Strawberry Ice Cream ◆ An Edwardian Recipe

Описание: ★ About this recipe: When it comes to ice cream, we're used to having ours served in a cone, tub or sundae glass. What we didn't realise was that these serving methods are actually fairly recent.
Ice cream, or 'cream ice' as it was originally called, has been around since the 1500s. From then right up until the 1920s (a century ago), ice cream would be frozen in a metal ice cream mould which would usually be intricately patterned and rounded, and then turned out onto a large serving dish where it would need to be dished up and eaten very quickly indeed.

This Edwardian recipe for 'strawberry cream ice' demonstrates this traditional method. You can find antique ice cream moulds (Edwardian and Victorian) on Ebay, but you can get the same effect by freezing your ice cream in a shaped silicone mould as we did.

Aside from the antique novelty of its' presentation, this strawberry ice cream really is gorgeous. It bursts with natural flavour and doesn't taste artificial or overpowering like most ready-made ice creams you can get from the supermarket. If you like strawberries and cream, this is the one for you. And despite requiring a little elbow grease (easily avoided if you own a blender and electric whisk), it's also quite easy to make! A great one for first-time ice cream makers (like us).
