Honey Yogurt Semifreddo with Raspberries and Pistachios Recipe (Kopie)

*****


Prep Time: 30 minutes

Total Time: 5 hours



Serves 6-8




An easy but elegant summer dessert made from yogurt, honey and raspberries topped with chopped pistachios. Make a dairy-free version by substituting an equal amount of whipped coconut cream for the yogurt.

Ingredients
•½ cup/62g pistachios, shelled
•4 egg whites
•1/3 cup plus 2 Tablespoons/150g wildflower honey
•1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
•1/8 teaspoon sea salt
•2 cups/454g strained whole milk or Greek yogurt (I like to use goat milk yogurt which can be easier to digest)
•The juice of half a lemon
•3/4 cup/140g fresh or frozen raspberries for the semifreddo
•6 oz/170g fresh raspberries or mixed berries for serving
•

Instructions
1.Line the long sides of a 9" x 5" /2 litre loaf pan with parchment paper, leaving enough hanging over sides to fold over.
2.Coarsely chop pistachios, set aside.
3.In a mixer bowl combine egg whites, honey, cream of tartar, salt and vanilla extract and set over a pot of simmering water (the bottom of bowl should not touch the water); stirring until mixture is warm, about 2 to 3 minutes.
4.Remove bowl from heat and beat mixture with the whisk attachment on medium-high speed until stiff, glossy peaks form, about 5 to 7 minutes. The meringue should be firm and glossy and keep its shape.
5.Whisk yogurt together with lemon juice in a large bowl.
6.Whisk a few large spoonfuls of the meringue mixture into the yogurt to lighten the base, then fold the rest of the meringue into the yogurt gently until fully incorporated.
7.Spoon 1/3 of the yogurt meringue mixture into pan cover with a layer of raspberries and add the remaining yogurt mixture. Smooth the surface with a spoon, then cover and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm (or overnight).
8.Dip the bottom of the pan in hot water for a few seconds. Turn out onto a serving platter sprinkle with chopped pistachios and additional berries and slice.
