and was sweet and tender. The morels were almost marinated in rich seasoned butter and melted in your mouth. Meadowsweet (‘reine de pres’) foam, granita of coriander and pineapple sorbet. - a beautiful dessert...

is the best. I also love torrone, and granita. Sinis Artisan Glacier: Pineapple-basil is so refreshing and delicious. I also love apricot-rosemary. Havres-aux-Glaces: I agree with Carswell on the blood orange. My other favourite is...

Unfortunately, no. And it doesn’t travel well either. For those of you who have not experienced “water-ice” (or thought all ice was made of water), it is essentially a granita that is served in paper cups with...

Yeah, that’s the only reason for waiting, otherwise it doesn’t matter. The problem was the fresh pineapple. Cooking it before adding would have helped. If all else fails, freeze the jello that doesn’t set for a...

. The menu listed five courses, with two choices for the appetizer and dessert, three for the other two, and the “palate cleanser”. We were also served an amuse, and an extra dessert, which we recall as being a pineapple granita...

I discovered a forgotten ice-cream maker in the basement last fall, and I’ve been making sorbets and granitas all winter and spring. (No ice cream because of cholesterol issues.) Since we’re entering prime...

a lemon champagne granita in a big tuile cup, with fresh raspberries, blue berries, strawberries, and sliced kiwi. The fruit (as with the salad) was perfectly fresh. The granita was just right— lemony, not to sweet, grainy,...

adore my ice cream maker. They’re pretty cheap too. That said, you can make sorbet (Candy has posted a good pineapple sorbet recipe), semifreddo, or granita. And one of my favorite childhood treats...popsicles.

and only give him one! :) We rounded out the evening with espresso and the trio of ice cream (vanilla), sorbet (dark sour cherry) and granita (pineapple). All three good, but the sorbet and granita shined. Speaking of portion...

Rittenhouse that you can get Rosati’s, I think I had it before but I’ll have to eat some to find out. Thanks ...One last note, not water ice, but Fante’s (cookware shop) in the Italian Market has this granita, an...

was burata, served with a melange of red and green peppers with a bit of (Sardinian) bitter honey, which was delicious. Our dessert was a shared pineapple granita, perhaps a bit of a departure from the very Italian/Sardinian...

Mojitos are always a good idea. Or how about a mint granita? Infuse some water, lemon juice and sugar with the mint, then freeze. Scrape with a fork and voila! Or you could add it to chocolate ice cream. Also, cantaloupe and mint...
