ICE CREAM
Ice cream mixtures can be as simple as pureed fruit, sugar and cream,
Philadelphia-style, or based on more complicated cooked custards, French-style.
Both are delicious, though French versions are slightly richer. The recipes which
follow are for both kinds. All use rich, heavy cream. If you prefer a lighter
lower-calorie dessert, substitute milk (whole or skim) or even yogurt for the
cream in any of these recipes. Always sample the mixtures before freezing and
adjust to your own taste.
Use these recipes as an inspiration for your own favorite ice creams. If you
like a little crunch, add a cup of chopped nuts, chocolate chips or candy to the
mixture, either before or after freezing, depending on whether you want the
crunch to be frozen, too. You can also add chopped fruit, fresh or dried, shredded
coconut, even marshmallows. It’s better to add these soft ingredients at the end
so they don’t become icy.
Banana
Ice
Cream
The riper the bananas, the more flavor.
4 ripe bananas
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
3/4
cup simple syrup
1 cup heavy cream
Working quickly to keep the bananas from darkening, peel and place
them in a food processor with the lemon juice. Puree until smooth. You should
have about 2 cups of puree. Stir in the simple syrup, then the cream.
Pour the mixture into the bowl of the machine and freeze about 20 minutes.
Makes about 1 quart.
