      A funny anecdote from the kitchen

      Yesterday it was very hot, the ambient temperatures were over 30°c, not to mention that the ovens were on and I finished working with the only thought that there was ice cream in the freezer

      So it was when I finished working that I experienced the canonical event of every Latino family, realizing that there was actually a container of ice cream in the freezer, but that there was no ice cream inside

      So in an act of indignation I said “I will make my own ice cream from scratch; old school, with lots of egg yolks and syrup at 117”.

      As a result today I have a rich chocolate ice cream with nuts and mote con huesillo

      The mote con huesillo is basically a typical drink from here that you know from cooking peaches in chancaca (panela, piloncillo)

      It didn’t turn out like an Italian gelato, but I must say it turned out pretty decent considering the last time I made ice cream was about 6-7 years ago in college

        Ay, que me ha dado ganas de comer helado con tu relato y viendo esa foto. Nada como hacer uno mismo el helado. Seguro que está rico🙂

          Me acabo de acordar de lo que comentas, de encontrar un envase de helado y otro producto adentro ,pero eso no es todo. En mi casa era el famosa lata de galletas convertida en costurero (eso sí que me rompía el corazón) jajajaja.

          Gracias por compartir tu anécdota, me hiciste reír y recordar algunas cosas de familia.❤️

          Love

              Me quedó pendiente probar el mote con huesillo de mi único viaje a Chile 😔 Pocas cosas tan terribles como abrir un pote vacío que estaba en el freezer. Me daña solo pensarlo. Pero qué manera de transformar la decepción en un triunfo culinario 🎉. Hacer helado desde cero, con almíbar a 117°C y muchas yemas, es un acto de amor y técnica. ¿Qué truco usaste para evitar la cristalización y lograr una textura cremosa sin máquina heladera? 🍨

              Love
