Nesselrode Ice Cream Recipes

NESSELRODE ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Combine the milk and cream in a saucepan and bring barely to the simmer.
• Place the yolks and sugar in a heavy casserole. Beat with a wire whisk until pale yellow.
• Add about half a cup of the hot mixture to the egg-yolk mixture and beat rapidly. Add the remaining hot mixture, stirring rapidly. Heat slowly, stirring and scraping all around the bottom with a wooden spoon. Bring the mixture almost, but not quite, to the boil. The correct temperature on a thermometer is 180 degrees. This cooking will rid the custard of the raw taste of the yolks.
• Pour the mixture into a cold bowl. This will prevent the mixture from cooking further.
• Let cool. Add the Nesselrode mix and stir to blend.
• Pour the mixture into the container of an electric or handcranked ice-cream freezer. Freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Steps:

• Put the egg yolks in a mixing bowl and add one-quarter cup of sugar. Beat until golden yellow and slightly thickened. Add the hot milk mixture, stirring vigorously.
• Pour this liquid into a saucepan and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, until the custard coats the spoon with a film. The correct temperature on a thermometer is 180 degrees. Immediately pour the mixture into a cold mixing bowl so that it does not cook further. Add the Nesselrode mix and stir. Let cool.
• Beat the egg whites until foamy. Continue beating while gradually adding the remaining one-third cup of sugar. Beat until stiff and fold this into the custard mixture.
• Beat the cream until stiff and fold it into the custard. Pour the mixture into the pie shell. Cover and refrigerate several hours or overnight until set.
