Rum Raisin Enchantment – A Divine, Spirited Ice Cream Delight!
📋 Ingredients
● For the Rum-Soaked Raisins:
1/2 cup raisins
1/4 cup Caribbean rum
● For the Ice Cream:
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup whole milk
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
5 large egg yolks
2 tablespoons Caribbean rum
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 batch of Rum-Soaked Raisins (prepared above)
📝 Instructions
1: In a small bowl, combine the raisins and Caribbean rum; let soak for at least 1–2 hours or overnight for a richer rum flavor.
2: In a medium saucepan, gently heat the heavy cream, whole milk, sugar, and kosher salt over medium heat until warm but not boiling, stirring occasionally.
3: In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks until smooth; gradually add about 1/2 cup of the warm milk mixture to the yolks while whisking constantly to temper them, then slowly return the yolk mixture to the saucepan, stirring continuously.
4: Cook the custard over medium heat for 5–7 minutes until it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon; remove from heat and strain through a fine-mesh sieve.
5: Stir in 2 tablespoons of Caribbean rum and the ground nutmeg; allow the custard to cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
6: Once chilled, churn the custard in your ice cream maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions; during the last 5 minutes, add the rum-soaked raisins.
7: Transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 4 hours to firm up; serve in scoops or as a topping for your favorite dessert!
