We leave you with a recipe for homemade orange ice cream, with the rising temperatures it is already tempting to have a refreshing ice cream, and there is nothing better than preparing it at home, so we know that the ingredients it contains are natural, not like the ice creams we buy in supermarkets that are usually industrial and artificial, although they claim to be fruit, they do not contain a single gram. Making ice cream at home is quite simple, even if we do not have an ice cream maker, and with our freshly squeezed orange juice it will be 10. Making ice cream at home is quite simple, even if we don’t have an ice cream maker, and with the juice of our freshly squeezed oranges it will be 10.

Ingredients:
400 ml of freshly squeezed orange juice (approx. 1 glass and a half).
Zest of one orange (only grate the orange-coloured part, the white part is bitter)
20 g sugar
3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon
360 ml of whipping cream (very cold)
Preparation:
In a saucepan over medium heat, mix the orange juice and lemon juice, add the sugar and stir until it comes to the boil. Boil for about three minutes and remove from the heat Add the orange zest and mix well. Leave to cool to room temperature and then put in the freezer to chill the mixture for about half an hour.Whisk the cream until stiff, and very gradually pour in the cooled mixture. Mix in enveloping movements with a spatula.Pour the whole mixture into a container and put it in the freezer for about an hour.After this time, with a hand blender, beat the mixture for a few minutes and put it back in the freezer. Repeat this process two/three more times until the ice cream is creamy.
I hope you like it and try to prepare this delicious homemade orange ice cream. Without an ice cream maker, the final process is a little bit more expensive, as it is manual, and you have to beat it well with the whisk to break up the ice crystals that form, this is the only way to make it thick and creamy.
See you next time friends!
