Ingredients used

  • 1 Tbsp unsalted butter
  • Fresh strawberries
  • Fresh rhubarb
  • White sugar
  • Vanilla bean
  • Lemon juice

Preparation

  • Step 1

    Pre-heat the oven to 350 F, set the fan speed to low/half.

  • Remove the Strawberry Rhubarb Delight Danishes from the freezer. Place on a parchment lined baking sheet, wrap, and allow to completely thaw either at room temperature or in the fridge.

  • Generously butter the ring molds and set-aside.

  • Step 2 - Strawberry Rhubarb Compote

    Cut the fresh strawberries in small cube pcs

  • Cut the rhubarb stalks in half or thirds (depending on how wide the stalks are) and then cut into ¼" pcs.

  • Place into a pot with the sugar, scraped vanilla and a tablespoon of water. Place the pot on medium low heat while stirring occasionally.

  • Once the rhubarb is tender and any residual liquid has reduced, add in the fresh strawberries. Stir together for a minute or two and remove from the heat and allow to cool.

  • Set aside.

  • Step 3

    Once the Danish have fully thawed, fold the corners of the Danish underneath to create a rounded shape. Place inside of the ring molds. Bake for 16-18 minutes

  • Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5-10 minutes before removing from the molds.

  • Step 4

    Once cooled sufficiently, top with strawberry rhubarb compote and serve with a quenelle of whipped cream and creme anglaise.
