Blurb: There's a French bakery at Stanford's on-campus shopping center named La Baguette, and I adore French food. Anyway, they'd always had this cup of.. strawberry stuff called strawberry romanoff, and it's like.. $4.45 for a small cup. I figured it was a little on the pricey side for a dessert-snack that didn't last that long, so I went online and found millions of recipes and spent most of a summer experimenting with making romanoffs. This isn't as splendid-looking as the Stanford romanoffs, but god, the taste is the same. It's been a while since I've made one, but they were so good so I'm sharing the recipe (or at least what I remember of it). This is really good. And if you ever stop by Stanford University, I highly recommend paying a visit to La Baguette. :]
Uhh.. what is it? Basically a rich milkshake.
What you need:
· Fresh strawberries.
· Whipped cream.
· Egg white (I used one per cup).
· Cubed ice or crushed ice (optional).
· Blender.
· Knife.
What you do:
Optional step: If you're using cubed ice, place it in blender and blend until it's crushed. Place aside for later, but don't let it melt. :p
1. First, wash strawberries and cut off the leafy-thingies-part. (rofl, I'm eloquent.)
2. Fill blender about halfway with strawberries; cut up remaining strawberries into small pieces.
3. Add desired amount of whipped cream to blender; blend strawberries and whipped cream until a light pink color.
4. Separately, separate the yolk and white of an egg; pour egg white into cup. (You'll be eating/drinking it raw, btw. I don't know or care wth you do with the yolk, haha.)
5. Pour strawberry & whipped cream mix into cup over the egg white; add small strawberry pieces and crushed ice, if desired.
6. Mix egg white and rest of concoction thoroughly; add more whipped cream if desired.
7. Grab a spoon or straw and enjoy.
