Buttermilk Ice Cream With Rhubarb Compote Recipes

BUTTERMILK ICE CREAM WITH RHUBARB COMPOTE

Steps:

• Make the compote. Put the orange juice, sugar and vanilla in a pan over a low heat and stir until the sugar dissolves. Add the rhubarb and bring to a simmer, then remove from the heat. Cover and set aside for 10 minutes. The rhubarb pieces should break down into a compote in that time. If not, cover for another 5 minutes, then remove the vanilla pod. Chill for up to 3-4 days.
• Make the ice cream. Put the sugar, lemon zest and vanilla together in a pan. Add the cream and bring to a very gentle simmer on the hob, stirring, until the sugar dissolves. Cool completely, strain into a bowl and stir in the buttermilk.
• Churn the mixture in an ice cream maker for 15-20 minutes or, if you're not using one, allow to freeze for 2 hours before whisking the edges into the middle. Repeat 1 hour later, and 30 minutes after that, before allowing the ice cream to set in the freezer. Serve scoops of ice cream with the compote.

RHUBARB CRISP WITH BUTTERMILK ICE CREAM

Steps:

• For rhubarb:
• Preheat oven to 375°F. Mix all ingredients in large bowl to combine. Divide mixture among six 1-cup ramekins. Place ramekins on large baking sheet and bake rhubarb 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, prepare streusel:
