How to make basil ice cream
Wash the basil and dry it gently (1). Put the basil in the mixer (2) with half of the fresh cream and sugar and blend until smooth. Pour half of the mixture into an ice cream tub, add the rest of the cream and mix. Transfer the rest of the mixture to a saucepan with the milk (3) and salt and heat over low heat and turn off before it comes to a boil.
Basil ice cream
Beat the egg yolks until they are frothy (4) and add them to the saucepan and drizzle. Put back on the heat and stir constantly until the mixture has thickened. Remove the saucepan from the heat and pass the mixture through a colander. Pour the mixture into the pan with the other part of the mixture. Add the grated lemon zest and chill in the refrigerator for 2 hours or overnight. Pour the mixture into the ice cream maker (5) and operate it according to the instructions. You can serve your basil ice cream immediately or keep it in the freezer until ready to serve (6).
Advice
After cooking on the fire, if there are still pieces of basil leaves in the mixture, sift it well with the help of a teaspoon.
If you want to use less yolks, you can replace them with a teaspoon of carob seed flour for each egg.
You can enrich your basil ice cream by adding pine nuts or by covering the ice cream with chopped hazelnuts before serving. If you want to enjoy it for a snack, also prepare the ice cream cones: it will also be appreciated by children.
storage
You can keep the basil ice cream in the freezer for a few days well covered.
