Foodie Flags

Ingredients:

• 2 cups heavy cream
• 1 cup whole milk
• ½ cup honey or maple syrup
• 1 tsp ground turmeric
• ½ tsp ground cardamom
• ½ tsp cinnamon
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• A pinch of black pepper (enhances turmeric absorption)
• 2 egg yolks

Instructions:

1. In a saucepan, heat the milk, cream, and honey over medium heat until warm (but not boiling).
2. Whisk in turmeric, cardamom, cinnamon, vanilla, and black pepper.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks. Gradually pour in a small amount of the warm milk mixture, whisking constantly to temper the yolks.
4. Pour the egg mixture back into the saucepan, stirring continuously over low heat until it thickens slightly (coats the back of a spoon).
5. Strain the mixture through a fine sieve to remove any lumps.
6. Let it cool, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
7. Churn in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Freeze until firm.
8. Serve with crushed pistachios and a drizzle of honey!
