Sweet Red Wine Ice Cream
- 6 large egg yolks
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup sweet red wine, such as Moscato Rosa, Sagrantino Passito or Recioto di Valpolicella
- In a heatproof bowl, mix the egg yolks.
- In a saucepan, combine the cream, milk and sugar and bring to a simmer over moderate heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar, about 4 minutes.
- Gradually whisk the hot cream into the eggs yolks; return the mixture to the saucepan.
- Cook over moderate heat, stirring constantly, until the custard is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 5 minutes; do not let the custard boil or it will curdle.
- Strain the custard into a bowl.
- Stir in the red wine.
- Cover and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, about 1 hour.
- Freeze in an ice cream freezer according to the manufacturers instructions.
- Cover and store in the freezer until serving time.
