Giglio's Fruit Salad [T] Recipe
Ingredients:
8 plums, pitted and sliced 6 peaches, pitted, peeled, and 1 sliced 1 banana, peeled and sliced 1/2 cup grapes, seedless or seeded 1/2 cup champagne or dry sparkling 1 wine (or riesling) 1/2 hot pepper, seeded and cut 1 in two pieces 1 head boston lettuce, torn 1 into small pieces 1/2 cup rice dream
Instructions:
From Cooking From an Italian Garden, by Paola Scaravelli (Holt, Rinehart, & Winston: 1984) a vegetarian but very high fat cookbook - ADAPTED
Put fruit in a bowl, drain and reserve juice.
Put champagne and the hot pepper in a small saucepan, bring to a boil and remove from heat. Discard hot pepper and let champagne sit for 10 minutes. Combine fruit and lettuce in a salad bowl or individual salad bowls. Add Rice Dream to cooled champagne and mix well. Pour over salad and serve immediately.
The original recipe called for heavy cream, and I have tested it with Rice Dream. It tastes great, but Rice Dream does have fat. I have not tried low fat soy milk (can't find it, for one thing), but the vanilla flavor would probably be perfect. It is also good, though not as good, without a cream substitute at all. A sweeter wine such as Riesling is better without Rice Dream.
NOTE: boil the wine longer if you want all of the alcohol out. I don't serve this to children or alcoholic friends. Most of it seems to be gone, however.
