Ice Cream Base

Method

Preparation

1

Make the Ice Cream Base

In a saucepan, combine the milk, heavy cream, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Heat over medium heat until the sugar dissolves.

2

Temper the Egg Yolks

In a bowl, whisk the egg yolks. Gradually add a cup of the hot milk mixture to the egg yolks, whisking continuously. Then pour the egg yolk mixture back into the saucepan.

3

Cook the Base

Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon. Remove from heat and let cool.

4

Divide into Flavors

Once cooled, divide the base into three equal parts for chocolate, pistachio, and cherry flavors.

5

Make Chocolate Ice Cream

Add cocoa powder and chocolate chips to one part. Mix well and freeze according to ice cream maker instructions.

6

Make Pistachio Ice Cream

Blend pistachios and food coloring into another part. Mix well and freeze according to ice cream maker instructions.

7

Make Cherry Ice Cream

Stir in cherry puree and chopped cherries into the last part. Mix well and freeze according to ice cream maker instructions.

8

Layer the Ice Cream

Once all flavors are frozen, layer them in a loaf pan. Alternate layers of chocolate, pistachio, and cherry ice cream.

9

Final Freeze

Cover the pan and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm.
