Indulge in the Sweet Sensation of Homemade Plum Ice Cream with Monsieur Cuisine
There’s nothing quite like the creamy, fruity goodness of homemade ice cream. And when you add the sweet, tangy flavor of fresh plums to the mix, you have a dessert that is truly irresistible. With the help of your Monsieur Cuisine, you can whip up a batch of plum ice cream that will have your taste buds singing with delight.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups of fresh plums, pitted and chopped
- 1 cup of sugar
- 2 cups of heavy cream
- 1 cup of whole milk
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Preparation:
1. Cook the Plums
In a saucepan, combine the chopped plums and sugar over medium heat. Cook until the plums are soft and the sugar has dissolved, about 5-7 minutes. Allow the mixture to cool slightly.
Temperature: Medium heat
Time: 5-7 minutes
2. Blend the Plum Mixture
Transfer the cooked plum mixture to a blender and puree until smooth. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve to remove any solids.
Time: 2-3 minutes
3. Prepare the Ice Cream Base
In a separate saucepan, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, vanilla extract, and salt. Heat the mixture over medium heat until it reaches a simmer. Remove from heat.
Temperature: Medium heat
Time: Until it reaches a simmer
4. Combine the Mixtures
Slowly pour the plum puree into the cream mixture, stirring constantly to combine. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.
5. Chill the Mixture
Transfer the ice cream base to a container and cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
6. Churn the Ice Cream
Once the mixture is thoroughly chilled, pour it into your Monsieur Cuisine and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, typically for about 20-25 minutes or until the ice cream reaches a soft-serve consistency.
Time: 20-25 minutes
7. Freeze the Ice Cream
Transfer the churned ice cream to a freezer-safe container and freeze for an additional 2-4 hours, or until firm.
8. Serve and Enjoy!
Scoop the homemade plum ice cream into bowls or cones and garnish with fresh plum slices or a sprinkle of cinnamon. Indulge in the sweet sensation of your delicious creation!
