Recipe: Shortcake Biscuits with Rosé-Poached Rhubarb
The secret ingredient in Claudia Fleming’s shortcakes? Hard-boiled egg yolks. “They provide richness and act as a tenderizer,” the JBF Award–winning pastry chef told us. Since the yolks have lost moisture during cooking, less gluten develops in the dough, which results in more tender shortcakes. Fleming sandwiches hers around rosé-poached rhubarb and strawberry–white chocolate cream. Get the recipe here.
Recipe: Strawberry Shortcakes
We always relish the peak of strawberry season: the ruby-red fruit are a joy to eat and give a striking splash of color to summer desserts.
Crumbly shortcake is a classic backdrop for the berries, and we're excited to try this simple recipe, a rolled-and-shaped version from James Peterson's Baking. Use a biscuit cutter that's sharp and slices the dough cleanly. Forcing a dull cutter through the pastry will drag down the edges of your biscuits, compacting the dough and hindering it from rising in the oven.
