Step-by-Step Ice Cream Recipe
Step 1: Grind the Mushrooms
Grind your dried magic mushrooms into a fine powder using a coffee grinder or mortar and pestle.
Step 2: Prepare the Custard Base
In a medium saucepan, heat the heavy cream and milk until just simmering. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks and sugar until light and fluffy. Slowly pour the hot cream mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly.
Step 3: Cook the Custard
Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the custard thickens and coats the back of a spoon. Do not let it boil.
Step 4: Add the Mushrooms
Remove from heat and stir in the ground mushrooms and vanilla extract. Let the mixture steep for 10-15 minutes.
Step 5: Strain
Strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer to remove the mushroom solids. This ensures a smooth ice cream texture.
Step 6: Chill
Cover and refrigerate the mixture until completely chilled, at least 4 hours or overnight.
Step 7: Churn
Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Step 8: Freeze
Transfer the churned ice cream to a freezer-safe container and freeze until firm, at least 2-3 hours.
