Jijona nougat parfait: deliciously Christmas recipe

With the name of parfait (or with other equally common denominations, such as, for example, the case ofparfoi) we are faced with a wonderful cold dessert whose meaning would literally be "perfect", in its translation of the original French word.

Why that name? Possibly because its discoverer found that this peculiar and characteristic ice cream dessert is the result of an exact and precise combination of its ingredients, so that any failure or any other ingredient-or less-will result in a dish that would have nothing to do with the.

And it is that, indeed as you may have already imagined, it is a dessert of French origin, which was first elaborated in 1894. As we can see, it is a typical dessert that already has a lot of tradition.

We could define it effectively as a frozen dessert that is usually presented as a block or thick sheet. We find in it some basic characteristics easily distinguishable, as for example is its delicate texture and delicious creaminess. These conditions are achieved thanks to the integration of cream or milk cream (which have a high fat content).

Of course, despite being an ice cream dessert it differs from ice cream in that it tends not to crystallize, due mainly to its high content of cream or cream, and therefore in its greatest amount of fat.

Among the most popular and popular parfaits we can mention the exquisite fig parfait, which is usually served accompanied by hot chocolate above, which in contact with the cold tends to harden creating an almost magical symphony of crisp textures and contrasting flavors that combine perfectly.
