Ingredients

Servings
  • 1/2 cup grapefruit blossom petals (a large handful)
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 4 egg large yolks
  • 3 Tbsp sugar
  • 1/3 cup white grapefruit juice freshly squeezed

Instructions

  1. Put the cream and the blossoms into a heavy bottomed sauce pan and stir to combine. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture just comes to a simmer. Turn off heat and let mixture cool to room temperature. Cover, put in the refrigerator, and leave for at least 8 hours (I chill it overnight), making sure that the flowers are immersed in the cream.
  2. Strain the cream through a fine mesh sieve. Measure out 1 1/2 cups. (You'll have a bit left over)
  3. Whisk the egg yolks and sugar together in a saucepan. Add the strained cream (1 1/2 cups) and the grapefruit juice.
  4. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture just comes to a slight simmer and thickens. Don't boil.
  5. Pour the thickened mixture into small glasses or cups, you should have four servings.
  6. Refrigerate until fully chilled, or overnight.
  7. Garnish with a blossom or a twist of grapefruit zest if you like.
