fortheloveoffoodporn: Blackberry Ice Cream Yield: about 1 quart INGREDIENTS For the blackberry puree:12 oz. fresh blackberries, preferably organic¼ cup sugar (or ½ cup if the berries aren’t quite ripe) For the ice cream base:5 large egg yolks½ cup sugar, divided1¾ cups heavy cream¾ cup 1% or 2% milk¼ tsp. kosher salt DIRECTIONS To make the blackberry puree, combine the berries and sugar in a medium saucepan over medium heat.  Cook, stirring occasionally, until the berries have released most of their juices and the juice has reduced a bit, about 10 minutes.  Scoop half of the mixture into a bowl.  Set a fine mesh sieve over the bowl and add the remaining berry mixture to the sieve.  Press the mixture through the sieve to extract as much pulp and juice as possible while removing the seeds.  Stir the blackberry mixture together, cover, and chill.   To make the ice cream base, combine the egg yolks and ¼ cup of the sugar in a medium bowl and whisk briefly.  Combine the heavy cream, milk, salt and remaining ¼ cup sugar in a medium saucepan set over medium heat.  Bring just to a simmer.  Slowly pour the warm milk mixture into the bowl with the egg yolks, whisking constantly.  Return the entire mixture to the saucepan and place over medium heat.  Cook, stirring constantly and scraping the bottom of the pan, until the mixture thickens slightly and coats the back of a spoon (about 170˚-175˚ F).  Pour the custard through the mesh strainer into a clean bowl or storage container.  Let cool slightly, then cover and refrigerate until completely chilled.   When you are ready to churn the ice cream, whisk the blackberry puree mixture into the ice cream base.  Add the mixture to an ice cream maker and freeze according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
