<\/p>\nYou can make homemade cardamom ice cream with this easy green cardamom-infused custard-based ice cream recipe.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The beauty of making ice cream at home is that you can infuse the milk in the recipe with almost any flavour:<\/p>\n
Or if you prefer, you can fold in additional ingredients after you've churned the vanilla ice cream base, like pieces of chopped chocolate or chocolate bars, boozy cherries to make cherry bourbon ice cream<\/a> or chopped chocolate chip cookies<\/a> to make cookie ice cream. The key is to start with a good base: a creamy cr\u00e8me anglaise<\/a> made from egg yolks, sugar, vanilla, and milk.<\/p>\n If you want to infuse your desserts with cardamom, there are a few common types of cardamom to choose from and each one offers a slightly different flavour profile:<\/p>\n If you want to make ice cream, I recommend getting an ice cream maker. You might be able to find one at a thrift store since a lot of people buy them, realize they aren't using them, and then give them away. Cuisinart makes an ice cream maker with great reviews on Amazon<\/a> that's a basic, reliable model and affordable (under $100).<\/p>\n You could also invest in a Dewar bowl attachment that you can freeze and use with your KitchenAid so that you can churn ice cream using your stand mixer (also available on Amazon<\/a>)! This could be an interesting option if you already have a mixer.<\/p>\n I have an old Krups La Glaci\u00e8re ice cream maker. It's 1.5 quarts, which is a little less than 1.5 L. It's VERY important to know the capacity of your ice cream maker. From experience, I know that the 1.5 quart ice cream machines can only handle about 1 L (4 cups) of ice cream base (the volume measured before<\/strong><\/span> churning). That's because ice cream makers incorporate air into the liquid as it churns and freezes, so that 1 L of liquid becomes close to 1.5 L of ice cream in the end!<\/p>\n This cardamom ice cream is great on its own, but is also fantastic with this peach mango pie<\/a>, maple apple pie<\/a> or this apple butter pie<\/a>. You can also serve it on top of these little raspberry galettes<\/a> or mini pumpkin tart<\/a>. Or feel free to fill cream puffs<\/a> of p\u00e2te \u00e0 choux with ice cream instead of whipped cream to make profit\u00e9roles!<\/p>\n Cardamom ice cream would make a great filling in a few desserts. You can<\/p>\n Making ice cream at home is a lot of fun and allows you to get really creative with the flavours. If I had the budget, I\u2019d probably invest in this Breville model (available on Amazon<\/a>), which comes with a built in compressor. The machine is self-cooling, so that you don't have to chill the ice cream drum for 24 hours in the freezer. This machine chills itself!<\/p>\n![\"Ingredients](\"https:\/\/bakeschool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Ingredients-to-make-custard-base-for-cardamom-ice-cream.jpg\")
