Creamy ‘n’ Dreamy Canistel Ice Cream
I don’t typically post recipes with hard-to-source ingredients, but this recipe is a must. My dear friend Robbin Russell who moonlighted as my pastry chef for last week’s Underground Supper Club, was the creator of this life-altering deliciousness. The canistel fruit we used for this ice cream is a bit esoteric, but if you are in South Florida, go to a farmers market and you will find it. You want it soooooo ripe that it is almost moldy.
If you are elsewhere, don’t write me off just yet, I do give substitutions at the bottom!
Miami: For sources for this fruit, head to Pinecrest Gardens and look for Bee Heaven or LNB Farms….they will have it!
Creamy ‘N’ Dreamy Canistel Ice Cream
Ingredients:
1- 15oz can full fat coconut milk
3 farm fresh eggs
5-6 Tablespoons organic cane sugar
1-1/4 cup ripe canistel fruit, thin skins and seeds removed*
1 teaspoon high quality vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon fresh grated nutmeg
A pinch of salt
