Creamy durian-flavored ice cream
Ingredients:
4 egg yolks, 200ml of pure milk, 600ml of light cream, 100g of sugar, and 300g of durian meat.
Methods:
1. Puree the durian meat in a blender.
2. Crack the eggs. Separate the yolks and whites.
3. Add 100g of sugar to the egg yolks and beat with a hand whisk until the sugar melts, making an egg yolk paste.
4. Pour the milk into a saucepan and boil it over high heat until it comes to a gentle boil.
5. Pour the boiling milk into the egg yolk mixture slowly in a thin line, stirring constantly with a hand whisk. (This step is very critical. The slightly boiled milk must be added in small, slow increments, with constant stirring, to avoid scalded egg yolks.)
6. Pour the mixed milk and egg yolk paste back into the saucepan again and heat it over low heat, stirring constantly with a hand whisk as you do so, and don't let it boil over, or you'll lose the whole thing and turn it into eggdrop soup. Heat until the milk yolk paste becomes thick. Remove from heat. Allow to cool naturally.
7. Once cooled, mix in the mashed durian from the first step.
8. While waiting for the egg yolk paste to cool, take a clean mixing bowl, fill it with 600ml of light cream, whip the cream with a whisk and set aside. (To determine whether the cream is initiated, use a rubber knife to insert and then lift, if the cream can be easily pulled out of a sharp corner, it means it has been well beaten.)
9. Pour the whipped cream into the cooled egg yolk and durian paste, mix well with a whisk, and then put it into an airtight lunch box and put it into the freezer.
10. After 30 minutes, remove. Mix the ice cream well with a whisk 1 time, then continue to put it into the freezer.
11. After 30 minutes, repeat this step again. (For a lubricated, crumb-free texture, mix the ice cream every half hour for a total of 6-8 times until the final ice cream is completely frozen and solidified.)
12. To serve, remove the ice cream from the freezer and let it stand at room temperature for a few moments to soften slightly and allow it to scoop.
You can sprinkle the top of the ice cream with chopped peanuts or serve it in an egg cone, depending on your preference.
