Recipe: Raspberry Ice-cream, Georgian (Gelado de Framboesas, Séc. XVIII).

6 egg yolks - 100g caster sugar - 300ml milk - 300ml double cream - 150g raspberries.

Beat the egg yolks to a froth with the sugar, add the milk and cream. Cook in low heat in a saucepan, until it has custard consistency. Take of the heat. Smash the raspberries and add the purée to the cream. Let the mixture cool down completely and freeze in a suitable container.

To avoid ice-crystals, I added cling film around the container.
