RED WINE ICE CREAM RECIPE

Steps:

• The first step in making our wine ice cream is to reduce the wine down to a syrup-y liquid. Pour your bottle of red wine into a large pot and simmer over low medium heat until it is reduced to one cup of liquid. This took about an hour for me, but it could be sooner, so you should keep an eye on yours. Once it has been reduced, set aside.
• In a medium pot, whisk together the brown sugar, and whipping cream. Cut your vanilla bean in half and scrape out that beautiful vanilla caviar into the pot. Add the bean pod to the pot as well.
• Stir constantly while cooking over medium heat until it begins to steam, but before it boils.
• Beat your egg yolks with a fork or with a mixer until they are light colored. Remove the vanilla bean pod from the cream and slowly add the cream into the egg yolks. It is important to add the cream to the eggs very slowly so that they do not curdle.
• Once you have successfully added the cream to the eggs, pour the mixture back into the pot and cook over medium heat until it thickens and turns in to a custard. If it sticks to the back of a wooden spoon, it is done. Remove from it from heat.
• Pour the mixture through a strainer and into a large bowl. Stir in the half and half and the reduced wine.
• Then sit back and serve yourself a glass of Red Wine Ice Cream alongside a glass of red wine!

ICE CREAM WITH RED WINE REDUCTION SAUCE AND FRESH FRUIT

Steps:

• Pour one bottle of red wine into a saucepan.
• Slice the vanilla bean lengthwise. (Do not substitue vanilla extract for the bean -- the flavor is not anywhere near the same or as good.).
• Add the vanilla bean, sugar and peppercorns and keep on a low, rolling boil until the liquid reduces to about a cup. (this will take around a half an hour).
• Remove from heat and allow to finish thickening.
• Pour sauce over sliced fresh fruit (I prefer peaches or mango) and all natural vanilla ice cream.
• The sauce will keep in the fridge for up to two weeks.

CHOCOLATE CHERRY RED WINE ICE CREAM RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the cherry red wine reduction: Add red wine and sugar to a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then immediately reduce to a bare simmer. Add the cherries and continue to simmer for about 5 minutes, until the mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spatula and leave a clean line when you drag your finger across. Immediately transfer the reduction to a heatproof bowl or glass measuring cup and let cool for about 15 minutes. Transfer to the refrigerator to chill completely.
• Make the ice cream base: Add the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla, and salt to a medium bowl and stir to combine. Set aside.
• Add the heavy cream to a large bowl. Using the whisk attachment on an electric hand mixer, whip the cream until stiff peaks form, 2-3 minutes.
• Gently fold about 1 cup (240 ml) of the whipped cream into the condensed milk mixture. Once combined, pour the condensed milk mixture into the bowl with the remaining whipped cream. Gently fold until no streaks remain.
• Pour the ice cream base into a 9 x 5-inch (23 x 12 cm) metal loaf pan and immediately transfer to the freezer for 2 hours.
• Remove the ice cream base from the freezer. Pour the chilled cherry red wine reduction over the ice cream and add the chopped dark chocolate. Use a butter knife to slowly swirl together. Return to freezer for another 1-2 hours, or overnight.
• Scoop and serve.
• Enjoy!

RED WINE POACHED PEAR FILLED WITH VANILLA ICE CREAM AND TOPPED WITH GRANOLA

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, add the wine, sugar, cloves, pears, cinnamon, vanilla and orange zest and bring to a simmer. Cut out a circle of parchment paper and fit this on top of the liquid to keep the pears submerged. Simmer the pears until fork-tender, flipping them once, about 40 minutes. Remove the pears from the wine with a slotted spoon and refrigerate for 10 minutes. Continue to reduce the wine mixture on high heat until it becomes syrupy, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and strain.
• Top each pear half with some ice cream, granola and a drizzle of the wine reduction. Finish your art with mint and devour it.

RED WINE ICE CREAM WITH WALNUTS AND CHERRIES

Steps:

• 1. Bring half and half with the cinnamon sticks, or flavoring just to a boil in a saucepan. Then remove from heat and let steep, uncovered for 30 minutes.
• 2. While the cinnamon steeps, simmer red grapes, vodka, half the anise extract and 1/2 cup sugar in a 1 quart saucepan, partially covered, until red grapes are tender. About 15 minutes.
• 3. Cool slightly, then puree mixture in a blender, scraping down sides occasionally (use caution when blending hot liquids), until smooth.
• 4. Whisk together yolks and remaining sugar in a bowl, then add half and half slowly.
• 5. Pour custard into 3 quart saucepan and cook over moderately low heat, stirring with a wooden spoon, until it registers 170F on thermometer, about 8 minutes.
• 6. Immediately pour custard through a fine-mesh sieve into a metal bowl.
• 7. Whisk in red wine puree with cinnamon, Chinese five spice, and cloves.
• 8. Now, add the red wine and the reserved anise extract along with the cherries, pureed red grapes, and walnuts to the mixture.
• 9. Chill with a plastic wrap cover, stirring occasionally, for approximately 1 1/2 hours. This step is important since you do not want ice crystals to form in the ice cream during preparation, so this means that the mixture should be completely cooled.
• 10. Freeze custard in ice cream maker (in batches if necessary).
• 11. Then transfer to an airtight container and put in freezer harden, about 12 hours. Do not open containers during this process to prevent ice crystals from forming.
