Episode incongruous when I was racing my rue Daguerre in late June, I made a funny address maniac who offered me to cook with him on his scooter. Okay I admit I was initially a little suspicious mode “Who is this guy who accosted me in the street while I shop” ;-) but it looked nice and basically I did not risk anything to go, I followed up his bike food. And I discovered chief Abdel Alaoui / actor of genius. After quickly inspected my bag, he took out enough to make a dessert with amazing hibiscus flowers (sometimes called roselle or carcadet by country) that I intended to roselle juice Fisheries and fruit salad for my dinner and the concocted in two-three movements of a swimming flat peaches at the Hibiscus. Abdel told me well we do not say “Poached” because it would mean that fisheries have cooked in syrup but “swim” because the syrup is cold when poured.

A recipe as I love them, super simple and super fast but thoroughly surprised. I so loved this dessert that I've redone 3 times since, each time with great success. I just adapted to my sauce by preparing it with nectarines and adding a little fresh mint. Abdel thank you for this delicious dessert and this time greedy unexpected!!!
