Steps:

• In a large saucepan, combine the blueberries, sugar and water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, until sugar is dissolved and berries are softened. Press mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into a bowl; discard pulp. Stir in cream. Cover and refrigerate overnight., Fill cylinder of ice cream freezer two-thirds full; freeze according to the manufacturer's directions. (Refrigerate any remaining mixture until ready to freeze.) Transfer ice cream to freezer containers, allowing headspace for expansion. Freeze until firm, 2-4 hours. Repeat with any remaining ice cream mixture.

Steps:

• In a saucepan bring blueberries, sugar, and salt to a boil over moderate heat, mashing berries and stirring with a fork. Simmer mixture, stirring frequently, 5 minutes and cool slightly. In a blender purée mixture with milk just until smooth and stir in cream. Pour purée through a sieve into a bowl, pressing on solids with back of a spoon. Chill mixture, covered, at least 2 hours, or until cold, and up to 1 day.
• Freeze mixture in an ice-cream maker. Transfer ice cream to an airtight container and put in freezer to harden. Ice cream may be made 1 week ahead.

Steps:

• We prefer to start with fresh blueberries rather than frozen ones, because many frozen berries are often processed improperly. To get started, sort your blueberries, setting aside any overripe ones for immediate snacking. The key is to freeze the berries flat, using a plate or baking sheet in the freezer. After the berries are frozen, they can be transferred to a bag and stored for up to six months.
• While the berries are freezing, combine the egg whites and 1 cup of the milk in a pan on the stovetop, and bring to just under a boil, whisking all the while. Let it simmer for around 5 minutes, then add the honey and salt. After simmering for another minute or two, strain the mixture into a bowl. Add the remaining milk and sugar. Pour the sauce into a pitcher or serving dish and chill; it will thicken as it chills.
• Pour the cooled sweet cream over the frozen berries to serve.

Steps:

• The day before serving, combine the cream and yogurt in a mixing bowl, and whisk until thick but not stiff. Scrape into a shallow serving bowl about 8 inches in diameter.
• Sprinkle with enough brown sugar to cover top of yogurt mixture. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 12 to 24 hours.
• Remove yogurt mixture from refrigerator, and allow it to come to room temperature. Serve yogurt and berries in separate bowls, allowing guests to help themselves.

Steps:

• In a heavy medium saucepan, combine blueberries, water and sugar over medium high heat, bring to a boil and stir occasionally to dissolve sugar.
• Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 1 minute.
• Remove from heat and allow to stand for 30 minutes.
• Transfer blueberry mixture to food processor and process till smooth, 1 minute.
• Strain through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl.
• Cover and refrigerate about 3 hours to 24 hours, until well chilled.

• Make the sugar syrup by combining the water and the sugar in a saucepan, bringing to a boil over medium high heat, cooking until clear, about 1 minute. Put the frozen berries in a heatproof bowl and pour the syrup over them. Allow to cool and then transfer to the food processor and proceed with recipe.

Steps:

• In a saucepan, heat the blueberries and 1/4 cup of the sugar over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the berries pop and begin to cook down, about 10 minutes. Set aside to cool, then refrigerate until ready to use.
• In a saucepan, heat the cream, half-and-half, and vanilla bean over medium heat, stirring occasionally to make sure the mixture does not scorch on the bottom. When it reaches a fast simmer (do not let it boil), turn off the heat and set aside to infuse 10 to 15 minutes.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and the remaining 3/4 cup sugar. Whisking constantly, slowly pour the still-hot cream mixture into the egg yolk mixture. Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. At 160 degrees F, the mixture will give off a puff of steam. When the mixture reaches 180 degrees F, it will be thickened and creamy, like eggnog. If you do not have a thermometer, test it by dipping a wooden spoon into the mixture. Run your finger down the back of the spoon. If the stripe remains clear, the mixture is ready; if the edges blur, the mixture is not quite thick enough yet. When it is ready, quickly remove it from the heat.
• Meanwhile, half-fill a large bowl with ice water. Strain the mixture into a smaller bowl to smooth it and remove the vanilla bean. Whisk in the orange zest. Rest the smaller bowl in the ice water and let the mixture cool, stirring often, then continue according to the directions of your ice cream maker.
• Put a large mixing bowl in the freezer to chill. When the ice cream is finished, transfer it to the frozen bowl. Using a sturdy rubber spatula, fold in the blueberry mixture until swirled. Freeze.

Add 1 pint of the blueberries and continue to cook until the sauce thickens and the blueberries soften. Let cool and add the other blueberries. Serve with a healthy dollop of sour cream.

Bring to a boil, and cook uncovered over medium to low heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is a syrup and the berries have released their juices, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in the remaining half-pint of raspberries and the Framboise, if using.
