Goat Cheese Ice Cream
- 1 1/2 cups (375 ml) whole milk
- 2/3 cup (130 g) sugar
- 8 ounces (230 g) fresh goat cheese
- 6 large egg yolks
- Warm the milk and sugar in a medium saucepan.
- While the milk is warming, crumble the goat cheese into a large bowl and set a mesh strainer on top.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks.
- Slowly pour the warm mixture into the egg yolks, whisking constantly, then scrape the warmed egg yolks back into the saucepan.
- Stir the mixture constantly over medium heat with a heatproof spatula, scraping the bottom as you stir, until the mixture thickens and coats the spatula.
- Pour the custard through the strainer and stir it into the goat cheese.
- Keep stirring until the cheese is melted, then stir until cool over an ice bath.
- Chill the mixture thoroughly in the refrigerator, then freeze it in your ice cream maker according to the manufacturers instructions.
- Mix the cheese course and dessert by serving Goat Cheese Ice Cream with Honey and Walnuts.
- Toast some very delicious walnut halves (see page 13) and let cool.
- To serve, drizzle a scoop of Goat Cheese Ice Cream with strongly flavored honey (I like chestnut or lavender honey).
- Scatter the toasted walnut halves over the top.
