So what started out as a twitter joke with the amazing @DigitalBlonde I wanted to see what this would actually taste like, and I have to say its brilliant!!!
For the base of the ice cream
8 egg yolks
6 tbl spoons caster sugar
1 table spoon rock salt
1 table spoon cracked black pepper
500ml whole milk
In a pan heat your milk to just under boiling point.
While this is heating up, chuck your sugar and eggs together in a seperate bowl and whisk.
Pour your hot milk into the bowl with your egg mix and whisk continually.
Return the mix to the pan and gently heat while continuing to stir.
The mix will thicken and make a custard.
Let the custard cool before adding your salt and pepper. This is really important because if the mix is warm the salt will dissolve.
I tried a batch using normal salt but wanted to get salty crunchy bits.
Now lob it in your ice cream machine.
Done!
I served mine with some summer berries.
