We thought the taste of the thyme could be a little stronger here. Maybe add a bit more thyme or make an thyme caramel layer and crumb that over the top.
Ingredients
3dlmilk
4dlcream
3egg yolks
100grsugar
zest of 1 orange
Juice of 1/2 an orange
5thyme twigs
Instructions
Place the 3 dl of the milk together with the 2 dl of cream into a saucepan and put on a low heat. Add the chopped thyme and the lemonzest in and bring close to the boil. Turn of the heat and leave to stand for at least 30 minutes.
Once the half hour is over you can whisk the eggyolks with the sugar to a creamy and thick consistency. Add your herb/cream mixture in and the orange juice and whisk until light and airy. Whisk the remaining 2 dl cream to soft peaks and fold this through the herbal mixture.
Prepare the ice in an icecream machine if you have one or put into a freezer bowl. Put this in the freezer and stir every 30 minutes or so until the ice is firm.
