Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

100 ml (3 1/2 fluid ounces) whiskey
140 ml (1/4 pint) full-fat milk
285 ml (1/2 pint) double cream
6 medium egg yolks
55 g (2 ounces) clear honey
Baked Figs

Steps:

  • 1. Heat a heavy-bottomed saucepan. Add 75 ml (2 3/4 fl oz) of the whisky and flame to burn off the alcohol. Once the flames have died down, stir in the milk and cream. While this is coming to a boil, whisk the egg yolks and honey together with a standing or handheld mixer until they have doubled in size and become fluffy.
  • 2. Take the milk and cream off the heat and pour half onto the egg yolks. Whisk until combined, then put to one side.
  • 3. Put the remainder of the milk and cream back onto the heat and, when it is boiling, add the egg mixture, turn down the heat and whisk constantly for approximately 1 minute.
  • 4. Pour into a large bowl to lower the mixture's temperature and stir in the last 25 ml (3/4 fl oz) whiskey. Cover and chill.
  • 5. Once thoroughly cool, churn in an ice-cream machine. Alternatively, pour into a freezerproof container, put in the freezer and beat every 20 minutes until set.
  • 6. Place the warm figs in 6 shallow bowls or on 6 plates, pour over some syrup and put a scoop of honey and whiskey ice-cream in the centre.

This recipe is a total flop. The figs were mushy and the ice cream was icy.

I was disappointed with the whiskey ice cream. It didn't have much flavor.

The recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a matter of personal preference.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my figs turned out a bit dry. The ice cream was delicious, though.

I followed the recipe exactly and the results were amazing. The figs were tender and juicy, and the honey and whiskey ice cream was the perfect finishing touch.

This recipe is a bit time-consuming, but it's definitely worth the effort. The figs are perfectly cooked and the whiskey ice cream is out of this world.

I love the combination of sweet and savory in this dish. The figs are sweet and caramelized, while the whiskey ice cream is slightly smoky and boozy.

This dessert is perfect for a special occasion. It's elegant and impressive, but it's also surprisingly easy to make.

I'm not usually a fan of figs, but this recipe changed my mind. The figs were so tender and flavorful, and the honey and whiskey ice cream was the perfect complement.

This recipe was a delightful surprise! The combination of sweet figs, rich honey, and boozy whiskey ice cream was absolutely divine. The figs were perfectly caramelized and the ice cream was smooth and creamy with just the right amount of whiskey fla
