 2 hours (or overnight).
• Sprinkle the mousse with reserved 1/4 cup pistachios. Carefully remove collar from dish. Turn spoonfuls of mousse onto plates and serve with lime sabayon on the side.

STRAWBERRY CHAMPAGNE SOUP

Steps:

• Place the strawberries into a blender, and sprinkle with sugar and salt. Process until smooth. Cover, and chill for 2 hours. Stir in champagne just before serving.
