The champagne parfait is the ideal pastry to celebrate your New Year's Eve. Delicious, easy to prepare and as customizable as you like, it adds a refined touch to your meals while pleasantly surprising your guests. Find out now how to make this exceptional dessert for your festive celebrations.
Champagne is synonymous with celebration, elegance and refinement. When incorporated into a dessert, it adds a touch of sophistication to the menu and enhances the flavors of the meal without weighing them down. Its light texture and subtle fragrance captivate guests' senses, offering them a unique taste experience. The champagne parfait is a particularly easy dessert to revisit with the right pastry utensil. It can be adapted to different meal styles (classic, gastronomic, modern...) and naturally finds its place at the end of a festive menu. You can easily incorporate red fruit, citrus fruit or even crispy cookies, depending on your guests' preferences. It's an original alternative to Yule logs, chocolate mousse and other end-of-year classics.
To make a champagne parfait for 6 people, you need:
- 4 egg yolks;
- 100 g sugar;
- 200 ml brut champagne;
- 250 ml full-fat liquid cream;
- a few raspberries or citrus zests for decoration.
To begin, whisk the egg yolks and sugar in a bowl until the mixture whitens. Add the champagne and place the bowl in a bain-marie. Continue whisking for around 8 minutes until light and frothy, then remove from the heat and leave to cool. At the same time, whip the cream until stiff and stiff. Gently fold into the champagne mixture using a spatula. Pour the mousse into verrines or parfait molds and freeze for at least 4 hours. Before serving, check the temperature with a kitchen thermometer, and garnish with a few fresh raspberries, a drizzle of coulis or a sprinkling of edible gold leaf for a festive touch. Each bite will have an airy texture, a subtle sweetness and an intoxicating fragrance.
Champagne parfaits are usually served at the end of a meal, accompanied by a semi-dry champagne or a quality sparkling wine. It's the ideal pastry to complete a menu centered around a light main course such as fish or roast poultry.
When it comes to beverages, choose a demi-sec champagne or a quality sparkling wine. The alcohol slightly enhances its sweetness, creating a captivating taste combination. Champagne's bubbles prolong the dessert's sensation of freshness and underline its fruity notes.
For perfect harmony, serve your parfait well chilled, garnished with a few raspberries, citrus zest or a coulis. You can also decorate it with an almond tuile, butter shortbread or fine meringue. These crunchy textures contrast nicely with the creamy sweetness of the dessert.
The iodized notes of the Champagne blanc de blancs go very well with a seafood platter, especially oysters.
