Ingredients

  • 250 ml whole milk

  • 250 ml full-fream cream

  • 2 large egg yolks

  • 40 to 60 g sweetener sugar-free powdered

  • 100 g of pure unsweetened pistachio paste (minimum 50 %, ideally 100 %)

  • A few drops of natural bitter almond flavor

  • A pinch of spirulina

  • Plain roasted pistachios (for mix-in)

Directions

  • Heating liquids
    Pour the whole milk and whipping cream into a saucepan. Heat gently over medium heat until lightly simmering, but never boil.
  • Work the yolks without sugar
    In a bowl, whisk the egg yolks with your chosen sweetener until smooth and homogeneous. It won't whiten like sugar, which is normal: the important thing is that the sweetener is well dissolved.
  • Making the custard
    Gradually pour the hot mixture over the yolks, whisking continuously to temper. Return the mixture to the saucepan and thicken over a low heat, stirring constantly, until you obtain a creamy consistency. The ideal temperature is between 74 and 79 °C, without boiling.
  • Add pistachios and flavourings
    Remove from heat and stir in pistachio paste, bitter almond flavoring and spirulina, if using. Blend thoroughly (hand blender recommended) to obtain a perfectly smooth, glossy and homogeneous base.
  • Cooling and freezing
    Let the mixture come to room temperature, then pour it into the jar of the Ninja Creami. Close and place in freezer for 24 heures, flat.
  • Ice turbining
    Insert the jar into the machine and start the program Ice Cream or Gelato according to the desired texture.
    Then add the roasted pistachios and use the Mix-In to keep the sparkling shine.
