What each ingredient does
- Red raspberries
- Provide the main fruit flavor and color, and the pulp that gives the ice cream its body.
- Rich boiled custard
- Adds richness and a smooth, creamy texture that keeps the frozen ice cream from turning icy.
The step that matters
Freeze the mixture until solid. Freezing slowly in a thick, sweet base is what keeps ice crystals small. Freezing it too slowly or without enough sugar and fat lets larger crystals form, making the ice cream grainy.
