Fig ice cream Is probably the least
sIckening form of using figs as a des-
sert. as 1t il not so rich as figs In pud-
dings and custards
Cover three-qusrters Of pound OF
chopped flgs with teacupful of warm
water and let them stand for hair
hour or until they soften, MASKING oc
casionally.
Scald quart OF rich cream with
a scant half pound Of sugar, add the
figs and put all through the vegeta-
Bile press or leave the figs in larger
pieces If preferred. When cool freeze,
stir we'll before packing and set away
for three hours to ripen.
A nice change is to stir in q pint or
whipped cream just before packing.
A quarter of a pound of sliced cherries
and citron. chopped finely, can also
be added.
IL YOU use wine a small giassful OF
sherry can be added instead Of the
whipped cream. It cuts the sweet
taste and is a great Improvement.
