Lavenders_Blue Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 On Friday I went to see my Mum and Dad and was presented with 3 ice cream tubs full of gooseberries from my Dad's allotment - nearly 8lb! So yesterday I topped and tailed 6lb of them (what a truly tedious task that is) and made 13lb gooseberry jam. Today I will be using the rest to make gooseberry and elderflower ice cream. This will be a truly home grown recipe as I will use elderflower cordial that I made a few weeks ago from the recipe on here. Sadly, it is an egg-free ice cream recipe as this would catapult it into the premier league of self sufficiency, but it's delicious all the same!

C&T Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 Loads of Gooseberries! Well done with all that topping and tailing. It can take forever My Dad always reckons they should all be individually shaved as well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lavenders_Blue Posted July 20, 2010 Author Share Posted July 20, 2010 Shave a gooseberry?? No way - then it would be a grape! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
