i cut the fresh figs into quarters and put them on the stove with some sugar. then i mashed them and strained them and added some lemon juice. warmed some milk, sugar and vanilla bean and mixed everything. chilled and churned.
it tastes so fig. when i was researching this i was looking at this fig aperitif called figoun. apparently its got vanilla, angelica- the stuff of chartreuse, oranges and red mandarins. hmm. don't know if i can get that around these parts, but i would be curious to have something in there with the fig gelato. something to add some other point of reference for depth.
