Strawberry Granita with Sweet Basil Sauce Strawberry Granita with Sweet Basil Sauce By Chef Veera Gaul, Ph.D. Ingredients 1 ½ lbs fresh strawberries, hulled 1/3 cup simple syrup 2 tablespoons lemon juice ¼ teaspoon kosher salt 2 cup fresh basil leaves ½ cup Basil EVOO * 1/3 cup pine nuts 3 tablespoons Maple syrup * 1 tablespoon Melipone Vanilla extract * Whipped cream for serving (optional) Whole strawberries for garnish Preparation In a blender or food processor, combine strawberries, simple syrup, lemon juice and salt. Pour through a wire mesh strainer into a 13 x 9x 2 inch freezer safe pan (I like to use a lasagna pan). Transfer to freezer and freeze 2-2 ½ hours scraping with a fork every 30-40 minutes to create small ice crystals. Keep moving the crystals from the edges towards the mushy center. Repeat till granita looks dry and fluffy. At this point you can cover tightly with plastic wrap and keep in the freezer till you are ready to serve While the granita freezes, in a clean food processor, add the basil, pine nuts, Melipone vanilla and maple syrup. Process until smooth while drizzling in the olive oil (about 2 minutes). Recipes for every taste – ChefVeera.com To serve, scoop granita into bowls, top with whipped cream, a drizzle of sweet basil pesto and garnish with whole strawberries Active Time: 25 minutes. Total Time: 3 hours Serves 6 Notes * The Oil & Vinegar brand Basil EVOO adds an extra layer of basil flavor to this sweet pesto sauce, but you can substitute a high-quality plain single estate EVOO instead. The result will tone down the depth of the basil flavor a little, but it will still be delicious. As with all dishes using simple ingredients, high-quality ingredients, especially maple syrup and vanilla will add complexity and intensity of flavor to this recipe.
