Nougat Glacé Dessert Recipe

ingredients for 8 to 10 servings 

- 100 grams for nougatine (we don't make it, we buy it at the bakery - boulangerie - then crash it in small pieces)

- 150 grams for candied fruits

- 4 egg whites

- 50 grams sugar

- 75 grams of honey

- 50 centiliter of liquid cream (crème fraiche) to make a home made whipped cream

 

• Prepare the whipped cream and put it on the fridge.

 

• Heat at medium level, the honey + sugar for about 5 minutes.

 

• Whip the egg-whites to a light mousse, then add slowly the mix of honey and sugar - then whip rapidely.

 

• In a bowl, mix the egg whites and the nougatine, candied fruits + the whipped cream. 

 

•  Put this mix in a terrine (oven dish) and in the deep-freez for at least 12 hours (can be much longer of course). 

You can serve it plain or with a red-fruit coulis.  Good thing with this recipe is that you can prepare it in advance. If you don't finish it, put it back in the deep-freez and enjoy it on the next days.  Bon Appétit! Emilie
