Welcome to the world by Olivia Barry
Welcome to the world by Olivia Barry - this was Olivia's dessert from Great British Menu 2018. She said: This course is close to my heart as it represents my use of the NHS having had my two children on it.
I have based this dessert on two core ingredients, which are milk and stout. Stout is used for its high iron content, which is encouraged to help improve low blood-iron levels, a common occurrence during pregnancy and milk, as it is the first thing the child eats (drinks!).
The dish would consist of; stout ice cream, milk chocolate ganache, stout cake, milk crumble and a milk gel. If possible, I would also like to include a milk crisp, this would require 8 hours drying time so would need to be made overnight. I feel that the milk crisp will give the dish the crunch it needs. It would be useful to know which ice cream machine you have, as I only have a paco jet so would like to understand how the machine works beforehand.
