Classic Recipe: Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream
Can you imagine always having an ice cream at home to offer after a meal or in the middle of a visit? Or for those intense, very hot days? In this post we show you how to prepare a delicious and refreshing vanilla ice cream, which you will undoubtedly want to prepare immediately.
Ingredients
These ingredients will make your vanilla ice cream simple, but extraordinary:
• 1 vanilla bean (You should try to have a good vanilla. It noticeably interferes with the flavor of the ice cream.)
• 300 ml of milk
• 300 ml of whipping cream
• 4 egg yolks
Preparation of Vanilla Ice Cream
These are the steps to prepare a delicious homemade vanilla ice cream:
• In a metal container that is not so wide, but high enough, pour the milk and heat it together with the vanilla pod seeds, sugar and eggs.
• It is important to tear with your hands to get the seeds, not grind.
• Beat all the ingredients gently but persistently, thus preventing the sugar from sticking together with the egg. Ideally, they should dissolve little by little.
• While it is heating, it is important to pay attention without neglecting the mixture for a second, since you cannot let it boil. When it starts to bubble, it’s time to remove it to a bowl.
• Then, add the whipping cream, beat until combined.
• Grab a container with a lid and pour the ice cream cream and take it to the refrigerator. Every half hour or failing that, 45 minutes, take out the ice cream.
• If thin ice caps have formed on the ice cream, beat it circularly and store it again.
• Repeat this procedure 4 more times.
• Finally, take the ice cream out of the refrigerator 10 minutes beforehand to distribute, so that it softens and so you can make the portions.
