Honestly, Jordan and I didn’t have a clue which recipe we would use for our regular Friday recipe post. \u00a0That is until I received this morning’s Lexington Herald-Leader<\/em>. \u00a0Its regular Thursday food section featured a recipe I had never made and frankly had never heard of.<\/h3>\n

Since I had all of the ingredients on hand, I decided to mix it up really fast and let it bake while I caught up on my blog reading. \u00a0(Also, I was killing time while waiting to do a radio interview, but that is way off topic).<\/h3>\n

My photo of the finished product isn’t as pretty as the one in the paper, but I conquered another French recipe, and it tastes really great. \u00a0Score!!!<\/h3>\n

STRAWBERRY FRANGIPANE<\/span><\/h3>\n

\u00a0– Pam for spraying the pan<\/h3>\n

\u00a0– 5 large egg yolks<\/h3>\n

\u00a0– 1 cup superfine sugar (You can make this by giving granulated sugar a whirl in the food processor for 60 seconds).<\/h3>\n

\u00a0– 1 1\/2 cups whole or slivered almonds, finely ground in the food processor<\/h3>\n

\u00a0– 1\/2 teaspoon vanilla extract<\/h3>\n

\u00a0– 1\/8 teaspoon salt<\/h3>\n

\u00a0– 1 pound strawberries, hulled<\/h3>\n

\u00a0– Confectioner’s sugar for dusting<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

\u00a0– In a double boiler with simmering water, constantly whisk the yolks and sugar till triple in volume and warm. \u00a0Remove from heat and fold in almonds, vanilla, and salt. \u00a0Spread into a tart pan that has been sprayed with Pam. \u00a0Arrange strawberries, pressing them into the frangipane so they are mostly submerged.<\/h3>\n

<\/h3>\n

\u00a0– Bake in a 375 degree oven for about 30 minutes. \u00a0Dust with confectioner’s sugar and serve either warm or cool. \u00a0Can be topped with ice cream or whipped cream.<\/h3>\n

(Note: \u00a0I paraphrased the original recipe to simplify it).<\/h3>\n

*****<\/h3>\n

<\/h3>\n

Have a wonderful week-end. \u00a0We are looking forward to a bunch of bicycling. \u00a0We are training for two upcoming cycling trips.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Take care.<\/h3>\n
