Fresh vs Dried Verbena
- Fresh and dried lemon verbena leaves are not the same in terms of fragrancy. Drying significantly alters the aromatic profile, generally resulting in a less potent and more subtle scent compared to the fresh herb. A common practice is to freeze fresh lemon verbena during the season and use it all year long. It turns unappealing when frozen, but it won't lose its scent. Dried verbena is only good for bedtime infusions.
Ladyfingers / Biscuit Cuillère
- Preheat fan oven to 330ºF (160ºC). Sift the flour. Beat the egg whites with the cream of tartar and a third of the sugar on medium speed. Once foamy, increase to high speed and beat to firm peaks, gradually adding the remaining sugar. Reduce the speed, then add the egg yolks and mix swiftly until just combined. Gently fold in the sifted flour using a rubber spatula. Fill a greased mold, or pipe the mixture onto greased parchment paper or a silicone mat.
Baking
- Bake ladyfingers for about 18 minutes. Let cool onto a cooling rack
Lemon Verbena Lime Syrup
- Bring the water, sugar, and zest to a boil. Add the lemon verbena leaves, turn off the heat, cover, and let infuse for 15 minutes (or overnight). Strain and set aside.
Mascarpone Filling
- In a chilled mixing bowl, beat the cream, mascarpone, eggs, and sugar on medium speed until medium-firm peaks form.
Montage
- In a shallow dish, make the first layer using lemon spread, chopped poached lemons, or a mixture of crushed raspberries and strawberries. Top with the mascarpone filling. Add ladyfingers that have been dunked in syrup first. Add a layer of chopped strawberries and raspberries, then finish with the mascarpone filling. Dust with matcha tea, and decorate with more filling, red fruits, and verbena leaves. Chill to set — keep refrigerated for up to 3 days. Do not freeze. Enjoy!
