Revenge Pie’s Rum Ice Cream

Yields 1 generous quart of ice cream

-

At Elizabeth Simon’s Inner Sunset shop, she folds chunks of peach pie into a rum ice cream base to make her Peach Pice Cream. You will need an ice cream maker and instant-read thermomete­r for this recipe. To ensure the ice cream base freezes properly, you will need to place the ice cream maker’s bowl in the freezer at least 24 hours in advance.

3 cups heavy whipping cream 6 large egg yolks 2⁄3 cup sugar 2 tablespoon­s vanilla extract 1 teaspoon kosher salt ¼ cup Jamaican rum

Instructio­ns: In a large sauce pan, combine all the ingredient­s and whisk until smooth. Place the pan over moderately high heat and whisk continuous­ly until the custard’s temperatur­e reaches 160 degrees on an instant-read thermomete­r. (Don’t let the custard boil or it will curdle.)

Remove from the heat and strain the custard with a fine-mesh strainer into a large bowl. Cover with plastic wrap, placing it directly on top of the liquid, and chill overnight.

Freeze the chilled base in an ice-cream maker according to manufactur­er’s instructio­ns, then transfer to a large metal pan or bowl.

If serving on its own or alongside the peach pie, cover with plastic wrap and freeze until firm, at least 3 hours or overnight. If making “pice cream,” immediatel­y fold cooled chunks of pie into the ice cream, then continue with the directions.
