Louise White Currant Cream
Crème de Groseilles Blanches à la Louise
Take two quarts of fresh-gathered ripe white currants, pick them, and pound them with half a pound of castor sugar and four peeled raw ripe bananas; then add enough ground ginger to cover a threepenny piece. Prepare one pint of custard (‘ Book of Ices,’ pages 6 and 7) and mix the fruit into it; rub it through a tammy cloth, and freeze it in the charged freezer to the consistency of a batter; add to it a wineglassful of Silver Rays (white) rum
