It’s finally summer here in Germany. A azores high brings us the perfect summer weather: warm, but not hot or humid. Sunshine and a blue sky with little clouds makes us dreaming about icecream.
The coffee roaster sold ice lolly forms some weeks ago, a temptation I could not resist. And to my suprise the silicon form works much better then expected. As longs a the icecream mixture is not to liquid. A fruit puree, mixed with some whipped cream has the perfect consistence. I tried some recipes already and like my peach raspberry ice cream most. To keep a slightly soft texture without big ice crystals I added some Invertsyrup. This worked perfectly, even the part of the ice cream I froze in espresso cups could be spooned right from the freezer. Delicious! Until now, this is my favourite ice cream 2013!
Summertime is Ice cream time!
It seems like we will have icecream regularly in our lab. 🙂 After we enjoy raspberry-red currant-icecream last week, everyone asked for more. We have now nice 25°C in lab, but that does not keep us from eating icecream.
Sometimes I read something and then think: “I have to try this immediately!” But then time goes by and much later I remember again. One of this things is ice cream preperation with liquid nitrogen. When I read about it I thought: “What a cool idea!” But then I never thought about it up to now.
