Pour boiled milk with sugar and starch into it.

Add cream.

Wash the black currants and remove the berries from the brushes.
Put currants in a small saucepan, add 30 g of sugar, pour in 25 ml of water or blackcurrant liqueur and stir.

Bring to a boil and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes.
Remove currants from heat and let cool.

If desired, black currants can be rubbed through a sieve to get rid of the skin and seeds, but this is not necessary, because in the finished ice cream, they are practically not felt.

Pour milk and cream into a saucepan.

Advice. Optional, heavy cream with milk can be replaced with 20% cream, in a quantity of 500 ml.

Put on low heat and heat without boiling.

Return the mixture to the saucepan and heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until the cream begins to thicken slightly. The cream should not be brought to a boil. The temperature of the cream should be 82-24 ° C.

It is advisable not to put a hot pot, only from the fire, into ice water, so that the bottom of the pot does not deform. Therefore, it is better to pour the cream into another dish, and then cool it in a water bath.

Combine the cooled cream with prepared black currant and mix.

Delicious creamy ice cream with sweet and sour berry flavor of black currant. I already have a wonderful homework on my site. This time I decided to make a berry, as tender and tasty as the above-mentioned vanilla, but with a new bright accent. Traditionally, yolks are used as a thickener in homemade ice cream, they prevent the crystallization of the mass and allow you to get a smooth structure. But, as I wrote earlier, starch can also be used for this purpose. This time I used it, it turned out just fine - a delicate creamy structure and no ice crystals. So if you are intimidated by the yolks in homemade ice cream, I think you will like this option. In addition, after making ice cream, you will not have unused proteins left, which is also important for many.

Preparation:

Making ice cream is not at all difficult, you need to prepare berry puree, cook milk jelly and whip cream. Mix everything, freeze, and you're done! It turns out much tastier than any store-bought ice cream, besides, everything is completely natural.
Chop black currants in a food processor. I used fresh currants, but frozen ones are just as good (first scald them with boiling water from a kettle for quick defrosting).

Rub the currants through a mesh colander to get rid of the seeds (do not neglect this step, the ice cream will be tastier).

Put sugar, vanilla sugar in a saucepan, pour in 150 ml of milk, bring to a boil.
Dissolve the starch in a glass in 50 ml of milk, mix thoroughly.
Pour the diluted starch into boiling milk, with continuous stirring, cook until the consistency of liquid jelly.
Cool completely (even better to refrigerate).

Beat the cream with a mixer until soft peaks.

Add milk jelly and berry puree.

Stir gently with a spatula until combined.
It turns out thick soft cream, by the way, is already very tasty.

Put in the freezer for 3-5 hours.
During this time, mix the mixture well with a blender or at least a spatula 2-3 times, this is necessary for the ice cream to have a smooth consistency.
