For some reason, I have a craving for ice cream. It could be the heat, but the urge is more than likely just a side effect of viewing this wonderful piece of food porn from Chubby Hubby. These lovely little cones are filled with decadent Pear-Caramel Swirl Ice Cream. The recipe comes from A Passion for Desserts from Emily Luchetti (who has a new book dedicated to ice cream out now) and has soft, poached pears, a generous amount of vanilla salted caramel sauce and lots of cream and egg yolks for added richness. The bottle in the back of the picture is some Eau de Poire, or pear liquor, which was added to further enhance the pear flavor of the ice cream. Adding a bit of alcohol to any ice cream will lower the freezing point slightly, so it will be softer straight out of the freezer than it might otherwise be - a good tip to keep in mind for anyone who makes ice cream at home.
