Homemade Ice Cream
Although it can be made from just a few ingredients--cream, milk, eggs, sugar, and flavorings--there is something extra-special about homemade ice cream.
________________________________________
1-To get the most flavor from a vanilla bean, split it lengthwise with a sharp knife and scrape the seeds into the milk.
2-After the bean has steeped, remove the pod and rinse in cold water and pat dry.
"Used" vanilla beans are still powerfully aromatic, and can be stored in a canister of plain granulated sugar to make vanilla sugar.
3-Extracts, liqueurs and flavoring oils (citrus, peppermint, cinnamon) should be added after the custard has cooled slightly.
4-Add perfectly ripe fruits and berries to your ice cream base: sprinkle fruit with sugar and crush it with a potato masher before mixing it in. This adds much more flavor than plain chunks of fruit stirred into the mix.
5-To add nuts, chocolate, crumbled cookies, or whole berries, let the ice cream reach the consistency of soft-serve, and then stir in the garnishes; pack in airtight containers and freeze until firm.
Start with a simple ice cream base or crème Anglaise, and mix in the ripest summer fruits, high-quality chocolate (whether melted and/or cut into chunks), or toasted nuts to create your own flavors.
