In belated honor of monkey friendship...

I offer for everyone's delectation:

Homemade Banana Ice Cream (makes 1 gallon)

Heat until lukewarm 2-1/2 quarts of cream and half and half (for richer, or for poorer)

Beat 3 eggs, pinch of salt, 2-1/2 cups sugar, and 3 teaspoons a vanilla until thick and light yellow

Dissolve 6 rennet tablets in a little cold water

Combine egg mixture and cream in freezer, stir in rennet slurry. Let mixture stand until clabbered. Add 4 VERY VERY VERY ripe bananas and freeze.

According to my mom, my grandpa made this most Sundays in the summer...
