Marshmallow ice cream

Notable for using real marshmallow root, this recipe makes one quart. I use the Donvier hand-cranked ice cream maker.

You might want to use less vanilla which can mask the flavor of the marshmallow.

Ingredients

• 3 eggs
• 1 cup water
• 1/4 cup dried marshmallow root
• 1 cup milk
• 1/2 cup to 1 cup sugar, depending on taste
• 2 cups cream
• 1 tsp dried vanilla powder or vanilla extract.

Preparation

1. Steep marshmallow root in one cup of boiling water for 5 minutes. Strain and allow to cool for 5 minutes.
2. In a saucepan, beat together 3 eggs, 1 cup milk, and marshmallow tea.
3. Add sugar.
4. Heat and stir constantly on medium heat for about ten minutes as mixture thickens.
5. Chill by placing saucepan in a bowl of ice and stirring.
6. Add cream and vanilla.
7. Transfer to ice cream maker and stir until frozen.
