Lime and yuzu cream with sesame brittle

Simple Too, p. 280

For anyone who knows and loves the sweet and salty cheesecake from Simple, consider this the sequel. It’s sweet and salty – welcomingly sour as well, thanks to the yuzu – and, as with the first recipe, a dinner party dessert whose elements can all be made a day or two ahead. Ingredients note: Yuzu is a Japanese citrus fruit with an intensely aromatic fragrance and sharp, yet complex, flavour – a little goes a long way. You can easily find it online and in well-stocked supermarkets. Equal amounts of lemon and lime juice work well as a substitute.
