Method
-
Step 1
Place sugar in a medium saucepan over moderate heat, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon, until it melts, then caramelises into a rich copper colour and just begins to smoke. (If the colour is too light, your ice cream will be sweet but without depth of flavour.)
-
Step 2
Remove pan from heat and stir in butter.
-
Step 3
Gradually whisk in cream and milk. Return pan to low heat and stir until any hardened caramel is dissolved.
-
Step 4
In a small bowl, whisk egg yolks slightly and then whisk in a small amount of the warm caramel mixture.
-
Step 5
Whisk yolks into caramel mixture in saucepan and raise heat to medium, stirring constantly with a whisk or silicone spatula. Cook until temperature reaches 74-79°C on an instant-read thermometer.
-
Step 6
Remove base from heat, stir in vanilla and pour through a fine-mesh sieve into an empty tub. Place tub into an ice bath. Once cooled, place storage lid on tub and freeze for at least 24 hours.
-
Step 7
Remove tub from freezer and remove lid from tub. Please use the Quick Start Guide for bowl assembly and unit interaction information.
-
Step 8
Select ICE CREAM.
-
Step 9
Once processing is complete, add mix-ins, if desired. Then remove ice cream from tub and serve immediately. (If the texture is too soft, return it to the freezer for a few hours to harden before serving.)
