Preparation

How to prepare Vanilla Ice Cream

To prepare the vanilla ice cream, take the vanilla bean, slit it, and scrape the inner pulp with a knife blade 1. Set aside. Then take a saucepan with high edges and pour in milk 2 and cream 3.

Then add the sugar 4 and the seeds from the vanilla bean 5, along with the vanilla bean itself 6 to flavor the mixture.

Heat gently to dissolve the sugar while stirring with a hand whisk 7: it will take about 2-3 minutes. The mixture should be close to boiling. When it reaches temperature, turn off the heat and remove the vanilla bean 8. Let the mixture cool until it reaches room temperature. At this point, pour the mixture into the ice cream maker 9. For this ice cream maker, it is not necessary to cool the bowl in the refrigerator.

Let the ice cream maker run for about 30 minutes 10 until it is thick and creamy 11. At this point, transfer it to a low and wide container, preferably glass or steel, and put it in the freezer, closed, for at least 3 hours before consuming it. Your vanilla ice cream is ready to be enjoyed 12!

How to store

Vanilla ice cream can be stored in the freezer, well closed in an airtight container (preferably glass or steel), for up to 1 week.

Tips

Craving stracciatella? Then 3 minutes before finishing the ice cream production, add some chocolate chips! They will mix into your cream ice cream without melting!

A little tip to impress your friends: take the ice cream out of the freezer 10 minutes before serving to enjoy it slightly softened and not frozen.

If you wish, you can garnish the ice cream with some nuts such as walnuts or hazelnuts!
