Yield 5 cups, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups goat's milk
1/3 cup sugar
1 cup heavy cream
1 pinch salt
7 egg yolks
2 teaspoons vanilla
10 ounces cajeta caramel sauce
3/4 cup toasted hazelnuts

  • Mix milk,sugar, 1/2 cup of the cream,and the salt in a pot and cook over medium heat until just under a boil,stirring occasionally.Slowly pour a small amount of milk into the egg yolks while beating them steadily with a wire whisk.Continue adding the milk(add about 1/2 of the milk in the pan) whisking the whole time to temper the eggs.
  • Add the egg yolk mixture back to the pot,whisking to thoroughly combine.Cook over medium-low stirring constantly until the mixture thickens and lightly coats the spoon,about ten minute,It's very important that you do not let the custard boil or the eggs will curdle;if it threatens to come to a boil reduce heat,and do not stop stirring!

HELADO DE CAJETA



Helado de Cajeta image

Categories     Side     Chill     Simmer     Boil

Yield makes about 5 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups goat's milk
1/3 cup sugar
1 cup heavy cream
Pinch of salt
7 egg yolks
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
10 ounces cajeta, homemade (page 151) or store-bought
3/4 cup coarsely chopped toasted pecans or hazelnuts, 1 cup broken pieces galletas maria (found in many Latin markets) or graham crackers, or 3/4 cup chopped dark chocolate (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine the milk and sugar, 1/2 cup of the heavy cream, and the salt in a pot and bring to a boil over medium heat. Whisk the egg yolks in a large heatproof bowl, slowly pour about half of the hot milk mixture into the yolks, whisking continuously, and then return the mixture to the pot. Cook over medium heat, stirring continuously with a wooden spoon or heatproof spatula, until it is thickened and coats the back of a spoon or spatula, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  • Place the cajeta in a bowl. If you are using store-bought cajeta in a glass jar, unscrew the lid, screw it on again lightly, place in a pot, and fill the pot three-fourths of the way up the sides with hot water. Warm over medium-low heat and let simmer for about 5 minutes, then carefully remove the jar from the hot water with a towel. This will allow you to pour the cajeta much more easily.
  • Strain the milk mixture into the cajeta. Add the remaining 1/2 cup heavy cream, stir to combine, and chill over an ice bath, stirring continuously. Refrigerate, covered, until completely cool, about 3 hours. Freeze in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. Incorporate any nuts, cookies, or chocolate by hand once the ice cream has finished churning and freeze until fully set.

HELADO DE QUESO



Helado de Queso image

The light granular texture of this tasty ice cream is what makes me love it so much. Swirl in some cajeta toward the end of the churning or top it with some berries if you want to add a complementary flavor, though I think it is perfect just as it is.

Yield makes about 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 cups whole milk
1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2/3 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 egg yolks
8 ounces requesón, queso fresco, or pot cheese, crumbled

Steps:

  • Combine the milk, vanilla, sugar, and salt in a small pot and bring to a boil over medium heat.
  • Whisk the egg yolks in a large heatproof bowl. Slowly whisk about half of the hot milk mixture into the yolks and stir rapidly. Return the mixture to the pot and cook over low heat, stirring continuously with a wooden spoon or heatproof spatula, until it is thickened and coats the back of a spoon, 10 to 15 minutes. Add the cheese and stir with a whisk until blended (you can use a hand or standing blender if you want it a little less grainy).
  • Chill over an ice bath, stirring, until cool. Refrigerate, covered, until completely cool, about 3 hours, and freeze in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
