Recipe by Sebastien Canonne & Jacquy Pfeiffer



Method For French Meringue:
Place the room temperature egg whites and cream of tartar in mixing bowl with whip attachment. Begin whipping until foamy on slow speed (to break up the whites). Turn on higher speed and gradually add half of the sucrose. Whip until stiff peak and turn on high speed, adding quickly the other half of the sucrose. When the egg whites have reached their maximum volume stop whipping and fold in the powdered sugar; mix until smooth. Pipe on stenciled parchment paper (disk and shells). Sprinkle powdered sugar on the meringue disk. WAIT 5 MINUTES AND REPEAT. BAKE AT 176.6ºC / 350ºF (VENT OPEN) TURN OFF THE OVEN AND LET THE MERINGUE DRY OVERNIGHT.

Method For Pistachio Ice Cream :
Mix the stabilizer with 178 Grams of Sucrose at 4ºC, mix the milk and the 0% fat milk powder At 25ºC, mix in the sugars (sucrose, trimoline) at 35ºC, mix in the melted butter at 37ºC, mix in the pistachio paste at 40ºC, mix in the egg yolks at 45ºC, add the stabilizer mixed with the sugar Heat to 85ºC for 2 minutes Cool rapidly to 4ºC and add the kirsch. Leave to mature between 4 - 12 hours. ( Do this to insure the milk's protein hydration and the full strength of the stabilizer and emulsifier. Maturation will also reinforce the flavor and smooth texture of the ice cream).
Homogenize with hand blender. Freeze in ice cream machine. Transfer the ice cream to an airtight container then deep-freeze to ensure the stabilization of the product (up to -40ºC).Keep in container in a freezer at -25ºC.

Method For Nougat Glace :
Whip the egg whites slowly boil the sucrose, glucose and honey to 125º C / 257º f. Pour over the egg whites and whip until cold fold in the nuts, zest and chopped pate de fruit. Fold in the whipped cream. Fill two dome inserts.

Method For Raspberry Sorbet :
Mix all the dry ingredients together Heat the water to 40ºC Mix in the dry ingredients, stirring briskly Heat to 85ºC (keep covered. Evaporation will unbalance the recipe) Cool rapidly to 20ºC Let mature for a minimum of three hours Fold in the fruit puree Homogenize with the hand blender Freeze in ice cream machine Transfer the sorbet into an airtight container, and then deep-freeze to ensure the stabilization of the product. (Up to -40ºC) Keep in container in the freezer at -25ºC
