How To Make This Fresh Black Grape Icecream

Here in this recipe, I have shown 2 ways to make this icecream . Both ways icecream taste delicious.

In the first recipe, just 3 ingredients are required milk, sugar and fresh grapes juice but this recipe is a little time consuming as milk is boiled till thick and then blended but it tastes just amazing.

The second recipe uses milk, milk powder, cream and black grape juice, everything is just blended it takes just 15 minutes . This also tastes delicious.

First Method

Tips to make icecream

While buying black grapes for icecream select sour and sweet variety.
Always make fresh grape juice and blend immediately in the cold milk. Do not let the grape juice ferment or else the milk will curdle.
Always use whole milk to make ice cream.
Always use a thick heavy bottom broad pan or vessel to boil the milk.
Boil milk on a slow flame.
Keep stirring at regular intervals to make sure the milk does not burn at the bottom.
It is important to note that during the initial stages of boiling milk, frequent stirring is important. But as it starts thickening it is important you stir continuously as the thickening milk tends to stick to the bottom and burns giving a very unpleasant taste.
Keep the milk simmering and stirring till the milk thickens, the milk is reduced to more than half. Though it takes time and effort it is worth it.
Remember the milk for the icecream should be little sweeter than the normal as it sets the sweetness decreases .
The flavor of the slow-cooked milk is far more superior than any instant way.
It is important to partially set and whisk the ice cream mixture twice before finally setting, as it helps to prevent the formation of crystals.
Always cover the ice cream containers before the final set.
U can also use aluminum, steel, or plastic containers to set ice cream.
Better still to use containers with lids.
