GRAPEFRUIT ZEST RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. Whisk together flour, baking powder and salt. Combine next 7 ingredients. Gradually stir flour mixture into yogurt mixture, then pour into a 9-in. round baking pan coated with cooking spray. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center of cake comes out clean, 25-30 minutes. Cool., For glaze, mix confectioners' sugar with enough grapefruit juice to reach desired consistency; drizzle glaze over top, allowing some to flow over sides. Top cake with grapefruit and mint if desired., Freeze option: Omit glaze. Securely wrap cooled cake and freeze. To use, thaw at room temperature. Prepare glaze; top as directed.

Steps:

• Bring cream, sugar, and grapefruit zest to a simmer in a large saucepan over medium-high, whisking occasionally, and cook (still whisking from time to time) until sugar is dissolved and cream is reduced by about a quarter (mixture should be just shy of 2 cups), 8–10 minutes.
• Remove pan from heat; immediately add grapefruit juice, lemon juice, and salt; whisk vigorously just until combined. Strain mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a large measuring glass or a small bowl or other container with a spout.
• Pour into 4 glasses, dividing evenly (about ½ cup each) and chill until set, at least 3 hours. Do ahead: Possets can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and keep chilled.
• Cook guava paste and ¼ cup water in small saucepan over medium, whisking vigorously, until paste is melted and mixture is smooth, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat and add lemon juice, whisking well.
• Spoon jelly over set possets (about 1½ Tbsp. per portion) and smooth surface with a spoon. Chill until jelly is cool, 10–15 minutes.
• Just before serving, sprinkle tops of possets with salt. Do ahead: Possets with jelly (but without sea salt) can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and keep chilled.
