Here ya go.
I halve 5-8 orange habaneros, remove the seeds leaving as much of the ribs
intact as I can. I freeze the habs on a cookie sheet. This is to soften them
and break down the cell walls to release juice. While they are still frozen,
I run them through a hand-crank meat grinder using my fine plate. I catch the
ground habs and their juice in a small pan, add a little water and bring them
to a simmer, covered, to further soften them.
Set the peppers aside to cool. Dump a gallon of peach ice cream in a very
large chilled bowl. As it softens around the edges, start stirring and mixing
it. If you just let it soften unmolested, it will loose its air and be
ruined. After a bit, you will have a very thick, but stirable bowl of ice
cream. Stir in your habaneros. I use a one quarter cup per gallon of ice
cream and quickly return it to the container and put it back into the freezer.
The habanero and peach flavors go well together. As long as you are eating
the ice cream, there is little heat. When that last spoonful is gone, you
suddenly want - make that NEED - more of the ice cream.
