Recipes
Ice cream mixtures can be as simple as pureed fruit, sugar and cream, Philadelphia-style, or based on more
complicated cooked custards, French style. Both are delicious, though French versions are slightly richer. The
recipes which follow are for both kinds. All use rich, heavy cream. If you prefer a lighter, lower-calorie mixture,
substitute milk (whole or skim) or even yogurt for the cream in any of these recipe. Always sample the mixtures
before freezing and adjust to your own taste.
Use these simple recipes as an inspiration for your own favorite ice creams. If you like a little crunch, add a cup
of chopped nuts, chocolate chips or candy to a quart of mixture either before or after freezing, depending on
whether you want the crunch to be frozen, too. You can also add chopped fruit, fresh or dried, shredded coconut,
even marshmallows. It’s better to add these soft things at the end so they do not get icy.
