SIMPLE BRANDY CREAM SAUCE FOR RAVIOLI
I'm on a cream sauce and ravioli kick right now. This is a simple sauce to make. It doesn't matter what kind of brandy you use; you can also sub gold rum although brandy gives it a richer taste. But it would also probably taste fine if you omit it. This is a good amount for about 4 servings, 700g/1.5 lbs of premade ravioli.

Steps:
- Make a roux out of the butter, flour, and garlic. Be careful not to burn the mixture, turn the heat off should lumps form-- keep whisking this mixture thoroughly.
- Pour in the milk and whisk it with the roux.
- Incorporate the alcohol. Let the sauce cook until thickened, this may take several minutes.
- Beat in the spices and stir.
- Throw in the parsley and serve over ravioli of your choice. It also makes a nice sauce for veggies, especially with mushrooms.
Tips:
- Use high-quality brandy: The type of brandy you use will significantly impact the flavor of the final product. Opt for a good-quality, smooth brandy with a flavor profile that you enjoy.
- Chill the ingredients and equipment: Chilling the cream, brandy, and mixing bowl before starting helps the cream whip up faster and results in a smoother texture.
- Whip the cream gradually: Avoid over-whipping the cream, as this can cause it to become grainy. Start whipping on low speed and gradually increase the speed as the cream thickens.
- Sweeten to taste: The amount of sugar you add will depend on your personal preference. Start with a small amount and taste test along the way until you achieve the desired sweetness.
- Garnish with grated chocolate or nutmeg: For a festive touch, garnish the brandy cream with grated chocolate or freshly grated nutmeg before serving.
Conclusion:
Brandy cream is a versatile and delicious dessert that can be enjoyed on its own, spooned over fresh fruit, or used as a topping for pies and cakes. It is a classic recipe that is sure to impress your guests. With its rich, creamy texture and delightful brandy flavor, brandy cream is a perfect ending to any meal.
