Categories     dessert

Time 2h10m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

14 whole graham crackers (the 4-section large pieces)
1/2 cup macadamia nuts
1 stick (8 tablespoons) salted butter, melted
1/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon lime zest plus 1/2 cup lime juice
2 large egg yolks
One 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
1 cup heavy cream, chilled
2 tablespoons sugar
5 kiwis, peeled

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • For the crust: Put the graham crackers and most of the macadamia nuts in the bowl of a food processor and process until smooth. Add the butter and sugar and process again to combine. Press into a pie pan and bake until golden and set, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly while you make the filling.
  • For the filling: In the bowl of a stand mixer, add the lime zest and juice and egg yolks and mix until combined. Add the condensed milk and mix on high until smooth and thick. Pour the mixture into the crust and bake until no longer jiggly, about 15 minutes. Allow to cool, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour, more if possible.
  • For the topping: Pour the cold heavy cream into a clean mixer bowl. Add the sugar and beat on high speed until the whipped cream is very stiff.
  • Slice the kiwis and cover the surface of the cooled pie with the slices. Spread the whipped cream on top. Slice the remaining kiwi slices in half and decorate the top of the pie with them. Chop the remaining macadamia nuts, sprinkle on top and serve.

Time 12h40m

Yield 40

Number Of Ingredients 5

24 kiwis, peeled and mashed
¾ cup pineapple juice
¼ cup fresh lemon juice
3 apples, unpeeled and halved
4 cups white sugar

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan, combine 3 cups mashed kiwi, pineapple juice, lemon juice and apples. Bring to a boil and then add the sugar; stir to dissolve, reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes.
  • Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack the jam into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids, and screw on rings.
  • Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then carefully lower the jars into the pot using a holder. Leave a 2 inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary until the water level is at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a full boil, cover the pot, and process for 10 minutes.

KIWI JAM



Kiwi Jam image

An excellent use for hard kiwis that refuse to ripen. Simple, tasty, tart, but as I don't do preserves, I don't know how well it'll keep. So keep the batches small, and refrigerate, unless you're an experienced jam maker.

Categories     Kiwifruit

Time 20m

Yield 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 4

5 unripe kiwi fruits
1/2 cup water
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon lime juice (any acid will work)

Steps:

  • Peel and dice kiwis, cutting out the core if you're short on time (or want something that's more of a jelly than a jam).
  • Putting the kiwis, water, sugar and lime juice in a large saucepan, set it on medium heat and bring to a simmer. Let simmer on low under a lid for 30-45 minutes (if you left in the cores) or until soft (10-15 without cores).
  • Take off the lid and let reduce to thickened consistency (it'll be a bit of a jelly now).
  • Either put through a food processor, or very gently whisk until it's as smooth or lumpy as you want it (kiwi napalm burns, kids).
  • Put in a container and refrigerate (will keep up to 2 weeks), use on pancakes, toast, cake, anywhere you like.

KIWI & LIME JAM



Kiwi & Lime Jam image

This recipe uses the flavorful kiwi fruit with a hint of lime juice and zest. When making the jam, use just-ripe kiwi fruit to allow for the fruit's natural pectin to be at its highest levels. This will reduce the cooking time of the jam and also help it to set naturally. The tangy jam is delicious with a little butter on toast and a cup of tea. If you're feeling adventurous, you could also use the jam as an accompaniment to a hard cheese with some cracker.
