CARAMELIZING!
MELTING!
GRILLED PEACHES WITH HONEY AND MASCARPONE
Preparation: 30 min; Cooking time: 15 min.
4 servings
4 peaches (not too ripe)
8 oz of mascarpone cheese
½ lemon juice
1 vanilla bean
2 1/8 oz of confectioners’ sugar
5 tbsp of honey
1 3/8 of unsalted butter
1 ¾ of sliced almonds
Peel the peaches and cut them in half.
In a medium bowl, combine the mascarpone cheese with the lemon juice, the sugar and the seeds of the vanilla bean (cut the vanilla bean in half and using a little knife, take the seeds out).
In a small frying pan, toast the almonds a few minutes until golden brown.
In a large frying pan, warm the honey and butter on high heat. Add the peaches a cook them 5 minutes on both sides. With a spoon, scoop the honey over the peaches regularly while cooking.
Place the warm peaches in a baking dish (keep the caramel warm in the frying pan). Add a scoop of the mascarpone preparation on top of each peach and sprinkle with toasted almonds.
Turn the broiler on high and grill the peaches 3 to 5 minutes.
Serve hot with the caramel.
Bon Appétit!
