Scrumptious stem ginger ice cream

Dear Readers,

After my early morning start to make stem ginger ice cream, it looks ok but I'm waiting for the ginger expert (my granddad) to give his opinion on it and offer some advice because I'm not going to lie to you I'm not really the biggest fan of ginger and wouldn't have a clue what a good ginger ice cream tastes like :-/ 

Anyway here's my Recipe...

Ingredients: 

250 ml double cream 

125 ml water 

3 oz caster sugar 

3 egg yolks 

3 oz finely chopped stem ginger 

1 tablespoon of syrup from the ginger jar 

1. Place the sugar and water into a saucepan and on a low heat, heat until the sugar has dissolved. When dissolved, increase the heat and bring to boiling point, then boil the mixture for 2-3 minutes. 

2.Remove the pan from the heat, allow the mixture to cool a little and then pour onto the egg yolks whilst whisking as pouring. Whisk until the mixture is like a mousse in texture. 

3. Separately whip the double cream until thick and then fold the chopped stem ginger into it. Take this and slowly fold in the ginger syrup mix.

4. Transfer the mousse like mixture into the whipped cream bit by bit. 

5. Finally transfer the complete mixture into an ice cream maker and follow the manufacturer's instructions.

And this is what it looks like...

P.S. Granddad if your reading this it's ready for you :-) xxx
