Preparation

How to prepare Easy pistachio ice cream

To prepare easy pistachio ice cream, start with the syrup: in a saucepan pour the sugar 1, water 2 and turn on the flame over low heat 3.

Meanwhile, pour both the milk and the cream into a jug 4. As soon as the syrup has come to a boil 5, turn off the heat and let it cool. Pour the syrup into the milk and cream mixture 6

and blend everything with an immersion blender 7. Transfer in a silicone mold 8. Transfer to the freezer and let it rest overnight 9.

At this point, remove the cubes from the mold 10 and transfer them to a food processor 11. Blend everything until you get a creamy mixture 12,

add the pistachios 13 and blend again until you get a smooth cream 14. Transfer to a container (preferably aluminum, ceramic or glass. Avoid plastic) 15 and transfer to the freezer for at least 6 hours. When it is time to serve it, take it out of the freezer 5-10 minutes before and work it with a spoon, scraping gradually until you are able to mix to bring it back to the creamy state.
