Best 10 Peach Semifreddo With Raspberry Sauce Recipes

VANILLA SEMIFREDDO WITH RASPBERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Lightly oil an 8 1/2-by-4 1/2-by-2-inch loaf pan and line it as neatly as possible with plastic wrap, allowing enough to drape over the sides to later cover the top. (I lay two pieces of plastic wrap across the pan, overlapping in the middle.) Place the pan in the freezer.
• Put the egg yolks (reserve 1/3 cup of the egg whites and discard or save the rest for another use), 1/4 cup of the sugar and the vanilla seeds in a medium heatproof bowl and beat with a handheld mixer fitted with the beater attachment for 2 minutes, until light yellow and thickened. Place the bowl over a pan of simmering water and beat the mixture continually for 3 minutes, until doubled in volume and warm to the touch. Off the heat, beat the mixture for 1 minute.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, add the reserved egg whites, the remaining 1/4 cup of sugar and the cream of tartar and beat on high speed until the whites form firm but not dry peaks. Fold the egg whites into the egg mixture with a rubber spatula.
• Without washing the mixer or whisk, pour the heavy cream, vanilla liqueur (if using) and vanilla into the bowl and beat on high speed until it forms soft peaks. Fold the whipped cream carefully but thoroughly into the egg mixture. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan, cover with plastic wrap, and freeze for at least 4 hours.
• Place the raspberries, sugar and 1/4 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, lower the heat and simmer for 4 minutes.
• Pour the mixture and the preserves into the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade and process until smooth. Stir in the framboise and chill.
• To unmold, dip the pan in a bowl of hot tap water for 8 to 10 seconds and turn the semifreddo upside down onto a rectangular serving plate. Peel off the plastic wrap. (You can cover and refreeze the semifreddo for a few hours on the serving plate.) Pour several tablespoons of raspberry sauce on each dessert plate, cut 1-inch-thick slices of the semifreddo and place them in the center of the sauce. Sprinkle each serving with blueberries and serve immediately.

PEACH SEMIFREDDO WITH RASPBERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Line a 4-cup metal loaf pan with a piece of waxed paper that covers the bottom and both long sides and extends three inches beyond the edges of the pan. The ends of the pan do not need to be covered.
• Cut the peaches in half, remove the pits and cut each peach half in quarters. Place the peaches in a food processor with the lemon juice, 1/2 cup of the sugar and the ricotta, then puree. Push the puree through a sieve to remove bits of skin.
• Refrigerate the peach mixture while continuing with the recipe.
• Whip the cream until stiff. Fold the whipped cream into the peach mixture, then pour the mixture into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top. Fold the ends of the waxed paper over the top to cover mixture. Place the pan in the freezer for 8 hours or overnight.
• Reserve 6 attractive raspberries for garnish and make the sauce by forcing the remaining raspberries through a sieve; or puree the raspberries in a food processor, then sieve them to remove the seeds. Sweeten the puree to taste with some or all of the remaining sugar. Transfer the sauce to a bowl, cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• An hour and a half to 3 hours before serving, unmold it. Run a knife down the narrow ends and along the sides of the pan, lift the waxed paper off the top and unmold the semifreddo onto a large piece of foil. Peel off the waxed paper, wrap the block of dessert in foil and place it in the refrigerator on its serving dish until ready to serve. It can remain in the refrigerator up to 4 hours.
• To serve, unwrap the semifreddo, place on its chilled serving dish and garnish with the reserved raspberries. Cut thick slices and spoon some sauce on each serving.

PEACH CHAMPAGNE SEMIFREDDO

Steps:

• In a stainless steel mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, 1/2 cup of the sugar and a pinch of the salt. Whisk in the champagne. Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water. (The pot should be sitting over, not in the water.) Whisk vigorously until thick, about 3 minutes. Remove the bowl from the pot and place it in a bowl of ice water. Cool until room temperature, stirring occasionally. Whip the cream until soft peaks form. Fold the cream into the cooled champagne mixture.
• Spray a loaf pan with nonstick spray. (I like to use a pan approximately 3 1/2 by 11 1/2 by 3 1/2 inches but a 9-inch square pan will work.) Line the pan with plastic wrap, making sure to press the plastic wrap into the corners of the pan. (The nonstick spray helps the plastic wrap stick to the pan. The plastic wrap makes the terrine easier to unmold.) Gently spread half of the champagne cream into the loaf pan. Place the pan in the freezer for at least 1 hour. Refrigerate the remaining champagne cream.
• Combine the water and the remaining 3/4 cup sugar in a small sauce pot. Bring the sugar and water to a boil over high heat and boil for 1 minute until the sugar is dissolved. Cool the mixture to at least room temperature. (It can be made several days in advance and refrigerated.)
• Peel and pit the 2 pounds of peaches. Puree them in a food processor. Strain the puree through a medium holed sieve. There should be 3 cups of peach puree. Stir 1/2 cup of the sugar syrup into the peach puree. Add the remaining pinch salt and the lemon juice. Taste the peach puree. If it is not sweet enough add a little more sugar syrup. (The amount of sugar necessary will depend on the natural sweetness of the peaches. Extra sugar syrup can be used to sweeten ice tea.) Freeze the peach puree in an ice cream machine according to manufacturer's instructions.
• When the peach puree is frozen, spread it evenly into the loaf pan over the frozen champagne cream. Let the puree become firm again in the freezer, then carefully spread the remaining champagne cream on top. Freeze the semifreddo for several hours until hard. It can be made several days in advance.
• Peel the remaining peaches. Cut them in half and remove the pits. Cut in 1/2 inch pieces. Taste the peaches. If they are not very sweet, stir in a little granulated sugar. Often peaches are naturally sweet enough and do not need additional sugar.
• To unmold, invert the loaf pan onto a cutting board. Run a wet hot towel over the pan. Remove the pan. Carefully peel off the plastic wrap.
• Slice the semifreddo and place on a plate. Serve with some of the fresh peaches.

