Best 9 Strawberry Gelee With Rose Granita Recipes

FRESH STRAWBERRY GRANITA

Steps:

• Stir first 3 ingredients in small bowl until sugar dissolves. Blend 3 cups strawberries in processor until smooth. Add sugar syrup and blend until combined.
• Pour mixture into 13x9x2-inch nonstick metal baking pan. Freeze until icy around edges, about 25 minutes. Using fork, stir icy portions into middle of pan. Freeze until mixture is frozen, stirring edges into center every 20 to 30 minutes, about 1 1/2 hours. Using fork, scrape granita into flaky crystals. Cover tightly and freeze. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Keep frozen.) Scrape granita into bowls. Garnish with berries and serve.

FRESH STRAWBERRY GRANITA

Steps:

• Rinse strawberries with cold water; let drain. Transfer berries to a blender and add sugar, water, lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, and salt.
• Pulse several times to get the mixture moving, then blend until smooth, about 1 minute. Pour into a large baking dish. Puree should only be about 3/8 inch deep in the dish.
• Place dish uncovered in the freezer until mixture barely begins to freeze around the edges, about 45 minutes. Mixture will still be slushy in the center.
• Lightly stir the crystals from the edge of the granita mixture into the center, using a fork, and mix thoroughly. Close freezer and chill until granita is nearly frozen, 30 to 40 more minutes. Mix lightly with a fork as before, scraping the crystals loose. Repeat freezing and stirring with the fork 3 to 4 times until the granita is light, crystals are separate, and granita looks dry and fluffy.
• Portion granita into small serving bowls to serve.

STRAWBERRY-ROSE GRANITA

Steps:

• Put the hulled strawberries in a bowl and set aside. Cut off and discard the tops of the 12 large strawberries and trim the bottoms so that they sit upright. Use a small melon baller to scoop out the inside of each strawberry to make a small cup, adding the scooped flesh to the bowl with the hulled strawberries. Wrap and store the berry cups in the refrigerator until ready to assemble.
• Combine the rose, sugar and bowl of strawberries and scooped flesh in a blender and blend on high until smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into an 8-inch square metal pan. Freeze 3 to 4 hours, scraping the mixture with a fork every hour to make it slushy. Wrap and freeze until ready to serve. The granita can be made a day ahead and stored overnight.
• Working in batches, remove the strawberry cups from the refrigerator and fill with a spoonful of the granita, mound some more on top and top with a sprig of mint. Store the assembled granita cups in the freezer while assembling the remaining cups to prevent them from melting.

STRAWBERRY GELEE WITH ROSE GRANITA

Steps:

• Thinly slice 6 small berries; set aside 6 more for garnish. Coarsely chop the rest and puree in a food processor with sugar, salt, and lemon juice. Add 1 3/4 cups cold water; pulse to combine. Pass mixture through a fine-mesh sieve; discard seeds. Let mixture stand 10 minutes. Skim and discard any surface foam. (You should have about 4 cups purée.)
• Sprinkle gelatin over 3 tablespoons cold water. Let stand 5 minutes. Heat 1/2 cup purée in a small saucepan over medium-high until warm to the touch. Add gelatin mixture, stirring until dissolved; then stir into 2 1/2 cups purée. Divide mixture among 6 heatproof glasses or shallow bowls. Add sliced strawberries, pushing them down into mixture. Refrigerate until set, at least 4 hours or, covered, up to 2 days.
• In an 8-by-8-inch baking dish, mix together remaining 1 cup purée and rosé. Freeze 2 hours. Scrape with a fork. Freeze 1 hour and scrape again. Keep frozen; when ready to serve, scrape again.
• Slice strawberries reserved for garnish; divide among glasses. Spoon 2 to 3 tablespoons granita on top. Serve immediately.

