One of my favorite desserts is a fruit crumble. I love watching the fruit bubbling around the buttery, slightly salty crumb topping as it's taken out of the oven. It's a versatile dessert that showcases seasonal fruits beautifully and appreciated by most everyone.
I prefer crumbles to crisps as the former is flour-based with no oats so lighter in texture and really allows the fruit to take center stage. Nuts added can add lovely flavor and complexity.
The rose in this recipe adds an intriguing twist to the more traditional strawberry and rhubarb combination and gives an overall prettiness to the dish.
Another of our recipes for the St. Patrick's Day holiday; Guinness Star Anise Braised Beef Short Ribs featuring Coco Fine Foods Star Anise and Wood Smoked Salt.
The licorice and warm spice notes of our Star Anise, the smokiness of Wood Smoked Salt combined with the richness of the Guinness stout creates a deeply flavorful short-rib braise ideal for this St. Patrick's day holiday or most any cozy winter gathering.
