Sweet Cream Ice Cream With Toasted Wheat Berries Recipes

EASY SWEET CREAM ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Stir milk and sugar in a large bowl until sugar is dissolved. Slowly stir in heavy cream.
• Pour milk mixture into an ice cream maker and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions.

BLACKBERRY FOOL

Steps:

• Place the blackberries in a medium bowl and sprinkle with the granulated sugar, then drizzle with the vanilla. Toss lightly to evenly coat. Allow to steep for 10 minutes, then mash the blackberries until they release their juices and form a thick pulp.
• Combine the heavy cream and confectioners' sugar in another medium bowl. Use an electric stand or hand mixer or whisk to whip the cream to medium peaks. (When you lift the beater or whisk, the cream should hold a peak for a moment.)
• Pour the berry mixture over the cream and use a rubber spatula to gently fold until combined. You can leave streaks of the berry mixture or completely incorporate it. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate for up to 1 day. To serve, scoop into glasses or dishes and top with cookies if desired.

SUMMER BERRY ICE CREAM

Steps:

• In a bowl, mash berries with a fork or potato masher until just slightly chunky.
• In a saucepan over medium-low heat, bring cream to a simmer with 1/3 cup sugar and the salt. Taste berries and if they are very tart, add 2 tablespoons sugar to saucepan. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until sugar dissolves. Transfer to a bowl, stir in vodka and place in refrigerator or in an ice bath to chill.
• When cold, pour mixture into ice cream machine. Add berries and churn according to manufacturer's directions. Transfer to a container and freeze until solid, at least 2 hours. Let sit at room temperature for 5 to 10 minutes before serving, or in refrigerator for 15 to 30.

SWEET-CREAM ICE CREAM WITH TOASTED WHEAT BERRIES

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and sugar until well combined.
• Pour the cream into a medium pot set over low heat. Split the vanilla bean, scrape the seeds into the cream and add the pod to the pot. Heat until cream is scalded. Remove from heat and slowly whisk a small amount into the egg mixture. Slowly whisk the egg mixture into the cream mixture. Set aside to cool. Once cool, fold in the sour cream.
• Refrigerate for several hours or overnight. Strain into an ice-cream machine and spin to the desired consistency.
• Toast the wheat berries in a sauté pan over low heat until they pop, 4 to 6 minutes.
• To serve, place a large scoop of ice cream in a dish, sprinkle with a tablespoon of toasted wheat berries and some berries.
