Recipe Step by Step

Step01

CARAMÉLIA ICE-CREAM

1017g whole milk
20g fat-free skim milk powder
52g caster sugar
90g atomized glucose
285g CARAMELIA 36%
6g combined stabilizer

Carefully weigh out all the ingredients and mix the stabilizer with around 10% of the sugar.



At 25°C (77°F), add the skim milk powder. At 30°C (86°F), add the sugars and glucose. At 40°C (104°F), slowly pour the hot liquid onto the melted couverture and stir in the center to create an elastic texture with a glossy appearance. Blend to perfect the emulsion. At 45°C (113°F), finish with the stabilizer/sugar mixture.



Pasteurize at 85°C (185°F) for two minutes and then chill rapidly to 4°C (39°F).



Leave to rest for a minimum of 12 hours.



Blend and churn at between -6°C (21°F) and -10°C (14°F).



Store in the freezer at -18°C (-0.4°F).

Step02

Apples cubes and juice

950g granny smith apples
50g lemon juice

Peel the apples and cut into 1.5cm dice. Add the lemon juice and set aside in the refrigerator.

Juice the peel and reserve the juice.

Step03

Caramelized apple compote

175g caster sugar
1 vanilla bean
120g apple juice

When cooked, strain the apples and set aside the cooking liquor.

Step04

caramélia sauce

270g whole milk
20g glucose
310g CARAMELIA 36%

Heat the milk with the glucose. Slowly pour the hot liquid onto the melted couverture and stir in the center to create an elastic texture with a glossy appearance, signifying the emulsion process is underway. Gradually add the remaining liquid and blend to perfect the emulsion. Set aside.
