Sea Salt Dulce De Leche Ice Cream Ice Cream Maker Recipes

SEA SALT ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Separate the eggs into two good sized bowls.
• Beat the egg whites until stiff.
• Mix the egg yolks and sugar until thick.
• Slowly bring the milk to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
• Pour the hot milk into yolk/sugar mixture and mix well.
• Pour milk/yolk/sugar mixture back into pot and heat on medium until thicker to make a custard (DON'T LET IT BOIL! also, if you can't get it to a custard thickness,just get it as thick as you can).
• Pour custard in with beaten egg whites and mix well.
• Add sea salt (keep adding salt until it tastes salty sweet, but be careful not to add to much).
• Put mixture in fridge to cool.
• Once cool, add cream and vanilla .
• (Optional) Add 12 drops of blue coloring, and 3 drops of green coloring.
• Freeze, following your ice cream maker's instructions.
• If you don't have an ice cream maker pour mixture into 1 or 2 metal cake pans and set in freezer. Let sit until edges become firm, then remove and mix. Repeat until uniformly frozen.

SEA SALT DULCE DE LECHE ICE CREAM (ICE CREAM MAKER)

Steps:

• In a 3 quart heavy-bottomed saucepan, bring milk and cream just to a boil over moderate heat. Remove from the heat and whisk in the dulce de leche until it is completely incorporated into the mixture.
• Whisk in the vanilla extract.
• Transfer pan to fridge to cool (be sure to put a potholder or trivet under the bottom so you don't crack the glass shelf). Refrigerate uncovered for about an hour, stirring occasionally. After the hour, cover the pan and chill the mixture for 3 to 6 hours, or until very cold.
• Freeze the mixture in an ice cream maker (my Cuisinart took ~30 minutes, but follow the instructions for whatever type maker you have). A minute or two before the ice cream has fully firmed up, toss in the mix-in you choose.
• Transfer ice cream to an airtight container to ripen for at least 1 hour.
• When ready to serve, scoop ice cream into bowls and sprinkle lightly with sea salt (flakes are best, but the coarse-grain sea salt works too). Enjoy!
• NOTE: The original recipe calls for the toasted chopped pecans, but I like to use a lesser amount of Valrhona dark chocolate crunch perles that I find at Whole Foods Market instead. I'm sure this would be wonderful with an additional caramel swirl folded in as well, but I didn't have any extra dulce de leche on hand to try that.
