It is a perfect mixture between the sweetness of caramelized popcorn and the crisp salt of bacon, creating a unique experience in the mouth. If you are ready to explore a daring dessert that combines softness and crunchy, this ice will delight you!
What you need:
- 250 ml of whole milk
- 150 ml of whole liquid cream
- 70 g of sugar
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 50 g caramelized popcorn (house or trade)
- 4 bacon slices
- 1 pinch of salt
Preparation :
1. Prepare the crisp bacon
In a hot pan, grill the bacon slices until they are crisp. Once cooked, place them on absorbent paper to remove excess fat. Once cooled, crumble them into small pieces and put aside.
2. Prepare the ice cream base
In a saucepan, pour the milk, cream and sugar. Heat gently over medium heat, mixing regularly to dissolve the sugar. Add the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt to balance the flavors well. Be careful not to bring to a boil.
3. Incorporate the caramelized popcorn
Once the mixture is warm and homogeneous, remove the pan from the heat. Add 30 g of caramelized popcorn (keep the rest for the final garnish) and let infuse in the hot mixture for 10-15 minutes. This will give the ice a subtle taste of caramel and grilled corn.
4. Filter and cool
Filter the preparation to remove the pieces of caramelized popcorn. Let cool at room temperature, then place the mixture in the refrigerator for at least an hour so that it is fresh.
5. Freezing
Pour the preparation cooled into the jar of your Ninja Creami and lets freeze for 24 hours.
6. Mix in the Ninja Creami
After freezing, put the pot in the Creami ninja and select the "ice" mode. If the texture is a little too firm, you can add a spoon of milk and launch a re-spin cycle to obtain a more creamy consistency.
7. Add the Bacon bursts and the popcorn
Once the ice is ready, gently incorporates the crisp bacon bursts and the rest of the popcorn caramelized in pieces for an irresistible crunch. Gently mixes so that the ingredients are well distributed in the ice.
8.
Save your ice immediately with a little additional caramelized popcorn and a few pieces of bacon for decoration. This contrast between sweet, salty and crisp will melt the most gourmet!
This ice cream is a real gastronomic experience where each bite will surprise you with its mixture of opposite textures and flavors. A perfect recipe for those who love desserts that are out of the ordinary and that do not retreat in front of any gluttony! 🍿🥓
