DIRECTIONS¶

1. Heat part of the milk to about 60°C, add the spice, and let it infuse in the fridge for about an hour.
2. Filter the spicy milk through a fine mesh into an empty Creami tub.
3. Heat the rest of the milk to about 60°C.
4. Whisk in the dry ingredients, after mixing them together first.
5. Pour it into the tub to the spicy milk, add the other ‘wet’ ingredients, and blend to emulsify and homogenize.
6. Add remaining ingredients (to the MAX line) and stir with a spoon.
7. Put on the lid, freeze for 24h, then spin as usual. Flatten any humps before that.
8. Process with RE-SPIN mode when not creamy enough after the first spin.
9. Process with MIX-IN after adding mix-ins evenly. For that, add partial amounts into a hole going down to the bottom, and fold the ice cream over, building pockets of mix-ins.
