I made my FIRST every ice cream and my first ...OK. I made my FIRST every ice cream and my first ever recipe from your site (see, told you I would eventually). I think I need to buy myself a thermometer though because I was kind of confused by what you meant by "coating the spoon" and I think I overheated the custard (Well, I KNOW I overheated it as I ended up with some "scrambled eggs")... But, I drained out the rest of the custard and I followed the process. Last night it didn't taste "amazing" as the texture was off a bit. But, now that it sat in my freezer in a ziplocked container it tastes great today. Oh, the local LCBO didn't have Aramagnac (sp?) so I used some Calvados I had lying around. Now to find some other ice cream recipes and add another 20 lbs over the summer ;)Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09802999504172315842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32288436.post-53293492351301414002007-03-18T16:46:00.000-04:002007-03-18T16:46:00.000-04:00Kristen- My ice cream maker is about 20 years old ...Kristen- My ice cream maker is about 20 years old and it's the kind where you freeze the tub adn then churn it by hand.

It is our absolute favorite ever. Actually, I think I have invented a flavor combination and that might be our new favorite, but we have to play with it some more. Anyway, this is great, and now I'm keep to try adding prunes to it because I, too, have often read about the supposedly unbeatable combination of armagnac and prunes.
