Marshmallow
Sauce for Fruit |
This sauce was always served at The Nut Tree Restaurant in Fairfield,
California with the fresh pineapple appetizer. The pineapple was
cut so it looked whole. This sauce is lovely stuff with any fresh
fruit.
I’ve been making this for years without looking at the original
recipe, so this is somewhat different, but you can’t go wrong.
1 small jar of marshmallow cream
About 3/4 cup mayonnaise
About 2 teaspoons honey
About 1 teaspoon vanilla
About 2 -3 tablespoons orange juice
About 1 teaspoon grated fresh orange peel
Using just one beater in a hand held mixer, beat down the marshmallow
cream right in the jar, to make room for the other ingredients.
Add all the other ingredients, one at a time, beating in between
additions. Scrape the jar with a plastic spatula, mix a while longer,
store in the jar, in the fridge.
To prepare the pineapple: Cut the top and bottom off. Save the top.
Using a long serrated knife, that will reach all the way from top
to bottom and beyond, carefully cut the skin away from the fruit
without damaging the skin, remove the cylinder of fruit, slice,
realign stack of slices and carefully slip the skin back over the
sliced fruit and replace the top. Serve sauce in a small pitcher.
