" wild foods and Wine challenge"- Mulberries edition

Break out those ice cream makers folks!

We tried this recipe tonight & it was so good! Perfect for this humid summer heat in Ohio.
Mulberry Ice cream ("borrowed" from Fiery foods)

1 cup half and half 1 cup whipping cream 4 egg yolks
3/4 cup sugar( "to taste" depending on berry sweetness)
2 cups mashed & pureed mulberries- be sure to pick off the stems!
In a saucepan heat the half and half being sure not to boil it. In a bowl whisk together the whipping cream and the egg yolks. SLOWLY pour the heated half and half into the egg mixture and whisk mix till smooth. Return it to the saucepan and add the sugar cooking over medium heat and stirring continuosly till mix coats the back of the spoon- about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool in fridge for 30 minutes.
Now add your mulberry puree and mix well. Now process this in your icecream maker per manufacturers instructions. 4-6 servings for normal people...
So yummy! and the kids had purple tongues which sent them into bursts of giggles. Enjoy!
