Ice cream with extra virgin olive oil

Ice cream with extra virgin olive oil

Ingredients

1 1/3 cup (330 ml) whole milk
1/2 cup (100 g) sugar
1 pinch of salt
1 cup (250) ml sour cream
6 yolks from large eggs
1/2 cup (125 ml) "Lof" Extra Virgin Olive Oil

 

Execution

Heat the milk, sugar and salt in a medium saucepan, over medium heat.
Put the 6 yolks in a deep bowl and beat well with a whisk, until the mix has been homogenized.
Slowly add some warm milk, stirring constantly.
Add the eggs back in the saucepan with the remaining warm milk, stirring constantly (so that the mix can thicken).
Place the mix over medium heat again, stirring constantly, until it thickens but before it becomes too viscous.
In the bowl, add the sour cream, place a strainer on top and strain the milk-egg mix.
At this point, add the half cup of  "Lof" Extra Virgin Olive Oil. 
Stir until the ingredients have been combined.
Place the bowl on top of another bowl that has been filled with ice cubes and continue stirring until the mix has cooled off.
Place the bowl in the fridge for a few hours.
When it has cooled off, put it in the ice cream machine and stir using a low-speed setting.
