This week in supermarket we bought some peaches and they were all so ripe that I grabbed some from my children and decided to try Dorie Greenspan recipe. Some weeks ago it was introduced in Thuesdays with Dorie project ? These ice creams are very creamy, with a mild taste of honey and peach. Just we all agreed that next time I will puree all peaches, because those that I chopped became like little ice cristals and were very very cold ? And in the photo you can see what conditions I have almost all the time photographing my creations 😀
Honey-Peach Ice Cream
Time needed:
Yields: 4 servings
Ingredients:
1 cup = 247 ml
- 4 large (about 1 kg) ripe peaches, peeled and pitted
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 3 large egg yolks
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 tsps. pure vanilla extract
Directions:
- Coarsely chop half the peaches into 1 cm chunks and toss them into a small saucepan.
- Add the honey and bring to a boil, then lower the heat, cover the pan and cook, stirring occasionally until the peaches are soft but not mushy, about 10 minutes.
- Scrape the mixture into a blender or food processor and whir to puree. Set the peach puree aside while you make the custard.
- Bring the milk and cream to a boil in a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan.
- Meanwhile in a medium bowl, whisk the yolks and sugar together until very well blended and just slightly thickened.
- Still whisking, drizzle in about one third of the hot liquid – this will temper, or warm, the eggs so they do not curdle. Whisking all the while, slowly pour in the remaining liquid.
- Pour the custard back into the pan and cook over medium heat, stirring without stopping, until the custard thickens slightly. The custard should reach at least 75°C, but no more than 80°C.
- Immediately remove the pan from the heat and pour the custard into clean heatproof bowl. Stir in the vanilla and the peach puree.
- Refrigerate the custard until chilled before churning it into ice cream.
- Scrape the chilled custard into the bowl of an ice cream maker and churn according to manufacturer’s instructions.
- While the ice cream is churning, finely dice the remaining 2 peaches, then, just before the ice cream is thickened and ready, add the peaches and churn to bland.
- Pack the ice cream into a container and freeze it for at least 2 hours, until it is firm enough to scoop.
- Enjoy!

Crepes with ham and cheese
It’s easy and quick dinner. I’ve tried to make crepes with ham and cheese filling before, but I missed something. And when I tried this recipe I understood, that this is it I was looking for. And the secret ingredient to success is mayonnaise.
Pumpkin cutout cookies
I thought to bake these cookies for a long time, but… And one day I took the cup of pumpkin purée from the freezer and used only a half. So the day of that cookies has come 🙂 I rolled those cookies very thinly because I like thin cookies 🙂 Happy that I halved the recipe because I made a lot of cookies, really a lot. I give you the halved recipe.
Pizza dough with baking powders
This pizza dough is for those who always don’t have time to prepare pizza dough with yeast. It helped me several times, when I suddenly understood that I want pizza for Friday night and there was no pizza dough with yeast frozen in a freezer. My family liked it also and I’m very happy about that 🙂
