BERRY ‘PARFAIT’


-9
Housemade pastry cream, fresh berries and granola-

-Preparation: A custard-like housemade pastry cream (milk, sugar, eggs, cornstarch) is LAYERED with fresh berries and granola

-Served: COLD in a glass

-Why is parfait in quotations? 

The culinary definition of parfait varies regionally, but connotes a layered, dairy-based treat. Many Americans think of parfaits as containing yogurt (thanks McDonald’s dollar menu); this “parfait” is more in line with the traditional French, custard-style dessert.
