We have collected some of the best that will help you easily and quickly perfect the texture and taste of homemade ice cream.

While you don't need a pastry chef degree, it's good to know a few secrets

To make the perfect homemade ice cream, you will need quality ingredients, some basic techniques and a bit of imagination. It will also be a little easier if your kitchen counter "decorates" ice cream machine. The machine allows you to mix the mixture evenly and continuously, and the base freezes in less than an hour. Selection of ingredients and temperature control are key. Choose quality ingredients and make sure they are as fresh as possible. Accurately control the temperature throughout the manufacturing process. For a smooth consistency, cool the ingredients well before whipping, and the cream must also be cooled before mixing it in the ice cream maker.

Imagination needs no limits when it comes to flavors

You can try different flavor combinations. Toppings like chopped nuts, chocolate chips or cookie crumbs add texture and depth. Remember to add complementary flavors to the base by using extracts, spices or peels for an extra level of complexity. Remember, flavors are best added when the boiled cream cools. If you add them to hot cream, the flavors will not be as pronounced.

A mysterious trio of professionals to consider

The key to the velvety smooth texture of ice cream is a quality base. Ice cream based on cream with the addition of egg yolks, will bring a richer texture. If you want a slightly lighter option, you can use a mixture of cream and condensed milk. Also pay attention to the whipping process. Too much whipping results in a grainy texture, while too little results in a thick and icy consistency. After whipping, transfer the ice cream to a shallow, tightly sealed freezer container. Freezing will thus be faster, which will prevent the formation of large ice crystals. Allow the ice cream to soften slightly at room temperature before serving. And then, enjoy the sweet life - your home life "Dolce Vita" style!
