INSTRUCTIONS
For Rum Cream: ============== In the top of a double boiler, blend the
egg yolks and sugar. Place this over boiling water and whisk until
warm to the touch. Add the butter, 1 or 2 pieces at a time. When all
of the butter has been incorporated, whisk until lightly thickened, 1
or 2 minutes longer. Remove from heat and cool, whisking occasionally.
When cool, gradually whisk in the rum and fold in about 1/3 cup of
whipped cream. Cut off the base and stem of the pineapple, reserving a
few small leaves for garnish. Quarter the pineapple lengthwise and
then remove the skin and core with a sharp knife. Slice each quarter
lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. To Assemble: ============
Arrange the pineapple slices on chilled plates, overlapping slightly.
Gently curl the cantaloupe slices in the shape of an "S" and place 2
pieces on each plate as garnish. Garnish with reserved pineapple
leaves. Spoon some of the rum cream over the pineapple and serve
remainder of the cream on the side. Source: New York's Master Chefs,
