Blueberry Butter
Main Ingredients:
- 2 cups (480 milliliters) heavy cream
- 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) whole milk
- 1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise
Sweeteners and Stabilizers:
- 1/4 cup (50 grams) sugar
- 2 1/4 teaspoons (7 grams) gelatin powder
- 3 tablespoons (45 milliliters) cold water
Garnish:
- Fresh berries
- Mint leaves
Instructions
- Gently sprinkle gelatin granules over chilled water, allowing them to hydrate and bloom for 5-10 minutes until they transform into a soft, spongy texture.
- Create a luxurious base by combining cream, sugar, and fragrant vanilla bean seeds in a saucepan, warming gently over medium heat until sugar completely dissolves and mixture reaches a steaming point without boiling.
- Remove cream mixture from heat source and incorporate the softened gelatin, stirring diligently until gelatin particles melt seamlessly into the creamy liquid.
- Introduce cold milk to the mixture, whisking thoroughly to ensure uniform consistency and temperature blending.
- Carefully strain the silky mixture through a fine mesh sieve to eliminate any potential gelatin clumps or undissolved particles, guaranteeing a smooth, refined texture.
- Distribute the liquid evenly into elegant serving glasses or classic ramekins, ensuring consistent portion sizes.
- Refrigerate the delicate dessert for a minimum of 4 hours, allowing it to set and develop a tender, quivering consistency.
- Before presenting, embellish the chilled dessert with a vibrant medley of fresh blueberries and delicate mint leaves, adding visual appeal and complementary flavors.
Notes
- Bloom gelatin slowly to ensure smooth, lump-free texture without rushing the process.
- Use fresh, high-quality blueberries for maximum flavor intensity and vibrant color in the garnish.
- Strain mixture carefully through fine sieve to eliminate any potential gelatin or vanilla bean fragments for silky-smooth consistency.
- Adjust sweetness by varying sugar quantity or substituting with honey or alternative sweeteners for different dietary preferences.
