Black Berry Ice cream / Helado de Mora

  

      1 lb blue berries
       1 cup of water
       2 egg whites
       1 cup sugar
   1½ cup heavy whipping cream

Rinse the berries and drain them.  Place them in  a pot with the one cup of water and bring them to a boil.  Take away from heat and let cool completely.  Mix in the blender and   for about one or two minutes at the most.  Strain it and take out the seeds. Set aside.  Separately, beat the egg whites for around five minutes. When you see that they are completely white and are forming peaks, add the sugar little by little. Don’t stop beating during this process.

Then, add the black berry concentrate and the heavy cream with a wooden spoon and mix till you see that all ingredients have incorporated.

Take to the freezer in one big bowl or in separate individual portion ones. Let freeze completely . I recommend making it one day in advance.

Enjoy !
