Miso toffee ice cream
I love this ice cream.
I love pretty much all ice cream, but this one especially.
Apart from the deliciousness of the taste, the other reason I love it is because I invented it with my son. As a result of years of ‘helping’, aka eating my creations, my kids have developed mightily good palates; they’re actually properly helpful in the kitchen these days, & it was lovely to create what’s become a firm family favourite with my boy!
Nb: this recipe uses raw egg yolks & honey; for an equally delicious alternative, I’ve added vegan substitutes below.
Also… the toffee element isn’t absolutely essential for this ice cream, but I wholeheartedly recommend it – see my previous recipe, ‘molasses toffee’ & use the non-molasses version. It may sound like a faff to make your own toffee but it has 3-4 ingredients & takes a few minutes.
The toffee tends to melt after a day or 2 in the ice cream, giving it a lovely runny kind of ready made sauce!
And… If making ice cream is something you’re likely to do a lot of, I recommend getting a larger sized ice cream maker & doubling the recipe.
