About

I love passion fruit and wanted to come up with a dessert that highlighted its bold, refreshing flavor while also taming some of its acidity. The sugar and heavy cream help balance out some bitter notes in the passion fruit while also bringing forward its unique sweet-and-sour flavor. This slice is perfect for hot summer afternoons.

Method

1) Line a 9 by 4 in [23 by 10 cm] Pullman pan with a parchment sling.

2) In the bowl of a food processor fitted with a blade, pulse the granulated sugar and salt until the sugar is broken down into fine crystals, about 1 minute. Add the passion fruit purée and pulse again until combined, 20 seconds.

3) With the motor running, pour the heavy cream through the feed tube. Process j
