The way into a mans heart is through his family, and you get in there with food!
My sister went home with her boyfriend this weekend to meet the fam, a big deal. She wsa nervos a he... well really nervous.
What better to boost her confidence with that a truely amazing desert.
I suggested a pannacotta, I really liked what I'd read about them on several blogs, and I've never actually had it before.
My sister mentioned that her bf's dad had joked about a sponge with strawberries and cream, made by vorgin hands. Sadly my cupboard, as well stocked as it may be was fresh out of virgin hands. Bugger. What were we going to do.
Well we finally settled on this from Tartlet; Tada
Though we did change it a little by using strawberries instead of rasberries and I drizzled a little honey over the top, just to look pretty.
It is without a doubt one of the most stunning deserts I have ever made. Not only is it uber pretty, it is so delicious, you can just keep eating it, it's so light.
It seems like a very complicated and dificult recipe but its actually fairly easy to do. And so worth the effort.
Oh and yes it did fulfill it's duty, My sister stunned her parents inlaw, aparantly it tasted just like the fathers mothers sponge cake. He had seconds at lunch and then ate the rest of it that night.
I think we have a winner.
