Rosemary Ice Cream
This unique and refreshing rosemary ice cream is the perfect balance of sweet and savory.
Ingredients - Serves 6
- Salt - 1/4 teaspoon
- Vanilla extract - 1 teaspoon
- Egg yolks - 4
- Granulated sugar - 3/4 cup
- Heavy cream - 1 cup
- Whole milk - 2 cups
- Fresh rosemary - 2 sprigs
Let's Get Started
- In a saucepan, combine the milk, heavy cream, and rosemary sprigs. Heat over medium heat until it reaches a simmer. Remove from heat and let the rosemary infuse for 10 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.
- Slowly pour the warm milk mixture into the egg yolk mixture, whisking constantly to prevent curdling.
- Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens and coats the back of a spoon. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
- Remove from heat and strain the mixture to remove the rosemary sprigs. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Once chilled, pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- Transfer the churned ice cream to a lidded container and freeze for an additional 2-3 hours to firm up.
- Serve the rosemary ice cream in bowls or cones and enjoy!