STRAWBERRY AND MASCARPONE GRANITA

Steps:

• Place the water, 1/2 sugar, and mint in a small pan and bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally to help dissolve the sugar. Let simmer over low heat to steep the mint. Then strain the mint from the simple syrup. Discard the mint.
• In a food processor combine 2 cups of strawberries with the remaining 1 tablespoon of sugar. Run the machine to puree the strawberries. Add the mascarpone cheese, lemon juice, and salt. Run the machine until the mascarpone cheese is fully incorporated. Add the mint simple syrup and run the machine to combine. Place the strawberry mixture in an 8 by 8-inch glass dish and place the dish in the freezer. The mixture will take about 4 hours to freeze.
• To serve, use a fork to scrape the granita. Spoon the mixture into chilled bowls. Top with the finely chopped strawberries. Serve immediately.

STRAWBERRY GRANITA

Steps:

• Place the strawberries in a bowl with the sugar and stir to coat the berries. Line another bowl with a double layer of cheesecloth and add the berries.
• Gather opposite corners of the cheesecloth and tie tightly. Repeat with the other two corners, leaving the knot open to slip in a wooden spoon handle. Propping the spoon across the top of a large bowl, suspend the berries. Refrigerate overnight.
• Squeeze as much juice as possible from the berries. Correct for sugar and stir in the salt. Reserve the pulp for jam.
• Pour the strawberry juice into a nonstick baking dish. Freeze for several hours. Use a spatula to cut and scrape the frozen juice into an ice the consistency of snow. Refreeze before serving. Place a few scoops of granita in a bowl and drizzle a few drops of the vinegar over it. Serve.

STRAWBERRY GRANITA

Steps:

• Put the strawberries and water in a bowl and then blitz with a hand blender until most of the berries are puréed or use a food processor for a smoother texture.
• Add the sugar and lemon juice and stir a few times to combine.
• Pour into a sealable container, cover and put in the freezer for two hours.
• After two hours, take it out and run a large spoon around the outside, mixing the frozen bits into the unfrozen centre.
• Return to the freezer for another hour, give it another mix, and then freeze again for one last hour.
• Now you should have a whole box of strawberry"snow crystals".
• You can serve it now, or just leave in the freezer for another day.
• If you continue to freeze it, remember to leave enough time to let it sit in the fridge for 30-40 minutes before you want to serve the granita, so you don't have a solid mass.

STRAWBERRY GELéE

Steps:

• Run a 9 x 12-inch rimmed baking sheet under cold water and shake off the excess. Line the damp pan neatly with plastic wrap. (The water will help the plastic stick to the pan.)
• Cut enough of the strawberries into tiny dice to measure 1/4 cup.
• Put the remaining strawberries in a food processor and process to a very smooth puree. Strain and measure out 2 cups.
• Pour about 1/2 cup of the puree into a small bowl and sprinkle the gelatin over the surface. Let sit for at least 1 minute.
• Pour the water into a saucepan and whisk in the agar. Add 1/2 cup of the strawberry puree and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the puree with the gelatin and whisk for at least 1 minute to dissolve the gelatin. Remove the pan from the heat and add the remaining 1 cup puree, the sugar, the Triple Sec, and the diced strawberries. Taste for sugar and stir in more if needed.
• Skim any froth. Pour into the baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set. To serve, turn out onto a cutting board and cut into small squares. Or use a whisk to break the gelée up into irregular shapes.

STRAWBERRY GRANITA DESSERT WITH ROSE WATER

Steps:

• Gently wash and hull strawberries, then place in a food processor.
• Process until pureed. It may be necessary to add a small amount of water to help blend the strawberries.
• Working in batches, press purée through a fine sieve to extract seeds (discard seeds). Note: I admit: I'm lazy and skip this step. I leave it for you to decide whether to remove the seeds or not.
• Whisk powdered sugar, lemon juice and rose water into pureed strawberries. It should seem a little too sweet and a little too sharp; both tastes will be muted slightly when frozen.
• Pour the strawberry purée into a bowl or large tub; for best results, the mixture should be no deeper than about 1 inch.
• Freeze until solid, at least 1 hour.
• Remove from freezer 5 minutes before serving.
• Using a sturdy scoop or spoon, mound granita into *goblets and cap each with a trickle of cream. The cream will solidify, semifrozen, like a snowcap on a pink mountain.
• *I used fancy dessert glasses which were placed in the freezer and chilled to get that "frosted" effect.
• Garnish with lemon verbena or mint leaves.
• Very important: serve immediately.
