I haven’t written about the stand mixer in awhile. I think because it’s such an integral part of my baking, that it’d be too much for me to talk about every little thing that I do with it. BUT. I have a new attachment! ICE CREAM MAKER!
The first ice cream I tried to make, was Green Tea ice cream. First I have to whisk some milk and cornstarch. Then matcha and whipping cream.
It thickens up. I set aside. I learn later…that I need to use LESS matcha powder.
Slave over a hot dirty stove. Mix it up.
Let it chill.
Churn baby churn!
It comes out soft serve, but then you put it in an airtight container for a few hours. Then you can scoop and eat.
Verdict? It was fun, and simple enough. I do like the flavor, BUT when I make this again, I will use LESS matcha. It left a strong tea after taste on my tongue. So now I have a quart of this ice cream…any takers?
Mine always comes out SUPER soft serve, like not fully frozen, but I love the convenience of the ice cream maker attachment, and I keep the bowl in my deep freezer so it’s always available for use. Hmm … might make something tonight.
, thanks very much for posting this! It is gonna be so helpful when I order green tea online! So Awe Inspiring!
