Blueberry Citrone Buttermilk Ice

Heidelbeer-Buttermilch-EisAfter the stracciatella icecream was not such a such a success last week, the “Gelateria  lab” get active again. We make Icecream with fruits of the season, that means that we decided on impulse in the supermarket, that the blueberries look very delicious, so we buy blueberries, citrons, buttermilk and cream, so we had every thing together to make a delicious icecream. We freeze the mixture with liquid nitrogen (again) but of course it is possible to use a ice machine for this purpose, too.

Who prefer a sweeter taste in icecream should increase the amount of sugar. The icecream is just slightly sweet, but I like that very much. Continue reading

Chocolate ice cream

Schokladen-Eis

After I prepared Chocolate sauce I use it for making ice cream.

Because we do not like egg in in our ice cream I used some starch to bind the mixture. This worked very well, the ice cream was very creamy. Continue reading

To buy chocolade sauce is expensiv and it comes allways in to small flasks. But it is very easy to prepare homemade chocolade sauce. I make my chocolade sauce always with this recipe, it is easy, fast and cheap.

In 5 minutes I have about 200ml chocolade sauce that cost me not more than 1 Euro and I use fair traded organic incredients. The sauce taste like dark chocolate and you can store it for serveral weeks in the fridge.

Citron Yoghurt Icecream

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.

This time we make a citron yoghurt icecream, that had a very nice fresh taste and would be a good refreshment on hoter days, too. I like it even more than the last one, but I am a big fan on citron icecream!

And we have a plan for next weeks icecream , too: Stracciatella. Continue reading

Red currant-raspberry-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.

But when we were eating our last icecream at work, I remeber again and told my colleagues about it. One of them was as enthusiastic as I and so we started our newest experiment the next day, having all materials we need in our Cofferoom or in the lab.

Because we know our colleagues, we douple the “experimental instruction” not knowing that the nitrogen would froth the mixture! So we end up with icecream for two days. But when the temperature is about 30°C in lab, it is allways a good idea to have some icecream, isn’t it? 😉

The preaperation was alot of fun and a real event with a lot viewers. Continue reading

Yoghurt icecream

The hot and humid weather at the moment makes even me thinking that it is not a good idea to turn on the oven to bake bread. So I do the oposite thing: Making Icecream.

When it is really hot I prefer slightly sour icecream: Raspberry icecream, citron icecream, buttermilk icecream or yoghurt icecream. Today I make yoghurt icecream, very delicious when served with some fresh fruits.

If you like a more sweet icecream, you should increase the sugar amount, because this icecream is just slightly sweet. Continue reading
