The minty and woodsy flavor of rosemary shines in this easy ice cream sweetened with honey.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 5 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 2 cups half and half
  • 32 to 42 rosemary sprigs
  • 8 large egg yolks
  • 2/3 cup honey
  • 1 Tablespoon sugar

Preparation:

In heavy saucepan combine the cream, half and half, and the rosemary. Bring mixture just to a boil and remove the pan from heat. Let mixture stand for 15 minutes.

In a bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, honey, and sugar. Add the cream mixture in a stream, whisking, and pour the mixture back into pan. Cook the custard over moderately low heat, stirring until it registers 170 degrees F on a candy thermometer. Strain through a fine sieve set over another bowl and let cool completely.

Freeze the custard in an ice cream machine according to manufacturer's direction.

Makes about 1-1/2 quarts
