STAR ANISE ICE CREAM



Star Anise Ice Cream image

Star anise's licorice-like flavor is what sets this ice cream apart. This version is adapted from the one served at Geordy's restaurant in San Francisco, where the custard is made with all cream, no milk. Time given does not include chilling time for the custard. For the freezing time I'm going by my ice cream machine, yours may be different.

PEAR-STAR ANISE ICE CREAM



Pear-Star Anise Ice Cream image

I can't decide whether I love the color-a pale celadon-or the exotic flavor of this ice cream more. The pear causes the base to have a thinner consistency than some other ice creams have before freezing, but the final texture is lovely. It's hard to peg the flavor as star anise in the ice cream, because the spice mellows with the cold and the cream, but it's addictive. This isn't a scoop-in-a-cone kind of dessert, but an elegant cookie on the side would be nice.

Yield makes 1 quart

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups heavy cream
2 cups milk
1 teaspoon Kosher salt
1 cup sugar
6 pods star anise, crushed
8 ripe pears, such as Bartlett
8 large fresh egg yolks, at room temperature
1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Combine the cream, milk, salt, and sugar in a large saucepan and bring to a boil. Add the star anise and immediately remove from the heat. Allow the cream mixture to steep for about 30 minutes.
  • Stem and core the pears, then pulse in the food processor until you get a chunky purée. Strain the purée by pushing through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing on the solids with a spatula or the bottom of a ladle. You should end up with about 2 cups of liquid. Discard the solids. Put the pear liquid in a saucepan and cook over high heat, stirring frequently, until reduced by half, about 10 minutes.
  • Add the pear syrup to the cream mixture and bring to a boil over high heat.
  • While that mixture heats, place the egg yolks in a large heatproof bowl. Once the cream mixture has reached a rapid boil, remove from the heat and pour approximately 1 cup of the liquid over the yolks, whisking furiously. After the cream mixture is fully incorporated and the yolks are tempered, pour in the remaining cream mixture, whisking constantly as you do. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean container. Add the vanilla and stir to combine. Refrigerate until completely cold, then pour into an ice cream maker and freeze according to the manufacturer's directions.

Tips:

  • Use a high-quality ice cream. This will make a big difference in the final product. Look for an ice cream that is smooth, creamy, and flavorful.
  • Freeze the ice cream before assembling the sandwiches. This will help them hold their shape and prevent them from getting messy.
  • Use a variety of toppings. This will add flavor and visual interest to your sandwiches. Some popular options include cookies, candy, fruit, and nuts.
  • Get creative with your flavor combinations. There are endless possibilities when it comes to ice cream sandwich flavors. Experiment with different flavors of ice cream, toppings, and cookies to find your favorites.

Conclusion:

Ice cream sandwiches are a delicious and refreshing treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your own personal preferences. With a little creativity, you can create ice cream sandwiches that are both beautiful and delicious. So next time you are looking for a sweet treat, give ice cream sandwiches a try. You won't be disappointed!
