Today is National Ice Cream Day! President Ronald Reagan declared the third Sunday in July, the national day for celebrating ice cream in 1984. In the past two days, I have prepared two 1790 ice cream receipts. On Friday, fresh red currants were infused in the cream and then strained out prior to the current flavored sweetened cream being placed in the sabotiere.
Saturday, July 18th, the receipt was Fresh Raspberry ice cream. Fresh raspberries were mashed and the flavor and color was infused in the cream. There was no need for the use of cochineal in this receipt. The color and taste were both spectacular!
