ICE CREAM - Black Sesame Ice Cream Recipe

Ingredients

2 cups heavy cream
2 1/2 cups whole milk
3/4 cups granulated sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons pure vanilla extract
5 tablespoons kurogoma (ground black sesame)

Preparation

Step 1

1) In a large bowl, mix whole milk (I used a combination of whole milk and skim milk) and sugar using a hand blender until the sugar is dissolved (about 2 -3 minutes).

I cut the amount of sugar significantly from the original recipe. Homemade ice cream is great because you get to control the amount of sugar and all the ingredients are fresh!

Add heavy cream and vanilla extract and stir for another minute. Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and let it whirl for about 25 minutes.

2) In the last few minutes, add ground kurogoma until incorporated. The ice cream will be soft. Transfer ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for two hours until firm. Scoop and enjoy!
