Kitty Blueberry Icecream



Recently Elaine doesn’t want to eat fruit again, so I have to make it into juice or ice cream. At first, I made blueberry juice for her but she only taste it a few spoon and she refused the rest. So, hopefully by making this blueberry ice cream, she willingly to eat more blueberries. ^^

1 cup whole milk
1 cup heavy cream
½ tsp vanilla extract
350 gram Blueberries, make it puree
½ cup plus 3 tbs sugar

1.    Put milk, heavy cream and vanilla extract in the sauce pan, bring it just to a boil.
2.    Stir together ½ cup sugar and water in a pan until boil and make deep caramel syrup
3.    Whisk warm cream mixture to sugar mixture in a low heat, until sugar dissolve
4.    Beat egg with 3 tbs sugar and salt until increase ¾ volume and thickened ( 6-8 minutes with hand mixer )
5.    Put  step 4 into the egg mixture and transfer it back to the sauce pan
6.    Cook the mixture at moderate low heat and stir constantly until the mixture slightly thickened ( Do not let the mixture boil )
