Sieve the Ice Cream

Putting the cream through the sieve

The thick fresh cream thickened with the infusion of fresh raspberries is passed through a sieve before it is made into ice cream in the sabotiere.  The seeds and raspberry pulp remain in the sieve not the ice cream.

Celebrating National Ice Cream Day

Infusing the mashed raspberries in the cream

July is National Ice Cream month and July 22, 2012 was National Ice Cream day.  To celebrate, I chose to demonstrate the preparation of Fresh Raspberry Ice Cream.  In the picture, one can see how the acidity of the raspberries starts to thicken the cream as the flavor infused while the sabotiere is prepared with ice from an ice house.

Then Whay It

Whaying the Too make fresh Chees new

Once the Curde gathered, the next step was to whay it in a strainer.  I used one of my sieves and poured off the whey, a by-product of cheese making.  The whey contains vitamins, minerals, some proteins and a trace of the fat.  The “goodness” of the milk is in the curd of the cheese.

Time for a Fresh Cheese

Each year at the start of the milking season, I process a rennet stomach and start cheesemaking.  This year in addition to making my five gallon wheel of cheese with rennet, I tried a Gulielma Penn receipt (recipe) for Too make a fresh Cheese new.  This cheese is a soft cheese to be served to table and is made without the use of rennet.  The first step is to Take a quart of new milke and sett in one the fire……  as pictured.  More steps to follow.

An Ice Cream of Biscuits

Crumbled Naples Biscuits

This is my display table for the preparation of Biscuit Ice Cream.  In the pewter bowl is the cream that has been cooked with egg yolk, sugar syrup and cinnamon.  The wood bowl contains a few Naples Biscuits and some of the crumbs that will be added to infuse in the cream mixture.  The grater will be used to take off the rind of the lemon.
