Honey Ice Cream
Report
Adapted from The Perfect Scoop The honey gives the ice cream a smooth texture, but be sure to add it after cooking the custard: honey is slightly acidic and can cause custards to curdle. Perception of sweetness changes if mixtures are cold, so you might want to taste the chilled ice cream custard before churning. If you’d like to add a tablespoon or two more of honey, you can. If it’s very thick, warming it slightly will help it incorporate. If you don’t have an ice cream maker, you can freeze this ice cream following the instructions here.

Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups (375ml) milk whole
- 1/4 cup (50g) sugar
- pinch salt
- 1 1/2 cups (375ml) heavy cream
- 5 egg large yolks
- 6 cup honey or 1/2 cup (125ml) mild-flavor honey, strongly flavoured such as chestnut or buckwheat, tablespoons (90 ml
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, warm the milk, sugar and salt.
- Pour the cream into a medium bowl and set a mesh strainer on top. Nest the bowl in a larger bowl half-filled with ice and some cold water, to make an ice bath
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks. Once the milk is warm, slowly pour half of the warm milk into the egg yolks, whisking constantly. Scrape the warmed egg yolks back into the saucepan.
- Over medium heat, stir the mixture constantly with a wooden spoon or heatproof spatula, scraping the bottom as you stir, until the mixture thickens and coats the spoon.
- Pour the custard through the strainer, stir for a minute or so, until tepid, then mix in the honey.
- Chill mixture overnight. The following day before churning, taste the custard and add additional honey, if desired, then freeze the mixture in your ice cream maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
