If you don’t have an ice cream maker, you can still make this, but it will take more time.
Translation | Amaryllis Tsegou
First, chill the ice cream base in the freezer until it starts to set, then take it out and beat it with a hand mixer for 3-4 minutes. Put it back in the freezer and repeat the process 1-2 more times. Like do, the ice cream gets a fluffy texture, without crystalising, while also becoming smoother and more velvety.
