Sue's Diner: Vanilla Ice Cream

 Who doesn't love ice cream, especially when temperatures are soaring in the Midwest!

This week's recipe, homemade vanilla ice cream, is authentically Victorian complete with a hint of vagueness in its yield - so we made a reasonable estimate.

This ice cream recipe is featured in the BryonySeries cookbook: Memories in the Kitchen: Bites and Nibbles from "Bryony," which is a permanent fundraiser for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Will and Grundy Counties.

It's also adapted from Miss Beecher’s domestic receiptbook: designed as a supplement to her Treatise on domestic economy.

This recipe is referenced in the BryonySeries novel Bryony. Here is the explanation from the cookbook:

Ice cream was John Simons’ one culinary weakness. Each lunch at Simons Mansion ended with a dish of it.

You can try the vanilla ice cream recipe on the Sue's Diner page on the BryonySeries website. 

But try the recipe this week. It will be gone some time next week. A new recipe will take it's place.

By the way, Sue's Diner is only real in the BryonySeries world. But didn't Timothy do a great job making the page look like a real menu at a vintage diner?

Here is the full diner page: bryonyseries.com/sue-s-diner. You can't really order, of course (wouldn't it be great if you could?).
