Good day everyone… how was your blessing day? I hope you can eat more and more delicious food to enjoy every second in your life. Eating delicious food is the best blessing, isn’t it?

Well in the afternoon I just ate such a delicious ice cream. That’s green tea ice cream or maybe many people called this one as matcha ice cream. This ice cream is from Japan, you can find many brands in the stores. But if you can make this one at home it will be perfect.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups Half & Half (or 1 cup whole milk + 1 cup heavy whipping cream)
• 3 Tbsp. (18 g) green tea powder (matcha)
• ½ cup sugar
• Pinch of salt (about 1/16 tsp.)

Equipment:

• Ice cream maker

Instructions:

1. Freeze the ice cream bowl for 24 hours.

2. In a medium saucepan, whisk together the half and half, sugar and salt.

3. Start cooking the mixture over medium heat, and add green tea powder. Stir often and cook until the mixture starts to foam and is very hot to the touch but not boiling.

4. Remove from the heat and transfer the mixture to a bowl sitting in an ice bath. When the mixture is cool, cover with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours.

5. Once the mixture is thoroughly chilled, transfer to a pre-chilled ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions (20-25 minutes). Transfer the soft ice cream into an airtight container and freeze for at least 3 hours before serving.

I this most of the people will like the taste of this ice cream. So you must try this one in your home. If you don’t have any ice cream machine, please check our next post about how to make ice ream without ice cream machine. See you in the next post, have a great day…
