Green Tea Ice Cream





Before I attempt to make this green tea ice cream, i have successfully make the Vanilla ice cream and "Cream n Cookies" ice cream without a ice cream maker. quite nervous at the beginning as most of the recipe i found for the green tea ice cream require a ice cream maker. But after i read thru Blessed Homemaker blog which she making this green tea ice cream without the ice cream maker, i have the couraged to do so also.

therefore, during the Raya holidays, i make this green tea ice cream. I can say it quite successful as the texture turned out to be creamy and not icy. The recipe of this green tea ice cream i get from Kitchen corner blog which i reduce to half as i don't have enough whipping cream store in the fridge. But i intend to make this ice cream again during the coming weekend! cheers

Ingredients (Original version)
250ml whole milk
150g sugar
Pinch of salt
500ml heavy cream
4 teaspoons matcha
6 large egg yolks

Method

1. Warm the milk, sugar and salt in a medium saucepan.
2. Pour the cream into a large bowl and whisk in the green tea powder. Set a mesh strainer on top.
3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks.
4. Slowly pour the warm mixture into the egg yolks, whisking constantly, then scrape the warmed egg yolks back into the saucepan.
5. Stir the mixture constantly over medium heat with a heatproof spatula or wooden spoon, scraping the bottom as you stir, until the mixture thickens and coats the spatula.
6. Pour the custard through the strainer and stir it into the cream, then whisk it vigorously until custard is frothy to dissolve the green tea powder. Stir until cool over an ice bath.
7. Chill the mixture thoroughly in the refrigerator for about 3-4 hours, then take out from the freezer and beat with the electric mixer and re-freeze again for another 3-4 hours and beat again with the electric mixer before pour into a container and freeze for overnight
