The Fruits of Passion
The Fruits of Passion
The best of fruit
naturally
It was in the heart of the Limousin, in a luscious green setting, that André Ponthier
founded the company that has borne his name for over 60 years.
Born in the family orchards, the love of fruit has never faded. From father to son, it has taken
on new dimensions, and new products have seen the light of day, more sophisticated
and ever more innovative, but always in line with the quality and tradition
that have always been the watchword of the Maison Ponthier.
The rigorous selection of fruits from accredited producers, traditional recipes based on a recognized
know-how, the personal commitment of Yves Ponthier and his team to tasting and testing,
awaken the senses and make all the difference.
Occupying, since 2001, 10.000 square metres of new laboratories,
the very latest in «high tech», the Maison Ponthier is perpetuating a gastronomic heritage
based on tradition, whilst respecting the environment.
Today, the Ponthier Patisserie range has the favours of all the chefs around the world who
continue to seek authenticity and defend the flavour of true regional produce.

The next day, place in a saucepan and bring to a temperature of 60 °C maximum, stirring constantly.
Pour into a recipient, leave to cool and store in the refrigerator. (Will keep 4 to 5 days).
Leave to drain in a sieve for 15 minutes before use.
These poached fruits can be used as a tart filling or in the composition of other desserts.
Result: 1 kg poached fruits + about 300g flavoured juice.
12
Soft semi-candied fruits
Use
These are recommended for decoration, tarts and desserts and for mousse preparations.
Method
Take the fruit out of the freezer the day before. Pour the sugar over it, cover with cling film. Leave to thaw for 12 hours mixing
delicately. Place the fruit in a saucepan and bring to the boil for a few seconds. Set aside.

Warm soufflé with methylcellulose A
Methylcellulose A is a by-product of WOOD and must be used in low concentrations to avoid a taste of paper.
It is a hot foaming agent and gelifying agent from 65°C.
Prepare the methylcellulose A: mix the powder very vigorously to mix in air. Leave it to rest.
Prepare a solution with 375 g water and 6.5 g methylcellulose A. Mix to homogenize. Add 125 g raspberry puree.
Mix well to obtain a dense paste. Place in the siphon with two gas cartridges. Store at ambient temperature.
Mould in ramekins, circles or on plates, place in the oven at 180° and serve immediately.

Liquid nitrogen
It is necessary to transfer the nitrogen into a small stainless steel recipient in order to facilitate
its handling whilst limiting evaporation and controlling the risk of burns and overpressure (nitrogen is an
inert gas at -196°C)
In sherbets
IIt allows you to make sherbets without adding sugar or water.
Pour the nitrogen into a double-sided recipient. Be careful to pour the nitrogen over the fruit puree whilst
stirring constantly: the puree will be transformed into sherbet.
Quick coating, instant setting
Fruits dipped in a fondant or a coating then immersed in nitrogen will harden immediately.
Make a fruit gel (strawberries, raspberries mango,....)
Fruit puree 500g, Icing sugar 50g, Carrageenans 10g
Mix all the ingredients together cold, then raise the temperature, bring to the boil and boil for 2 minutes.
Keep hot to dip in your cubes of fruit mousses, marshmallow… Put the items to be coated on a stick, dip in
the fruit gel, then dip into the nitrogen.
Quick meringues
For immediate crispiness.
Dip a skimmer in the nitrogen (this will allow you to release your meringues)
Lift then place on the skimmer the desired quantity of mousse (made in advance in a mixer or with a siphon)
and dip into the nitrogen for a few minutes.
Take out again, wait a few moments for the temperature to rise before eating to avoid the risk of burns.
Dragon effect
Raspberry meringue:
300g egg whites, 200g caster sugar, 100g raspberry coulis
Whisk the egg whites until stiff, mix in the sugar then complete with the coulis.
Spread on a tray, then dry in a drying chamber.
Place small meringues in the nitrogen and leave immersed for a few minutes before taking them out again.
Place in the mouth, close your mouth and blow hard! You will have smoke coming out of your nostrils…
The effect is guaranteed!

Spherification using alginates
Use
An extract of brown seaweeds, sodium alginates are vegetable gelling
agents.
Normal spherification
A fruit coulis to which approximately 1% of alginate has been added
plunged in different sized droplets into a 1% calcium solution will
enable you to make beads.
The contact of the alginate with the calcium instantly forms a film of jelly
that imprisons the liquid.
This phenomenon applies from the outside in and therefore the longer you
leave the bead in the bath of calcium the less liquid the core will be.
For immediate consumption.
Inverse spherification
A preparation naturally rich in calcium will allow you to make beads
without any additives.
A yoghurt or whipped cream mixed with fruit puree will enable you to
make beads.
In a bath of alginate of about 1%, drop in different sized droplets of fruit
coulis and yoghurt preparation.
The contact of the calcium with the alginate instantly forms a film of jelly
that imprisons the liquid.
The advantage of this technique is that it lasts longer and consumption
can be deferred by a few hours.

Gelification
Carrageenan
Of vegetable origin. For applications with the advantage
of holding up to 70°.
Proportions of 1 to 3% depending on the consistency required :
quite a supple, elastic jelly is obtained.
Method
Mix into the preparation cold, then bring to the boil and boil for 2 minutes to dissolve it.

Dehydratation of a gelified film
Soften 20 sheets of gelatine in cold water. Bring to the boil 1 litre of water and 200g sugar. Add the
drained gelatine, dissolve. Add 2 litres of raspberry puree. Filter.
On non-stick trays or plates covered with tightly stretched food paper, thinly spread the preparation
and dry for 2 to 3 hours in a drying chamber at 60°. Take out once the film is dry. Remains malleable
when warm and becomes brittle when cold. To make original shapes for decorative purposes or for
a wrapping for a dry preparation, fruit jelly, marshmallow....
N.B. for passion fruit puree, add 6 extra sheets of gelatine.
