Instructions
  1. Tear the dried mushrooms into small pieces.
  2. In a medium sauce pan, combine the mushrooms, 1 ½ cups of half and half, ½ cup brown sugar, vanilla, and salt.
  3. Heat on medium until the mixture is almost boiling. Stir frequently.
  4. Meanwhile, in a small mixing bowl, beat together the egg yolks and ¼ cup brown sugar.
  5. When the mushroom and cream mixture is almost boiling, reduce the heat and stir in the egg yolk mixture.
  6. Stir frequently. Heat until the temperature reaches 175°F. (A candy thermometer is a great tool to have.)
  7. While the mixture is coming to temperature, add ½ cup half and half and the maple syrup in a medium mixing bowl.
  8. When the mushroom mixture is at 175°F, remove from heat. Transfer the mixture through a strainer into the medium mixing bowl with the cold half and half and maple syrup.
  9. Stir to mix well.
  10. Chill for 4 – 24 hours.
  11. Churn in an ice cream maker following the manufacturer’s instructions until it’s the desired consistency.
