Christmas eve and a special post.
Here come some easy recipes that will surpise your guests.
I love the Paul & Pippa biscuits. They invited me for one of their workshop: blending their cookies with the right sauce for a cool & easy aperitif or an exotic dessert.
It was at the Moritz store, where you can get those cookies as well as in some other gourmet stores.
Recipes to accompany their salted selection:
Red Pepper Salsa
Roast 3 red peppers in the oven (about 20 minutes 220ºC), cleaned of skin and seeds and cut into strips as well as 3 cloves of garlic. Beat it all with 350 gr og Philadelphia cheese 80g of fresh cream and 50g of butter.
Keep it in a refrigerator.
Enjoy it with the olive crackers or any other.
Truffle Sauce:
Mix in a bowl 300 ml of milk, 150 ml of fresh cream, 50g grated Parmesan, 50 g butter and 30 g of truffle.
Mix all the ingredients at very low temperature, let it chill and refrigerate it.
It's a wonderful sauce to accompany your dishes and some savoury crackers.

For their sweet selection:

You can make ice cream or sorbet , adding more fruits or cream according to your taste.

Mascarpone Cream

These two last cream accompanied at perfection the sweet cookies. My favorite blend was: the coconut Paul & Pippa cookie served with the red fruit sauce. It is festive & perfect for today.
