Vanilla-Maple Yoghurt And Cream Ice Cream
We have a heatwave. What better time to make some ice cream! Well, so long as the kitchen isn't too hot. I've attempted to make ice cream in the past when the kitchen was sweltering, and it didn't go so good. Fortunately my kitchen was not sweltering, well, not when I made the ice cream, at least.
Igor, fetch the maple sugar. Not the maple syrup, you imbecile, the maple SUGAR!
Experiment #75: Vanilla-Maple Yoghurt And Cream Ice Cream
Ingredients:
* 200ml Jalna Greek Yoghurt
* 300ml thickened cream
* 100ml Pure Maple Sugar (this was basically half my supply!)
* 1/2 t vanilla bean powder
* 1 egg
Instructions:
* Mix all ingredients except the egg
* Beat the egg
* Add the egg to the mix
* Process in ice cream machine.
The mixture made itself up into 700ml, so I poured off the excess until it was 600ml -- I didn't want the ice cream machine overflowing. I made a strawberry smoothie with the mix I'd poured off.
I put half the ice cream in the freezer and ate the other half straight away.
Whys: There is a heatwave and I had to use up the yoghurt, so I bought some cream...
Result: Delicious. And fattening.
* texture - beautifully creamy
* colour - cream with black flecks from the vanilla bean powder
* taste - mostly vanilla, but also slightly tangy and slightly maple-y; a bit odd, but nice; the combination of tangy from the yogurt and the maple taste of the maple sugar, just weren't what my taste buds were expecting
Verdict: Yum.
Lessons:
1. Maple Sugar does make things taste maple-y.
2. Possibly don't mix Maple flavour with Yoghurt.
3. Cream and yoghurt do go nicely together, if it is vanilla
