How to Sous Vide Ice Cream

If there is one cold treat that almost anyone would love to have, it is definitely ice cream. This comfort food is something that most people would enjoy at any age, the only thing better than eating ice cream would be being able to make it at home.

Making ice cream is a fairly easy process, as long as you have a machine for it. The only problem with this is the use of raw eggs. Many recipes will often call for the use of a fairly large amount of uncooked eggs to help get that creamy flavor and texture. Of course, this could be a big risk since there is always the chance of food poisoning. This is especially true since freezing only prevents the growth of bacteria, but does not destroy it.

Sous vide ice cream is a good way to be able to make ice cream without having to worry about using raw eggs. The low temperature cooking will allow the eggs to become pasteurized, killing any bacteria that may be present. However, since the amount of heat used is controlled, it will not be enough to cook the eggs, still making it useable for ice cream.

The process for making sous vide ice cream couldn’t be any simpler. Just mix all the ingredients called for into a food grade bag, remove as much air as possible, seal and put it into the water bath with a temperature of 185°F or 85°C for 30 minutes. Once done, the mixture can then be used in an ice cream machine.

Aside from pasteurizing eggs, this technique is also ideal for making other egg based creams and sauces that are sometimes used for making ice cream.
