Preparing the ice cream mixture

  • Weigh the dry ingredients. Small quantities should be weighed using a fine scale. If any of the ingredients have become lumpy, pass them through a sieve.

  • Mix the dry ingredients well.
  • Put the milk and cream in a saucepan and heat the mixture, stirring until just before it boils.
    180 g cream, 530 g milk
  • Now stir in the mixed dry ingredients with a whisk.
  • Continue to stir the ice cream mixture for a few minutes until just before it boils. Then remove the pan from the heat and leave the mixture to cool slightly.
  • Now stir in the pistachio puree.

  • Leave the ice cream mixture to mature in the fridge for at least 1 hour or overnight.

Before or during the freezing process

  • Switch on the ice cream maker and leave it to cool for a few minutes.
  • Meanwhile, beat the ice cream mixture well again with a mixer and then start the freezing process.
  • Optional: Chop the pistachios and roast them in a pan without fat so that they brown slightly.
    20 g pistachios
  • Optional: Just before the ice cream is ready, add the glycerine and roasted pistachios.
    20 g glycerine

Notes

Alternatively, you can also make the ice cream without ice cream maker in the freezer perform (total time about 4 hours).
As nut ice cream becomes relatively solid in the freezer due to its high fat content, it is advisable to use glycerine here.
