Ingredients


ICE CREAM

2 1/2 cup maple syrup, pure
2 vanilla beans, split
3 cup milk
16 egg yolks
1 tbsp butter, unsalted

SABLE RAFTS

9 1/2 tbsp butter, unsalted, room temp
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg yolk
1 1/2 tsp whipping cream
1 1/3 cup flour


Directions

ICE CREAM:

Combine 1-1/2 cups maple syrup with vanilla beans in heavy medium
saucepan over medium heat and cook until candy thermometer registers
220F. Let mixture cool 15 minutes.

Heat milk in saucepan. Whisk yolks to blend in bowl. Whisk in milk
in thin stream. Whisk into maple syrup mixture. Set over low heat
and stir with wooden spoon until syrup is thick enough to leave path
when finger is drawn across spoon. Strain into bowl and cool.

Set aside 1-1/2 cups custard for sauce. Transfer remaining custard
to ice cream maker and process according to manufacturer's
instructions. Freeze in container four to six hours to mellow. (Can
be prepared one day ahead. If frozen solid, let soften 30 minutes in
refrigerator.)

Boil remaining 1 cup syrup to 215F. Add butter. Cool to room
temperature.

SABLE RAFTS:

Cream butter and sugar in bowl. Beat in yolk and cream. Stir in
flour. Shape dough into ball. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate at
least two hours. (Can be prepared up to two weeks ahead and frozen.
Let stand in refrigerator overnight before continuing.)

Butter eighteen 3-1/2 x 2-inch barquettes (oval molds). Roll dough
out on lightly floured surface to thickness of 1/8-inch. Roll up on
rolling pin and unroll over barquettes. Gently press into molds. Run
rolling pin over dough to trim edges. Refrigerate until firm.

Preheat oven to 350F. Line dough with parchment or foil; fill with
pie weights or dried beans. Bake until golden brown around edges,
about 20 minutes. Remove paper and weights. Bake until bottom is
crisp, several minutes. Cool slightly in molds. Unmold and cool
completely on rack.

Spoon some of reserved custard onto each plate. Fill rafts with ice
cream. Arrange three rafts on each plate. Drop 1/2 teaspoon syrup in
three places on each plate. Draw knife through to swirl. Drizzle
remaining syrup over ice cream. Serve immediately.

The History of Recipes

Experts have proved the existance of recipes back into ancient history, at least as far as the ancient Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. Interesting though that maybe, generally, these old cookbooks were just simple hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing food.

Fascinatingly, the oldest recipe discovered so far, according to experts in ancient history is a series of clay tablets in the Sumerian language which show the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made anyone who drank it feel `blissful`.

During the time of the Roman Empire a man called Apicius created a number of scripts describing recipes enjoyed by the Romans. In his scrolls, he describes how the roman meals were split into hors d`oeuvre, main meal and afters, a very modern way of dining. He also recounts how the cooks of Roman times made use of a wide range of aromatic flavours, including a few that will be familiar to modern cooks like thyme, mint and parsley.

Over the following few hundred years, the rich families of the West competed with each other to serve the most exotic banquets, and because of this the best chefs and their collection of recipes increased in prestige. Even so, it wasn`t until the 19th century that formal cookery and recipe books rose to prominence. The Famous Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and Fannie Farmer in the US, dedicated the best years of their lives to assembling, trying out, and publishing recipes to allow everyone to enjoy them.

By the arrival of the 20th century, cooking publications were in high demand, mostly due to higher levels of literacy, people having increased leisure time and a general increase in wealth.
