I was overdue to make some home made ice cream. The overall best recipe for vanilla ice cream is found here.
The recipe does not make a lot, at least not enough for 3 hungry guys :) So I doubled the recipe
One of the elements of making this recipe is is to make the custard out of the milk, sugar, and eggs. It needs to be thick enough to coat the back of the spoon. So I took a picture of what it looks like.
So to make the ice cream involved 8 egg yolks, with left me with 8 (actually 7, I messed up separating one of the egg yolks) egg whites.
So whenever I have eggs whites, I make coconut macaroons!
That looks so good... I am favoriting this to try both of those recipes out! Can't wait, yum!
