Have you ever wondered if
there was a healthful alternative to the sugar and
preservative filled ice cream you buy in the supermarkets?
If you have or if you would truly like to try homemade ice
cream then this is for you. I have a recipe for vanilla
ice cream, that will knock your socks off when you taste
it.
The first thing you need to
know is how to make your own 100% healthy and natural
vanilla extract. You might buy this from a good quality
store if you can find an unadulterated brand. To make your
own you値l need about a quart of milk, a vanilla bean
(available at most health food stores), and a teaspoon of
honey. You put the milk in a saucepan and heat on high
while you slice the vanilla bean lengthwise and in half.
Then put the halves of the
vanilla bean into the milk. Boil for around 15 to 20
minutes, then cook on medium heat for a half hour or until
the milk has a thin sheet of film on top.
Stir the mixture constantly
as it cooks to prevent burning. Cool the extract and
freeze in a plastic bottle or container. This extract will
last you for quite awhile since recipes call for only a
few teaspoons each. You should-if you plan to make the ice
cream anytime soon- save a cup of the extract in a
container in your refridgeratior. Whenever you want to
make more ice cream just get the extract out of the
freezer and thaw in the refridgerator until a few
tablespoons or so are thawed, then refreeze the rest
before it thaws out.
Now I値l give you my
vanilla ice cream recipe, follow the instructions
carefully and you値l get wonderful results.
Vanilla Ice Cream
You値l need: 3 eggs, with
the egg whites and yolks seperated, 1/2 cup honey, 4 cups
light cream, and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract.
1. In a medium size bowl
beat the yolks until smooth. Gradually add honey, beating
until well-blended and thick. In a different small bowl
beat the egg whites until stiff, stir beaten whites in
with the yolk and honey.
2. Then add the cream and
egg mixture together in a saucepan, cook on medium heat,
stirring constantly for 15 minutes.
3. Stir in vanilla extract,
and either process in an ice cream maker or just freeze in
a bucket container overnight. Serve with an ice cream
scoop.
This ice cream is rich,
creamy, natural, and very healthy I知 sure you値l
enjoy it.
