Created by the Great Escoffier in 1892 |

|
4 fresh firm peaches (or use canned halves but it ain't the same)
2 cups water
Best vanilla ice cream
Sauce:
Punnet of fresh or 200 grms frozen raspberries
1 Tbls. icing sugar
|
Simmer peaches in boiling water for about five minutes.
Plunge peaches into cold water.
When cold, peel, halve and carefully remove stones.
Serve peaches in glass dishes with a topping of ice cream and the raspberry sauce.
Sauce:
Push raspberries through a strainer, sweeten with icing sugar. Do not whizz raspberries or the pips will make the sauce bitter.
