Summer (and also winter, because who does not eat ice cream all year?) It deserves to be celebrated with something more exciting than the typical industrial balls. Today I propose a Coffee ice cream with yolk Homemade, such a creamy, intense and addictive recipe that you will not want to buy a supermarket again. And since life is already quite complicated, we will do it in Themomixthat is what it is for: to make it easy without sacrificing an apex of flavor.
This Homemade ice cream It combines the aromatic power of coffee, the softness of the egg yolk and a creamy texture that will make you close your eyes of pleasure in each tablespoon. Ideal to impress at a dinner, give you a mid -afternoon cap or set up an epic snack. And also, prepared without dramas or impossible ingredients.
300 ml of whole milk
200 ml of cream to mount
4 egg yolks
100 g of sugar
2 teaspoons of soluble coffee (or 100 ml of espresso very strong)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional but recommended)
The first thing is to start magic. Pour the milk and the cream In the glass of your Thermomix and program to heat (without boiling, very important). Add the Soluble coffee and let it dissolve completely. If you are from the Espresso team, add 100 ml of a good strong coffee for a spectacular aroma chute.
In Thermomix:
5 minutes, 90 ° C, speed 2.
The goal is for flavors to integrate well, without boiling so as not to spoil the final texture.
While the mixture is heated, beat the yolks with the sugar until obtaining a whitish and spongy cream. This is what will give the ice cream its rich and unctuous texture.
In Themomix? Easier impossible:
Butterfly on.
2 minutes, speed 3.5.
Now comes the Trick of Grandfather Poster: You have to temper The yolks. Gradually add the hot mixture of milk and cream on the beaten yolks, while stirring. Then, put everything in the Thermomix and cooking vessel so that it thickens slightly, but without boiling! What is sought is the famous texture “to the rose” (when the cream covers the back of a spoon and you can draw a line).
In Thermomix:
8 minutes, 85 ° C, speed 2.
At the end, add the Vanilla extract If you decide to use it. It is not mandatory, but it rounds the taste in a scandalous way.
Remove the glass from the glass and let it cool at room temperature. Then pass it to the fridge until it is very cold (minimum 4 hours, although from one day to another it is better).
From here you have two paths:
If you have refrigeratorpour the cold mixture and follow the instructions of your machine.
If you do not have, put it in a flat container in the freezer and remove vigorously every 30 minutes to break the ice crystals, until it is creamy (about 3-4 hours).
Intensity varies: Use decaffeinated coffee if you prefer a softer dessert or combine half soluble coffee and half espresso for a more round flavor.
It enhances the flavor: Add a pinch of cinnamon or cardamom when heating milk can give an irresistible exotic touch.
A touch of liquor: A splash of coffee liquor or mooretto in the cold mixture before freezing is optional, but absolutely glorious.
Perfect texture: If you want an even more creamy ice cream, you can add a teaspoon of honey when you mix the milk with the yolks.
With this Coffee ice cream with yolknot only will you win the gastronomic sky, but also the reverences of your guests. And all thanks to your Themomixto your good taste and, let’s admit it, to your desire to enjoy life as it deserves.
Do you dare to try it and tell me what your favorite toping is to crown it? I bet on black chocolate chips and a pinch of salt in scales!
