What each ingredient does
- Rich boiled custard
- Provides the creamy, rich base and body that the frozen ice cream sets from.
- Ripe red raspberries
- Supply the main flavour and fruity aroma, and their pulp gives colour and tartness.
The step that matters
Pass the mixture through a sieve to remove seeds. Raspberry seeds are hard and gritty, so straining the pulp while it is smooth keeps the finished ice cream silky rather than crunchy.
