Grilled Nectarine-Bourbon Ice Cream
- Ready In:
- 40mins
- Ingredients:
- 9
- Yields:
-
1 1/2 quart
- Serves:
- 8-10
ingredients
- 1 quart heavy cream
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 5 egg yolks
- 1⁄4 cup Bourbon (such as Knob Creek or Woodford Reserve (or for me I'd use white rum)
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (if you want it kid-friendly, omit bourbon and add another 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract)
- 2 nectarines, halved and pitted
- 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
- chopped pecans, for garnish
directions
- In a saucepan, heat the heavy cream and 1 cup sugar over medium heat, stirring, until it simmers, about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk the egg yolks in a large bowl until frothy, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour the cream mixture into the yolks, whisking constantly, then pour into the saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until the mixture thickens, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Strain the cream mixture through a fine sieve into a stainless steel bowl, then stir in the bourbon and vanilla. Cover and refrigerate until completely chilled, about 1 hour.
- Preheat a grill to medium. Brush the nectarines with the oil and sprinkle with the remaining 1 teaspoon sugar. Grill cut side down until caramelized and just softened, about 5 minutes. Let cool, then finely chop.
- Pour the chilled cream mixture into an ice cream maker and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions. Add the nectarines during the last 5 minutes of freezing. Top with the pecans.
