Peach Ice Cream Recipe From Cook For Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis

PEACH ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Mix chopped peaches with 1/2 cup sugar in a medium sized bowl. Allow to set for about 15 minutes so the peach pieces release their juices.
• Blend peaches up in a blender or food processor until nice and smooth. (Add 1/4 cup of your whole milk if you need more liquid to blend it up)
• In a large bowl combine peach mixture with heavy cream, whole milk, vanilla extract, and remaining 3/4 cup sugar. Set aside.
• Get out your freezer bowl and start running your ice cream maker. Pour the peach mixture into the running ice cream maker. And allow to run according to manufactures instructions (Mine is about 25-30 minutes.)
• Serve now for soft serve ice cream.
• For scoopable ice cream, scoop the peach ice cream into a bread loaf pan and cover with plastic wrap. Place in the freezer for 6 hours up to overnight. Then scoop and serve.

JACQUELINE KENNEDY ONASSIS' CREME BRULEE

Steps:

• In upper part of double boiler, heat 3 cups of heavy cream with the vanilla bean. In a bowl, beat 6 tablespoons of sugar with the egg yolks and eggs until light and creamy. Take out the vanilla bean, and stir the warm cream into the yolks very carefully and slowly. Return the mixture to the double boiler, over boiling water. Stir constantly until the custard coats the spoon. Then put into a glass serving dish and place it in the refrigerator to set. When ready to serve, cover the top of the custard completely with brown sugar, using 1/2 cup or more. Place the dish on a bowl of crushed ice and place custard under broiler flame until sugar melts and caramelizes. Keep watching it, for the sugar will burn. Serve immediately.

PEACH ICE CREAM

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, heat cream and milk over medium-high until tiny bubbles begin to form around edges of pan, 2 to 3 minutes.
• While milk mixture heats, vigorously whisk together egg yolks, sugar, and salt in a large bowl until very thick and pale in color, about 2 minutes. Slowly add hot milk mixture to egg-yolk mixture, whisking constantly. Return mixture to saucepan and place over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until foam subsides and mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, 5 to 7 minutes. Pour mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl set in an ice bath. Let cool while cooking peaches.
• In a medium skillet, heat peaches and 2 tablespoons water over medium-high. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally, until peaches are softened, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes. Carefully transfer peaches and any accumulated juices to a blender and puree until smooth. You should have about 1 1/2 cups.
• Stir peach puree, lemon juice, and vanilla into cooled custard. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until cold, at least 2 hours.
• Process mixture in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions. Serve immediately, or transfer to a loaf pan and freeze, wrapped in plastic, up to 1 week. Let soften at room temperature 15 to 20 minutes before serving.

MANGO ICE CREAM, A FAVORITE OF JACQUELINE KENNEDY ONASSIS

Steps:

• You will need 6-8 very ripe mangoes, peeled and pitted and pureed to make 4 cups total.
• Scald the cream and then remove from heat.
• Stir in the sugar until it dissolves [you can use superfine sugar].
• Then, stir in the mango puree and the strained lime juice.
• Let cool in the refrigerator.
• Freeze in an ice cream machine, according to the manufacturer's directions.
• When the ice cream is ready, store it in a container in the freezer.
• You can serve this with julienned strips of mango over the top of each serving and/or a bit of freshly-grated ginger [microplane graters and zesters are the best for grating ginger].
• NOTE: This should be served the same day it is made so that it doesn't get too hard. You can scoop it out into the serving bowls a little ahead of time and leave in the refrigerator so the consistency can be gooey but firm. Chefs for the Royal Family shape the ice cream with 2 spoons into oval shapes.
• You can also add more egg yolks and good-quality vanilla or bourbon vanilla to taste.

PEACH ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Peel peaches over a large bowl to catch the juice. Halve and pit them and chop roughly. Place in the bowl and sprinkle with 1/2 cup of sugar, the salt and lemon juice and let them sit for 30 minutes.
• While peaches macerate, put cream and remaining sugar in saucepan with vanilla bean or vanilla. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring frequently to keep from scorching, until the sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and cool. Discard vanilla bean.
• Pour cream over peaches and mix thoroughly. Taste to see if it needs more sugar. (This will depend on the peaches.) Refrigerate until chilled.
• Pour the mixture into an ice-cream machine and freeze according to the manufacturer's directions until set but not quite hard. (If serving immediately, freeze harder.) Pack the ice cream into a bowl or mold to completely solidify. When it has hardened, dip mold into hot water or wrap in a hot towel and invert onto a serving platter. Or, simply scoop and serve.

PEACH ICE CREAM RECIPE FROM COOK FOR JACQUELINE KENNEDY ONASSIS

Steps:

• Scald the cream, then take the pan off the heat and stir in the sugar until it is dissolved.
• Stir in the peaches and any peach juice in the bowl.
• Add the strained lemon juice.
• Let cool. Then freeze in an ice cream maker, according to the manufacturer's instructions.
• Note from Marta Sgubin: I tried adding a little peach brandy to this but decided I preferred the pure flavor. If you like, you can try it, but don't add too much or the alcohol could prevent the custard from freezing.
