Method

Malt Semifreddo Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Gelatin

    Soak the gelatin sheets in cold water for about 5 minutes until softened, then drain and set aside.

    Heat the Milk and Cream

    In a saucepan, combine the milk and cream. Heat gently until warm but not boiling.

    In a bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and sugar until pale and creamy.

    Add Gelatin and Malt Extract

    Remove from heat, and stir in the softened gelatin and malt extract until fully dissolved. Add vanilla extract.

    Whip Egg Whites

    In a clean bowl, whip the egg whites until soft peaks form.
