Last week I went to dinner at my Aunt Loulou (Louise's name). It was a traditional meal, "in a homely," we always orchestra the same way My cousin cooks the main meal and I, good nutritionist that I am, I'll take care of the "sweet" of our family gatherings: the dessert ...
And yes, I have a sweet tooth! Impossible, so if you invite me to dinner, to see me come up with for dessert, a fruit salad. Or a bowl of vanilla yogurt. Or nothing at all. I am not for "one must flee fatty and sugary desserts because it goes directly in the buttocks. This is false. Enable them from time to time and reasonably, it might just make you happy and satisfy your craving to eat treats. Farewell taboos, no more sugar cravings. Enjoy special occasions to cook what you want .
I return to my main subject. Always in search of originality and wanting to impress my guests, I asked myself what could I cook well, this time for dessert? Of course, with the oppressive heat that hung in the house (no air conditioning at home ... ouch!) So I had to content myself with a simple dessert to prepare and original, which called for little or no cooking. At 40 degrees Celsius, I do not light my oven to bake pies or cakes, I have no courage! I
therefore decided to bring the local creamery Aunt Loulou. We created a sundae bar . Yum! There was something for the stomach and small ... great! Everyone had a great time and found the idea very original. So I want to share with you some tips so you can relive the experience at home. You will give me some news!
Tip # 1: shivers of happiness ... More
yad'invités it, the more you can afford to buy different flavors of cream or frozen yogurt: vanilla (tradition ...), chocolate (It's inevitable ...), strawberry, black cherry, maple, orange, pistachio ... Opt for those with less toppings, because God knows that you add when preparing your sundae! If people are less likely to your table, opt for one or two varieties, the question of limiting the remaining ... I suggest you also true of real ice cream. No one made milk ingredients. Be sure to check the ingredient list and look for the logo 100% Canadian (with the little cow ...) This will ensure that your product is made from milk and cream from home! I do not represent any trademark, but I can tell you that ice cream looks Coaticook among my favorites.
Tip # 2: Trim off-the-ordinary!
Yes, multicolored candies and peanuts, it tastes good. But to impress the guests off the beaten track: filaments coconut, almonds, mini marshmallows, dried cranberries ... And I can not help but inspire you to add a touch of "nutritious" on your sundaes . Why not fresh fruit between two layers of cream or frozen yogurt? Strawberries, raspberries, peaches or pears sliced, diced or eat pineapple banana slices, kiwi slices ... That "vitamin" your sundae.
If the chocolate syrup, melted caramel or strawberry sauce part of your sundae bar , pour into small individual containers along with a teaspoon for your guests to use. Although I am for the "treats", such syrups are still very sweet. And when the bottle is on the table, people tend to add in every bite ...
Tip # 3: After the contents, the container!
Put in full view. Serve your delights frozen in glasses Wine colored plastic, elongated bowls (type "banana split"), coffee mugs or Bodum Brazilian , waffle bowls, or even the halves of large oranges or grapefruit hollow.
You could always go to the Creamery nearest you walk, question your convenience. But I guarantee you'll have much more fun to customize your sundaes, with family around a table. That ends the dinner with a bang!
