2 cup double cream
1 cup full fat milk
1 cup castor sugar
1/2 cup baileys
1 pinch salt
Directions
Whisk all of this stuff together until all the sugar has been
dissolved.
Then freeze as you would normally freeze ice cream, either in an ice
cream maker or in a tub in the freezer whisking every half hour or so.
Because of the alcohol content of this ice cream it will usually take
around 12 hours to become hard. It does freeze hard so taking it out
the freezer 10 minutes before serving is advised. It does melt
quickly so you have to eat it fast.
Don't put any more Baileys into the mix. 1/2 a cup may not seem much
but the flavour comes through very strongly.
I prefer this with a little Baileys poured over it.
Make it and enjoy it. That is an order!
Servings: 4 servings

The History of Recipes
It is possible to trace the history of meal recipes way back into antiquity, in fact as far into history as early Egypt, and possibly even further than that. Having said that, sadly, these early cookbooks were just very basic pictorial instructions for preparing food.
The truth of the matter is, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to experts are some clay tablets in ancient Sumerian which show the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making people feel blissful and exhilarated. Later on, in The time of the roman empire 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a few scripts showing how to cook the recipes enjoyed by his fellow Romans. In his publication, Apicius recounts how the meals of wealthy Romans were divided into hors d`oeuvre, main course and dessert, a very modern way of dining. Additionally, he describes how the ancient Romans were skilled in the use of many different herbs and spices, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens such as bay, mint and asafoetida. Later, there were some books which appeared in the 14th Century ; a recipe book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary entitled `Curye on Inglish`. Perhaps surprisingly, these are unconnected to the curry that we all know today, but instead accounts of the types of food served to the rich and wealthy people of that period. Later, in the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought us a variety of foods and herbs from the holy land, such as basil and coriander. These new foods and spices prompted a torrent in publications on food, most of which are now in private cookery archives. By the time we get to the 1900s, cookery books were greatly in demand mostly as a result of better eduction, people having more spare time and disposable income. |
