This recipe was inspired by a hot black sesame pudding (with ginger) I was served in a

Chinese restaurant in San Francisco's Chinatown

See the "Glossary of Ingredients" for information about making ginger juice

Do not use any more sesame seeds than called for because it makes the dessert too gritty

and bitter

CUSTARD

cup white grape juice

/ cup black sesame seeds raw

/ cups water

tablespoon ginger juice fresh

/ cup Sucanat sugar

(squeezed from fresh grated ginger root)

(if you really love ginger you may like

to use twice as much as this)

(

or granulated sugar)

teaspoon lecithin

pinch sea salt

/ teaspoon vanilla extract

/ cup brown rice syrup

/ cup maple syrup

GARNISH

tablespoons black sesame seeds raw

Blend seeds water sugar lecithin and salt at very high speed until seeds are completely pureed (not gritty) and

mixture is smooth (about minutes)

Part way through the blending turn off the machine and use a spatula along the sides of the blender to dislodge

any seeds or other ingredients that might be clinging to the inside walls This should reduce the number of

unblended bits in the final custard mixture

Add brown rice syrup maple syrup and white grape juice and blend again until well integrated smooth and

frothy Total time for blending should be about minutes at high speed or longer for blenders that blend at

lower speeds

Transfer mixture to a sauce pan and heat over medium heat to thicken custard Mix frequently with a wire whisk

Heat at low simmer for about minutes Mix in ginger juice and vanilla extract

It is best to freeze ice cream custard when the custard is cold If the mixture is too warm some ice cream makers

will not be able to fully freeze the mixture Therefore in general it is recommended that the mixture be

refrigerated before it is placed in the ice cream maker

When freezing the custard in an ice cream maker follow the manufacturer's direction for freezing In general

freezing takes approximately minutes but this will vary depending upon the machine ingredients and

temperature of the mixture
