Posset At The Palace !

  • I love looking back at dishes I prepared for the royal family at Buckingham Palace. So many traditional British dishes that have such amazing history. This dessert has the strangest name. Imagine dining with The Queen and being asked if you would like some Posset!
    To most Brits posset is baby throw up, sorry to go there :) but this dessert is the complete opposite of its name. It's creamy, rich, elegant and the most delicious easiest to make dessert ever and contains just three ingredients, four if you count the amaretti biscuits on the base and I guess five if you count the yummy blueberry topping. Anyway, give it a try, I bet it will become one of your favorites too!

    Lemon Posset
    2 cups heavy cream
    ⅔ cup sugar
    1 TBS lemon zest
    Juice from 2 lemons
    2 cups crushed amaretti cookies
    1 cup blueberries
    2 TBS water
    1/2 tsp cornstarch
    Bring to a boil the cream, sugar, and lemon zest in medium saucepan. Stir and continue to boil until the mixture is reduced to 2 cups, this will take 5-10 minutes.
    Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the lemon juice. Divide the crushed cookies between the individual glasses and pour the lemon mix over the top carefully just to cover the cookies. Refrigerate until set. Pour the remaining lemon mix into the glasses and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
    Heat the blueberries with the water until boiling, mix the cornstarch with a little water and stir into the blueberries. Boil until the liquid begins to thicken. Set aside and cool. Spoon onto the possets before serving.

    Darren, many thanks for showing the world what a wonderful, delicious and varied foods we have here in the U.K. not to mention our rich history to boot. Most Americans think we eat Fish n Chips, Trifle and Shepherds Pie all the time but you show just how varied our cuisine is.
    Love you to make some more traditional U.K. desserts Eve’s pudding, Liverpool, Manchester, Yorkshire and Bakewell Tarts, Fools, Syllabubs, Cobblers and Crumbles, or Cherries Jubilee.
    Or delicious mains for example Hotpots, Raised Pies or varied game pies, Pie n Mash, Bubble n Squeak, Faggots or Beef Wellington.
    I know you concentrate on your years working for the Palaces but I’m sure most of the royals have eaten traditional British fare, I myself served most of the royals during my catering years in London 80s/90s.
    Keep going sir loving your posts chef.

      @@jenmagson9044 oh I don’t know, with good ingredients you can make an excellent Shepherd or Cottage Pie. I slow cook my mince beef or lamb with onions over night. Add some tiny bits of carrots and swede and cook for an hour or so. Let cool completely then make your mash potatoes. Use good potatoes, lashings of butter and some cream. Top over the cooked cooled mince then make points with the potatoes so whilst cooking they get all crispy and golden. I sometimes add cheese to the pots or sprinkle some good cheddar delicious 🤤

    I have always loved a good lemon or lime posset! So good to see its origins outside of Colonial Williamsburg where I first had it here in the States in the 70s.

    I have not been getting your vlogs. So I have missed you. When I am getting a little down, I watch you. You have away of putting us in a good mood. I want to try this Posset. God Bless you for being so kind. Thank You. 🌹🌹🌷🙏

    I follow my mother's recipe. She either served the biscuit on the side or once the posset is set, crushed biscuits around the rim. Then a few colourful berries and a sprig of mint in the middle as a decoration. It's much more simple, less time consuming and very beautiful.