FROZEN PEACH SOUFFLE WITH RASPBERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Use a food mill to process raspberries and remove seeds; discard seeds.
• Alternatively, you can puree raspberries in a food processor, then strain to remove seeds; makes about 1 cup raspberry puree.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together raspberry puree and sugar, until sugar is dissolved; stir in lemon juice and chill (makes about 1/2 cup syrup and can be stored up to 3 days in the refrigerator).
• Cut a sheet of waxed paper to wrap around a one quart souffle dish; fold in thirds, lengthwise, so it is about 4 inches wide; wrap around the souffle dish and tape ends together, like a collar, so it extends the "height" of the dish by 3 inches; chill dish in freezer.
• Alternatively, use the same method to increase the "height" of 8 individual ramekins by 1 1/2 inches.
• In a large saucepan, over medium heat, cook peaches, 1/3 cup sugar and the lemon juice, stirring frequently, until peaches are soft and break down to an applesauce consistency, about 15 minutes.
• Puree the cooked peaches in a food mill or blender; you'll have about 2 cups.
• In a small saucepan, over medium heat, warm peach liqueur, stir in gelatin and cook, while stirring, until the gelatin melts; stir the gelatin mixture and the almond extract into the peach puree; chill until cold.
• Bring a pot of water to a simmer; beat egg yolks with remaining 2/3 cups sugar in a mixing bowl.
• Place mixing bowl over the simmering water, being sure the bowl does not touch the water; whisk egg yolks until they are pale yellow and have doubled in volume, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Remove bowl from heat, whisk in the peach mixture and whisk until it cools down.
• Beat egg whites to stiff peaks; in a separate bowl, beat whipping cream to soft peaks.
• Stir half the egg whites into the peach mixture; add remaining egg whites to the whipped cream, then pour the peach mixture on top.
• Gently fold them all together.
• Gently spoon mixture into the souffle dish or the prepared ramekins; it should come at least halfway up the paper collar.
• Smooth out the top and scatter with the toasted almonds.
• Freeze until very firm, at least 4 hours; it can be frozen overnight, but transfer to the refrigerator for an hour to soften before serving.
• If you do make it more than 1 day in advance, press plastic wrap to surface, once frozen.
• To serve, carefully remove collar, serve thin slices with a little raspberry sauce spooned over, and the rest passed.
• Alternatively, serve in individual ramekins, with a little raspberry sauce.

LIMONCELLO & RASPBERRY SEMIFREDDO

Steps:

• Line the base of a 1kg loaf tin (19cm x 12cm x 9cm deep) with baking parchment. For the semifreddo, mash the raspberries and half the sugar in a bowl with a fork. Whisk the cream, the rest of the sugar and the limoncello to soft peaks. Beat the crème fraîche briefly so it is in soft peaks like the cream. Gently fold the cream mixture and crème fraîche together.
• Pour the mashed raspberries into the cream and give a few stirs only - just enough to swirl it through the creamy mix. Pour the mixture into the loaf tin and smooth the top.
• For the coulis, mash the raspberries, sugar and limoncello with a fork, then push through a sieve.
• Open-freeze (see 'Try' below) the semifreddo then cover with cling film and foil and freeze for up to 1 month. Pour the sieved coulis into a rigid container and freeze for up to 1 month.
• To serve, thaw the coulis in the fridge overnight. Thaw the semifreddo in the fridge for 1 hr. Remove it from the tin and peel off the lining paper. Drizzle with a little of the coulis and scatter some raspberries over the top. Serve in slices with the rest of the coulis.

GRILLED PEACHES WITH FRESH RASPBERRY SAUCE
