This delightful treat combines the richness of olive oil with the creaminess of ice cream for a sophisticated and surprising flavor experience.

Ingredients:

• 3 large eggs
• 150g sugar
• 500ml whole milk
• 250ml heavy cream
• 100ml olive oil
• 1/2 tsp sea salt

Kitchen Tools:

• whisk
• saucepan
• mixing bowl
• ice cream maker

To start, separate the egg yolks from the whites and whisk the yolks with the sugar until pale and fluffy. In a saucepan, heat the milk, cream, and salt until simmering, then slowly pour the hot mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly. Return the mixture to the saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly until it thickens slightly.

Remove from heat and stir in the olive oil until well combined. Transfer the mixture to a mixing bowl and let it cool to room temperature. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to chill completely.

Once chilled, pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency. Transfer to a container and freeze for at least 4 hours until firm.

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 1000g, and it serves about 6 people. Each serving weighs around 165g, with an estimated calorie count of 320 per serving.

One clever tip for this recipe is to drizzle a bit of high-quality balsamic vinegar over the olive oil ice cream before serving. The tanginess of the vinegar contrasts beautifully with the richness of the olive oil, adding another layer of flavor to this unique dessert.
