CREAMY LEMONGRASS ICE CREAM



Creamy Lemongrass Ice Cream image

I came up with this recipe because I am constantly unsatisfied with the ice cream recipes out there. They are either to rich, to egg-tasting, or too grainy. This recipe has none of those undesired qualities. This smooth and creamy ice cream combines the exotic flavor of lemongrass with the familiar texture and sweetness of ice cream. The ice cream is neither to eggy, nor too buttery in part because of the use of non-fat condensed milk and regular cream.

GRASS JELLY DESSERT



Grass Jelly Dessert image

Grass jelly dessert is a harmony of rich coconut, bright fruit, chewy tapioca pearls, taro balls or mochi and ice cream of your choice. Asian dessert shops in Chinatown usually sell this dish as a set combination, but there are rare shops that sell a mix-and-match version where you can create your own based on your preferences. Our coconut milk mixture is similar to the ones from the dessert shops, with a balanced flavor that goes with any topping, but feel free to make it more or less sweet by adjusting the amount of sweetened condensed milk.

LEMONGRASS ICE CREAM



Lemongrass Ice Cream image

This is a Thomas Haas signature, and it's more of a combination of ice cream and granité than just simple ice cream. I fell in love with it the first time I made it for its delicate balance of fat and acid. It pairs well with berries and would be great in a smoothie.

Number Of Ingredients 6

5 ounces (150g) fresh lemongrass, trimmed
1 cup (240g) fresh lime juice
1 1/4 cups (250g) sugar
2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon (51g) light corn syrup
2 cups (480g) whole milk
1 cup (240g) heavy cream

Steps:

  • Crush the lemongrass with the back of a heavy chef's knife, then chop it. Put the lemongrass in a saucepan with the lime juice and sugar. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Stir in the corn syrup and remove from the heat. Let cool to about 115°F.
  • Stir in the milk and cream. Transfer to a bowl or pitcher, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate overnight for the flavors to mature.
  • Strain the mixture, then freeze in an ice cream maker. Pack into a plastic container and freeze for at least 2 hours before serving.
