Talisker & Heather Honey Cranachan




Source of Recipe


Three Chimneys, Scotiland


Recipe Introduction


As prepared by Shirley Spear on NBC 'Today' with Matt Lauer & BBC2's 'Saturday Kitchen' with Gregg Wallace.

Heather honey and Talisker malt whisky is an unbeatable combination of flavours, perfect with raspberries, brambles and other soft fruits. Any honey or whisky can be used in this recipe, if these specific ingredients are not available easily.




List of Ingredients




Half a pint of fresh double cream
1 tabls of thick heather honey
1 generous tablespoonful Talisker malt whisky
1 heaped tablespoonful toasted** medium oatmeal (not "fine", "pinhead" oatmeal or rolled oats)


Recipe



Whisk the cream together with the honey and whisky until thick, but still floppy.

Fold in the oatmeal. This will thicken the cream a little more.

Pile on top of the soft fruits and serve.

**To toast oatmeal: spread a thin layer of medium oatmeal over a flat baking tray and leave in the bottom of a warm oven until it darkens in colour. Once cooled, the oatmeal can be stored in an airtight container and used when required.
