2 lb black grapes -- (may
: substitute any wine grape)
1/2 c sugar
1/2 c water
: Juice and zest of 1 lemon
1 c heavy cream
Wash and stem grapes. Pass grapes through a food mill,
not allowing any seeds through but including all
pieces of pulp on skin that come through. Refrigerate.
Make simple syrup by heating sugar and water until
clear and refrigerator. When ingredients are cold, add
simple syrup to grape pulp. Add lemon juice and zest
and stir to mix well. Whip cream to soft peaks and
fold into cold grape mixture. Place in ice cream
machine and chill following machine
instructions. When finished, pour into 2 ounce Dixie
cups. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze. To serve,
remove from freezer and allow to stand 10 minutes.
Unmold into a martini glass and garnish with fresh
cream and clean grapes.
