fennel ice cream
this treat made its debut at pizza night last week. a big hit. really sweet vanilla up front and some herbally, green anise at the end. the cream tasted so light with those flavors.
3 c. heavy cream and 2 c. milk got to enjoy the company of two bulbs of fresh fennel. after soaking for a day, i warmed the milk with 1 1/2 c. of sugar and some vanilla bean. after heating, i tempered the milk into 8 yolks.
the warming of the fennel made it taste less sharp and fresh, so i soaked two more fennel bulbs in the ice cream base for another day.
