Description
A delightful recipe for Rose Pistachio Ice Cream that combines the flavors of rose and pistachio for a sweet treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1 cup full-fat milk
- 3/4 cup caster sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
- 1/2 teaspoon rose essence
- 1/2 cup pistachios, roughly chopped
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- A dash of pink food dye (optional)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the heavy whipping cream, full-fat milk, caster sugar, vanilla essence, rose essence, and sea salt. Use a hand mixer to blend the ingredients until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
- If desired, stir in a dash of pink food dye to give the ice cream a lovely blush.
- Transfer the mixture to your ice cream maker and churn according to the device’s instructions, typically around 20-25 minutes, until it achieves a creamy, soft-serve texture.
- In the final moments of churning, fold in the chopped pistachios, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the ice cream.
- Scoop the ice cream into a freezer-safe container, leveling the surface with a spatula. Seal the container tightly and place it in the freezer for a minimum of 4 hours, or until it is completely set.
- When ready to indulge, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for about 5-10 minutes for easier scooping. Serve in bowls or cones and enjoy the delightful flavors of rose and pistachio.
Notes
- For an extra creamy experience, consider letting the ice cream soften slightly before serving.
- If you prefer a stronger rose aroma, feel free to increase the rose essence to 1 teaspoon.
- Alternatively, you can swap the pistachios for chopped almonds or walnuts for a unique twist.
