LEMON SYLLABUB

This is a deliciously light, creamy, sophisticated little dessert from days gone by. I first tasted it at a supper given by a lecturer in seventeenth-century literature when I was at college, and it took our tastebuds right back to the Restoration. It can be prepared as either a parfait or a punch--please note that either version contains alcohol, so you may not want to serve this to younger family members.

HONEY SYLLABUB

A British creation dating to the sixteenth century, the syllabub hovers between a thick drink and a dessert. Ours features mead, a honey- and flower-flavored spirit popular in early England; dessert wine such as Sauternes is as delicious.

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup cold heavy cream
1 fresh bay leaf
4 large egg yolks
1/4 cup sugar
6 tablespoons mead
1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
Sugared Bay Leaves, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Put 1/2 cup cream and the bay leaf into a small saucepan; cook over medium heat until almost simmering. Remove from heat. Cover, and let steep 30 minutes. Refrigerate until very cold, about 40 minutes. Discard bay leaf.
  • Whisk egg yolks and sugar in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Add mead; whisk until thick and glossy, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl set over an ice-water bath, and whisk occasionally until cool, about 30 minutes.
  • Put remaining 1/2 cup cream, the bay leaf-infused cream, and nutmeg into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment; beat on medium-high speed until soft peaks form. Fold into wine mixture. Refrigerate up to 2 hours. Serve garnished with sugared bay leaves.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality sweet white wine for the syllabub. A Riesling or Gewürztraminer works well.
  • Make sure the cream is very cold before whipping it. This will help it to hold its shape.
  • Gently fold the whipped cream into the wine mixture. Over-mixing will cause the syllabub to lose its light and airy texture.
  • Serve the syllabub immediately or chill it for a few hours before serving.
  • Garnish the syllabub with fresh berries or a sprinkle of grated chocolate.

Conclusion:

Syllabub is a classic English dessert that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. It is a light and airy dessert that is perfect for any occasion. Whether you are serving it at a dinner party or a casual get-together, syllabub is sure to be a hit.
