STRAWBERRY AND ALMOND CREAM PARFAIT

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together sugar, flour and egg yolks until thick and smooth, 3 to 5 minutes.
• In a medium pot, bring the milk and vanilla bean to a gentle boil. Pour about half of the milk mixture over the eggs whisking constantly. Pour the whole mix back into the pot and place the pot back over low heat, stirring with a wooden spoon, until the mixture thickens, 3 to 5 minutes. Note: you must stir this mixture constantly, scraping the bottom as you stir, so the flour doesn't stick to the bottom and burn.
• Remove the pot from the stove and whisk in the marzipan. Pour the mixture onto a baking sheet lined with plastic wrap and cover it with a coating of plastic wrap. Place the tray in the refrigerator to cool.
• In a medium skillet over low heat, melt the granulated sugar. Spray a tray with a light coating of nonstick spray. Spray the end of a wooden spoon as well. When the sugar turns light brown, add the almonds and stir to coat them with the sugar. Spoon the almonds on to the baking sheet and sprinkle lightly with salt.
• When the almond cream has cooled, remove and discard the vanilla bean and place the pastry cream in a medium bowl. Whisk until it is smooth. In another medium bowl, toss the strawberries and brown sugar together.
• Place 4 to 6 glasses on a flat surface. Begin by spooning a thin layer of almond cream in the bottom of each. Sprinkle with a few almonds. Add a layer of the whipped cream. Top with a layer of strawberries. Repeat the layers until the glasses are full. Refrigerate for a while before serving or enjoy immediately.

FROZEN STRAWBERRY PIE

Steps:

• For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter the bottom and sides of a 10-inch pie dish and set side.
• In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, ginger and melted butter. The texture should resemble wet sand. Press the crumbs into an even layer in the bottom and up the sides of the pie dish. Use the bottom of a measuring cup or glass to pack the bottom crust firmly. Bake until the crust firms up and browns lightly, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside on a rack to cool completely.
• For the filling: In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks. Transfer to a medium bowl and refrigerate.
• In the same mixing bowl of the electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese on medium speed until smooth. Slowly pour in the condensed milk and continue to mix until incorporated and smooth. Add the lemon zest and juice and salt and beat on medium-high speed until combined, 1 to 2 minutes. If necessary, transfer the mixture to a large bowl to allow for the whipped cream. Use a rubber spatula to fold the raspberries into the filling mix, then fold in the whipped cream.
• To assemble: Spoon the filling into the completely cooled crust. Freeze the pie for at least 6 hours, up to 12 hours.
• For the topping: In a medium bowl, toss the strawberries with the brown sugar and vinegar. Remove the pie from the freezer, top with the strawberry mixture and serve.
