A new year, a new challenge. And the first one is already around the corner, in march this year I will have a pastry magazine photoshoot and therefore i will need to create a few new desserts. So what is better then recreating a classic dessert and bringing it into 2011 with a fresh new look. I decided to focus on the french classic ice-cream dessert "vacherin". The basic ingredients for a vacherin are a combination of meringue, fruit (mostly strawberies or raspberries) and in my case ice-cream or sorbet.
But we are 2011 now so we can step it up a little bit, and make some changes. i decided to add some acidity to the dessert in the form of sherryvinegar which goes great in combination with strawberries. I also added some sherry and lemonbalm to top it off. that all combined with the classic set up of a vacherin and some new textures i created a vacherin 2011. So that means one dessert down three to go!!!
