Description

A creamy custard-style carnivore ice cream made with heavy cream, egg yolks, salt, and optional raw honey.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 6 large egg yolks
  • 1 pinch fine sea salt
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons raw honey, optional

Instructions

  1. Whisk egg yolks, salt, and optional honey in a bowl.
  2. Warm the cream in a saucepan until steaming, not boiling.
  3. Slowly whisk a little warm cream into the yolks, then return everything to the saucepan.
  4. Cook over low heat, whisking constantly, until the custard lightly coats a spoon.
  5. Chill completely, then churn in an ice cream maker or freeze in a shallow container and stir every 30 minutes until firm.
  6. Soften briefly before scooping.

Notes

For strict carnivore, omit honey. For smoother texture, chill the custard at least 4 hours before freezing.
