Fruit and berry desserts are popular at all times. Fruit cocktails, salads, pies, cakes, biscuits and pastries are the perfect decoration for any table. Do not forget about the benefits of such dishes in the diet. For example, apples are a source of special carbohydrates that affect cholesterol, significantly lower the chances of developing cancer. A pear dessert is an excellent choice for a successful fight against bronchitis and anemia.
Exotic fruits, in particular, mandarin and kiwi, have beneficial effects on the heart muscle. Citrus fruits are also famous for their vitamin C richness, which is also a great way to boost immunity.
Apples are widely used by us. But pears remained undeservedly offended. Let's think about how to make an unforgettable dessert of pears, and one that emphasizes all the advantages of this fruit. The simplest dish is salad. Ingredients:
Peel the fruits. We leave medium and small pears intact, divide large ones in half. Take the core out of the fruit. Pears darken pretty quickly, so to avoid this, just put the fruit in acidified water. Next, prepare the syrup, which includes water, sugar, vinegar and spices. We put pears in it and cook over low heat until they are ready. Pears are ready when they can be easily pierced with a stick (match, straw, toothpick). Next, we take the fruits out of the syrup, put them on the bottom of a large glass dessert plate and pour in the syrup (strained). Pear dessert is decorated with whipped cream or sour cream.
This is a universal dish for all seasons, but in sultry summer citrus fruits help get rid of thirst and fatigue. We will try to make a fairly simple kiwi dessert, which is often offered in most European resorts. We need:
Beat with a mixer or whisk cream. Mix yogurt with cottage cheese and add lemon zest, vanilla sugar and granulated sugar. Beat all the folded ingredients with a mixer.
We peel the kiwi and cut out several smooth beautiful slices to decorate the dessert. Grind the rest with a blender. Add 0.5 tbsp. sugar and mix.
Spread in suitable glasses (cups) in layers: layers of kiwi alternate with layers of cottage cheese. From above everything is decorated with small jelly cubes, mint leaves and slices of green citrus. As you can see, there is nothing fantastic, and a kiwi dessert is prepared quite quickly.
And now we are preparing a bright dessert of tangerines. It would seem that one can make of them. It turns out that there are more than two hundred recipes for making original dessert dishes from this citrus. Consider the option, which is prepared in minutes, and leaves impressions bright, sunny and for a long time. We will need:
You can beat both ingredients together with a mixer and eat quickly, of course, but it's too easy. And you try to carefully divide the tangerines, cutting exactly every half with a knife. With careful movements, we remove the flesh from the tangerine peel - and we get a kind of "pots". Now beat the pulp with ice cream with a mixer or a blender, and then put this mixture into improvised basket-pots. Before use, it is desirable to hold such a dessert of tangerines for 3 hours in the refrigerator. Handsomely?
Be brave and fantasize. Remember, fruit is not only tasty, but also healthy food. And whether it is a dessert made from pears or from outlandish pamelo, it does not matter at all, the main thing is vitamins.
