Preparations

Almond/lime streusel

  • 46g butter
  • 46g sugar
  • 46g starch
  • 61g almond powder
  • ½ lime zest
  • 0.6g fleur de sel
Put the butter in a softened state.
Add the sugar, cornflour, almond flour and salt.

  • 25g sugar
  • 25g almond powder
  • 25g butter
  • 25g eggs
  • 100g pastry cream
  • 60g red berries
Make an almond cream by mixing the sugar, almond flour and butter, then the eggs.
Do not overwork the cream to avoid incorporating too much air. Smooth the cold pastry cream, mix the two creams together, then pipe the streusel in a circle over the top, place pieces of red fruit on the surface and bake for about 10 minutes at 165°C.

Red fruit compote

  • 300g red berries

Add the sugar, which has been previously mixed with the pectin.
Bring to a boil, then pour into a mold over the biscuit and freeze.

  • 75g sugar
  • 20g yolks

  • 200g whipped cream

Toast the milk powder in the oven at 140°C for a few minutes to give it a biscuity taste.
Boil the milk, cream, milk powder and pods.
Whisk the egg yolks with the sugar until pale.
Cook the cream. Add the softened gelatin.
Cool directly to 20°C.
Smooth the Bavarian cream and fold in the whipped cream.
