Sue's Diner: Victorian Vanilla Ice Cream

On Memorial Day (originally known as Decoration Day), I'm writing this post while eating ice cream made from an 1850 recipe, one that predates even the Civil War.

It's a rich ice cream, but it does have ice crystals and is melting really fast. But it was THE favorite dessert of John Simons, and Simons Mansion always had a supply of it ready to eat.

You can try the recipe HERE.
