Earl Grey Tea Ice Cream
*Churn according to ice cream makers directions
Ingredients
2 cups whole milk
2 cups heavy cream
2 tbs earl grey tea, (or 2 earl grey tea bags)
1 tbs earl grey loose leaf tea, ground into a fine powder
1 cup granulated sugar
1 tbs vanilla extract
5 egg yolks
Directions
1| Prepare the night before: Stick freezer bowl in the back of the freezer the night before you plan to make ice cream.
2| Place 2 tbs earl grey tea in a tea sieve if you are using loose leaf tea. Take another tablespoon and grind using a spice grinder. Set aside.
3| Heat milk and heavy cream until it begins to simmer – do not let it boil. Remove from heat and add in tea, in sieve. Let it steep for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4| In the meantime, whisk yolks and sugar until pale in color and thick. When tea milk mixture is done steeping, gently stream into yolk/sugar mixture, whisking constantly after each addition. This is called tempering – the point is to prevent cooking of egg yolks. Have patience, and do this slowly.
5| Sprinkle in ground up early grey tea. Pour mixture back into a saucepan and heat until custard is thick. I like to use the spoon test – dip a wooden spoon into the mixture, and remove it. Run a finger in a line down the back of the wooden spoon. If the line remains visible, then the custard is thick enough.
6| Pour custard through a sieve into a bowl. Stir in extract. Cover with plastic wrap and immediately chill in fridge for at least 2 hours.
7| Pour into ice cream maker and churn according to instructions.
8| Pour churned ice cream into an airtight container and freezer for another few hours.
9| Serve with chocolate chip cookies and waffle cones!
