Creamy ice cream with roasted pecans
Ingredients
- 3.2% Milk - 10 fl oz
- Cream 22% - 10.6 oz
- Egg white - 4 pieces
- Sugar - 5.6 oz
- Butter - 4 tablespoons
- Pecan - 1 cup
- Salt - ¼ teaspoon
Step by Step guide
Step 1
Pour the milk and cream into a heavy-bottomed saucepan and place over medium heat. Stir. Heat until the milk mixture comes to a boil. Remove from heat.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks, gradually adding the sugar. Whisk until the mixture doubles in volume and becomes creamy.
Step 3
Slowly introduce the hot milk mixture into the whipped egg yolks, stirring constantly. Pour the mixture back into the saucepan, place over medium heat, and stir continuously, scraping the edges and the bottom of the pan. Whisk until thickened, but do not let the cream boil. Once the cream reaches the consistency of liquid sour cream, remove from heat.
Step 4
Cool the cream in a water bath. To do this, fill a large bowl halfway with very cold water and ice cubes. Place the saucepan with the cream on top. Stir the cream occasionally for about 30–40 minutes until it cools.
Step 5
Remove the ice cream mixture from the water bath, cover tightly with a lid, and place in the refrigerator for 4–5 hours for further cooling.
Step 6
Prepare the pecans.
Step 7
Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat and warm for 2 minutes. Melt the butter on the heated surface of the skillet. Add 1 cup of chopped pecans and stir until the butter darkens by 1–2 shades from its original color and the nuts become slightly golden, about 3–4 minutes. Remove from heat. Transfer the nuts and melted butter to a separate plate and lightly sprinkle with salt. Cool to room temperature.
Step 8
Take the ice cream out of the refrigerator and pour it into an ice cream maker and churn for 20–40 minutes. In the last minute of churning, add the pecans. Fill a container with the resulting mixture and place in the freezer for 3–4 hours until fully set.
Step 9
If you do not have an ice cream maker, immediately pour the ice cream mixture into a container, mix in the nuts, and place in the freezer. Take the container out and stir the contents every half hour until set.
