About the dish

From the ice chapter of Stor kokebok (1914), where Erken gives several variations of fruit ices. Ice creams and fruit ices were frozen in a hand-cranked freezer with ice and salt (see her reference to page 504).

How to make it

  1. 1

    Boil the sugar syrup

    Boil the sugar with the water for 30 minutes, skimming the syrup well as you go.

  2. 2

    Add fruit and juice

    Cut the pineapple into small cubes. Add the pineapple and the strained lemon juice to the syrup once it has cooled.

  3. 3

    Freeze

    Freeze the mixture in an ice cream maker, or in a mold in the freezer, stirring every half hour until firm.

Changes from the original

Quantities are converted to modern units (dl/l/grams), and the singular "cube" has been corrected to "cubes" (an OCR error). The freezing instruction has been adapted to a modern ice cream maker or freezer.
