Mixed Berry Gelée with Yogurt

Introduction

With this recipe we put into practice a technique we call overcooking, which firstly will allow us to obtain a very aromatic juice with an intense fresh-fruit flavour, and secondly, strawberries with a very special meaty texture.

40 blackberries

Step 1

Put 4 strawberries into the bottom of the glass and cover with yogurt. Repeat two or more times.

Step 2

On the top, arrange the red fruits cut into halves.

Step 3

Add the strawberry gelatine while still liquid and at room temperature.

Step 4

Leave to rest until the gelatine sets and decorate with the sprigs of fresh mint.

Notes

It is important that the strawberries are very ripe – even if they look a little bit past their best – so that they express all their sweetness and aromas. The prettiest strawberries can be reserved for decorating with the other berries. Remember that the strawberry gelatine must be cold when preparing it to serve.
