COOKING WITH TEA

Sugar Plum Fairy Tale

Harmonizing smooth, fruity panna cottas and a Sugar Plum Fairy tea-infused ice cream with a crisp sablé viennois, Pastry Chef Ravindra Verma of the Ritz Carlton New Orleans creates a plate as delicate as the Sugar Plum Fairy.
 
Different textures create a sweet fairy tale of satsuma, plum, cassia and rooibos.

Sugar Plum Fairy Tale

Notes from Pastry Chef Ravindra Verma, Ritz Carlton, New Orleans:

“The dessert is very light and creamy, so we needed to add a bit of texture. We hand-mixed a sugar dough, and chilled it for four hours. If you didn’t, the dough would be too soft to handle when mixed and softened with room temperature butter, and will end up as a tuile rather than a crisp cookie. It’s all about harmonizing the different elements of the dessert.”
