Chestnut honey semifreddo with amaro figs

Try Jane's dessert from week 2 of COME DINE WITH ME AUSTRALIA series 2.

Ingredients

Chestnut Honey Semifreddo

  • 180g chestnut honey
  • 600ml whipping cream chilled
  • 2 small pinches lavender blossom

Amaro Figs

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/12 cups of verjuice
  • 1 vanilla bean split
  • 10 large figs peeled
  • 50ml Amaro di Vincenzi
  • Lavender Blossom

Method

Chestnut Honey Semifreddo

  1. Line 6 pudding moulds with baking paper.
  2. Gently warm the chestnut honey with 1/4 cup of chilled cream and lavender blossom.
  3. Whip remaining cream very firmly and gently fold the melted honey mixture into it.
  4. Divide between the prepared moulds and freeze until firm.
  5. Turn semifreddo out of mould, remove baking paper.
  6. Semifreddo should not be too hard when it is served, so remove it from freezer and allow to rest well before serving.
  7. Serve with figs stewed in Amaro Syrup.

Amaro Figs

  1. Put sugar, verjuice and vanilla bean into saucepan and heat gently until sugar has dissolved.
  2. Add peeled figs and simmer gently for 5 minutes covered until tender, then let figs cool in syrup.
  3. Add the Amaro and leave for 30 minutes.
  4. Serve figs and juice on semifreddo and place 1 whole Lavender Blossom on top and sprinkle all over with crushed Lavender Blossom.
