Lent is a few days away and I haven’t made ice cream in a while. Naomi picked up some extra cream yesterday.<\/p>\n
1 1\/2 cups milk
\n3\/4 cup sugar (Rapadura or Sucanat)
\n1\/8 teaspoon salt
\n3 egg yolks
\n2 Tbsp vanilla
\n2 cups heavy (whipping) cream<\/p>\n
Put the cream in the freezer now and you’ll get a better chill.\u00a0 Make sure you don’t freeze it too much or it won’t come out of the bottle.<\/p>\n
Scald the milk. If you’ve got a candy thermometer or even a grill thermometer, take the milk up slowly to about 140 degrees F.\u00a0 You may see small bubbles around the edge of the pot.<\/p>\n
Add the sugar and salt and stir until dissovled.<\/p>\n
Beat the egg yolks and pour the milk over them.\u00a0 Do it slowly so as not to cook the egg yolks.<\/p>\n
Beat all this together pretty well then\u00a0 put it into a double boiler and cook until it thickens.\u00a0 Stir frequently and watch the sides unless you like lumpy ice cream.<\/p>\n
Stir in the vanilla.<\/p>\n
For better results, chill this mixture in the fridge (or carefully in the freezer).<\/p>\n
Get the ice cream churn ready to go.<\/p>\n
Fold in the cream with a spatula.<\/p>\n
Churn the ice cream.\u00a0 This takes about 25 minutes in mine.\u00a0 When things start to firm up, you can add chocolate chips, fruit, whatever you please.\u00a0 I find it helps to freeze these ingredients first also.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
