3 cups sugar |
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
10 cups half-and-half |
8 large eggs, beaten |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
4 1/2 cups fresh blackberries or 1 (1 lb) package fresh blackberries |
1 1/2 cups sugar |
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice |
fresh mint |
fresh blackberries |
Directions:
1. Combine first 3 ingredients in a large Dutch oven. 2. Whisk in half-and-half. 3. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, over medium-high heat. 4. Slowly whisk about 4 cups of hot mixture into beaten egg. 5. Add egg mixture to remaining hot mixture, whisking constantly, until mixture reaches 160°. 6. (Immediately remove it from heat to prevent curdling.) Let cool completely, stirring occasionally. 7. Stir in vanilla; chill 8 hours or overnight. 8. Combine blackberries and 1 1/2 cups sugar in a separate bowl; stir well. 9. Cover and chill 8 hours, stirring occasionally to dissolve sugar. 10. Stir in lemon juice. 11. Stir berry mixture into custard mixture. 12. Pour into container of a 4-quart ice-cream maker. 13. Freeze according to manufacturer's instructions; if recommended, pack freezer with additional ice and rock salt, and let stand 1 hour before serving. 14. Scoop into serving bowls; garnish, if desired. 15. Makes 1 gallon. 16. Note: To hasten cooling of custard mixture, partially fill sink with ice water to come about halfway up sides of Dutch oven. 17. Let pan remain in ice-water bath, stirring often until room temperature; chill. |
