Spiced Fig & Brandy Ice Cream
Oh this Ice Cream really tastes so Christmassy! It’s really delicious and beautiful. The perfect summer treat (even though summer isn’t going to be very hot in Melb this year haha). Just look at this beautiful photo Matt took! Those figs! Yummmm.
Serves 4-6 (depends on how much you serve per person haha).
Ingredients:
120 grams raw sugar
200 grams dried Turkish figs
25 grams Brandy
600 grams cream
3 egg yolks
20 grams glacé ginger
1. Blitz sugar in TM 5 sec, speed 9. Scrape down.
2. Add figs, ginger & brandy into TM, mix 20 sec, speed 7. Scrape out into separate bowl and set aside. Don't wash bowl.
3. Add cream & egg yolks, cook 6 minutes, 90 degrees, speed 2.
