English Dessert: Blackberry Fool

cookpad.japan @cookpad_jp

I used some berries that I picked to make a fool that suits my taste. The basic fool is a mixture of whipped cream and puréed fruit. Mascarpone, cream cheese, or custard may be added sometimes. It has many different variations.

Step 6: It looks pretty if you stop mixing at a point where it still has a marble pattern instead of being combined all the way.
Remove blackberry seeds by straining them to make them smooth. Use plenty of the fruit sauce.
Use 2/3 of the sauce or all of the sauce, depending on how sweet and fruity you want your fool to be. The leftovers can be stored in a freezer.
Adjust the amount of sugar to your preference, or the kind of fruit you're using. Recipe by KT121

Ingredients

4 servings
  1. 150 gramsBlackberries, or other fruit (+ 1.5 tablespoons of sugar)
  2. 2 tspLemon juice
  3. 150 gramsStrained yogurt
  4. 150 mlHeavy whipping cream (+ 1 tablespoon of sugar)
  5. 1 dashVanilla extract

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Chill the heavy whipping cream and the yogurt well in preparation. Reserve a few blackberries for the garnish.

  2. 2

    Strain the remaining berries through a fine colander using a spoon to remove the seeds. Add and mix the strained fruit and juice, one and a half tablespoons of sugar, and the lemon juice.

  3. 3

    [When you are using different berries] Add the sugar and lemon juice to the berries and pour it in a food processor to make them into purée. You do not need to strain this mixture.

  4. 4

    Combine the strained yogurt, 2 tablespoons of sugar, vanilla extract, and 1/3 to 1/2 of the puréed berries to your preference.

  5. 5

    In a separate bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream and 1 tablespoon of sugar until soft peaks form. Mix it in with the yogurt mixture from Step 4.

  6. 6

    Drizzle in 1 tablespoon of the puréed fruit with a spoon and fold it gently, then serve it into a container.

  7. 7

    Garnish it with the berries you set aside earlier and you're done. It goes well with hard biscuits or sponge fingers biscuits.

  8. 8

    If you are not eating it right away, chill it in the refrigerator really well and enjoy it later.

  9. 9

    How to preserve a lot of blackberries: Spread the blackberries out onto a tray and put them in the freezer. Once they are frozen, transfer them into Ziploc bags. They can be stored in the freezer for a long time while preventing them from sticking to each other.
