About a months relief, an expensive friend of mine brought me a real deal with: Sucre roux a la Coriandre. On the overall, it be a coriander-infused sugar, and it be luscious. I wasn’t rather determined what to total with it, in the initiating, nonetheless since, I’ve old it in a fig-poaching liquid as neatly as to caramelize Asian pears. Both are real delights.
Final evening I served the caramelized pears atop homemade spiced apple butter -pleasant- and closing week I set them on pan-roasted salmon. Also delish. Though I’ve no longer tried this with other pears or apples, I suspect the conclude result would be equally tasty. I began with Asian pears because I admire their crunch and conception they’d bewitch up neatly in the route of cooking. They conclude.
This sugar is made by Terre Exotique. I mediate you would possibly perhaps approximate it by whisking some freshly ground coriander into unrefined sugar.
