Quality Ingredients for Deep Flavors:

The foundation of this pistachio ice cream is a blend of whole milk, heavy cream, and high-quality pistachio paste. With plenty of pistachio paste, you ensure a deep flavour unmistakably pistachio.

Creating the Ice Cream Base:

Begin by mixing the ice cream stabilizer mix with a portion of the sugar to help distribute it evenly. Combine this mixture with the remaining sugar, skim milk powder. Stir in the cream to integrate fully.

Cooking to Perfection:

Gently heat the mixture on medium, stirring often to prevent any sticking or burning at the bottom of the pan. Once the mixture reaches 65°C, incorporate the sugar and stabilizer mix. Continue cooking until the temperature reaches 75°C, ensuring the base is appropriately pasteurised and the flavours are well melded.

Chilling and Flavouring:

After cooking, strain the mixture through a sieve into a container to ensure a smooth texture, then chill thoroughly. Once cooled, blend in the pistachio paste evenly throughout the base. This step infuses the ice cream with a rich pistachio flavour and a beautiful natural green hue.

Churning and Freezing:

Transfer the chilled, flavoured base to your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Churning aerates the ice cream, contributing to its creamy texture and ensuring an even distribution of the pistachio flavour. After churning, freeze the ice cream until it reaches the desired consistency.
