Raspberries, no ginger, 4 yolks
Ingredients
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup whole milk
- Peels of two large lemons, removed with a vegetable peeler
- 3 tablespoons minced ginger
- 3 1/2 cups blackberries (about 18 ounces)
- 1 1/4 cup sugar, divided
- 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
- 6 egg yolks
- 1.In a heavy saucepan, bring cream and milk to a simmer. Stir in lemon peels and ginger, cover, and remove from heat. Let steep for 1 hour.
- 2.Purée blackberries in a blender or food processor just until they break apart into a liquid and no large chunks remain (see note). Slowly pour purée through a strainer and gently stir with a fork or whisk. Measure out 1 1/2 cups strained juice and discard blackberry pulp.
- 3.In a heavy saucepan, bring strained blackberry juice to a simmer on medium heat and reduce to 1/2 cup, stirring frequently. Stir in 1/2 cup sugar and 1/4 teaspoon salt until dissolved. Transfer to a small container and chill in refrigerator.
- 4.In a clean, heavy saucepan, whisk together 3/4 cups sugar with egg yolks until pale in color and thickened. When dairy finishes steeping, pour through a strainer into pot and whisk to combine with yolk-sugar mixture. Put saucepan on medium heat and cook, stirring frequently, until a custard forms on the back of a spoon, but a finger swiped across the back leaves a clean line. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt. Pour through a stainer into an airtight container and refrigerate overnight.
- 5.The next day, churn in ice cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions. While ice cream is churning, remove blackberry syrup from freezer and stir to loosen. Transfer 1/3 of finished ice cream into an airtight container, then quickly spread on half of syrup. Repeat, and top off with last 1/3 of ice cream. Chill in freezer until firm, at least three hours, preferably longer.
