Autumn delights I- cow-berry ice cream

It is always nice to treat your guests on green carpet with something super-tasty, seasonal, local and home made. One such treat on the table today was cowberry ice cream. I just cannot keep this a secret!

If you have such options, do the following:
First- go to the nearby forest to pick cowberries. Wonderful "job" to do in fresh air of the forest.
Second- arrange some eggs from your grandmom's hens.
Third- get some single or double cream from nearby countryside dairy.
Or else you can get all this in the markets or store shelves of organic food!

Recipe: 

  • 2dl cowberries
  • 1dl sugar
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 0.5 dl powdered sugar
  • 3dl whipping cream
Then do this: 
  • Smash the cowberries with sugar
  • Whip egg yolks with powdered sugar to light froth. Whip the cream.
  • Mix all ingredients. (I must say- this is already super tasty!!!)
  • Put the unfrozen yet ice cream in box and place it in the freezer for 3-4 hours. During the freezing time you must stir the ice cream several times to make sure it freezes evenly.
It is a must every autumn on green carpet!
