PEACH ICE CREAM |
On the long run there were quite a lot of revelations - first was that we needed an Icecream Maker, then the creaminess came out from whipping creams, and when making homemade Icecreams, water is our biggest enemy. Also, Icecreams should be frozen soon. Ice cream is a formula, based on a ratio of fat, non-fat solids, liquid and sugar. Too much fat gives the ice cream a greasy feel in your mouth. Too much water which comes from the milk leads to crunchy ice crystals. Cream contributes the fat, and skim milk contains non-fat solids plus other good-for-you minerals like magnesium, potassium and calcium too. You see there are some good things for you to have Icecream.
But this recipe is an accidental one which got through, from my experiments. Good news is that this recipe doesn't need an Icecream Maker. No-churn ice cream can be too good if you get it the right way. So here we go with my experience on how to make the best No-churn Icecream, which is a pretty nifty shortcut. With a handful of ingredients, we can whip up a batch of Icecream within no time.
Depending on the flavour you want to create you could jazz it up however you like. Add some chunks of fresh fruit or fruit puree. Or some of your favourite candy, brownies, or cookies. Fold in some melted, cooled chocolate. Try adding pretzels, or swirl it with jam, marshmallow sauce, or chocolate syrup! The possibilities are endless. These revelations are the ideas my kids try adding on to a basic Vanilla Icecream/Chocolate Icecream.
This Peach Icecream is as easy as whipping some cream, folding in a little condensed milk, and whatever flavourings your heart desires. It’s pretty basic. And because it’s not quite as rich and decadent as a slow-churned ice cream recipe, you want to make up for that with your add-ins. I tried preparing a basic Vanilla Icecream with some Canned Peaches. For more flavour, I added some pureed Peaches as well as Peach chunks to the Icecream.
