Description
Ice Cream with Madagascar Vanilla
Ingredients
- 10% cream - 15 fl oz
- Egg white - 3 pieces
- Sugar - 5.6 oz
- Vanilla Pod - 1 piece
Step by Step guide
Step 1
Slice the vanilla pod in half lengthwise. Use the sharp edge of a knife to scrape the black vanilla seeds from the pod. They should feel oily to the touch. The more seeds you manage to scrape out, the better.
Step 2
Pour the cream into a saucepan with thick walls and place it over medium heat. Add the vanilla seeds and the pod to the cream, and stir. Heat until the cream begins to curdle. Immediately remove from heat and let it steep for 5 minutes.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks, gradually adding the sugar. Whisk until the mixture doubles in volume and acquires a creamy texture.
Step 4
Strain the heated cream through a sieve to remove the vanilla pod.
Step 5
Gradually introduce the hot cream into the whipped egg yolks, stirring constantly. Once evenly mixed, pour the mixture back into the saucepan, place it over medium heat, and stir continuously, making sure to scrape the edges and the bottom of the pan. Whisk until thickened, but do not allow the cream to boil. Once the cream reaches the consistency of liquid sour cream, remove from heat.
Step 6
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 7
Remove the saucepan with the ice cream from the water bath, tightly cover it with a lid, and place it in the refrigerator for 4–5 hours for further cooling.
Step 8
After the time has passed, take the ice cream out of the refrigerator and transfer it to an ice cream maker, churning for 20–40 minutes. At the end of churning, the mixture will resemble softened ice cream. Fill a container with the resulting mixture and place it in the freezer for 3–4 hours until fully set.
Step 9
If you do not have an ice cream maker, immediately transfer the ice cream mixture to a container and place it in the freezer. Remove the container and stir the contents every half hour until set.
