Salt & olive oil gelato

maj 11, 2020 by marie Leave a Comment

Olive oil gelato

700ml whole milk
65g skimmed milk powder 
100g granulated sugar
40g liquid glucose 
4g ice cream stabiliser 
125ml fruity olive oil
A generous pinch of salt

Start by mixing the stabiliser with 15g sugar, then set the mixture aside. Add whole milk, skimmed milk powder, the remaining sugar and liquid glucose to a heavy-duty pot. Warm the mixture up to 40C, before whisking in stabiliser mixture and warming up to 84C while stirring continuously. Remove from heat and emulsify using an immersion blender until homogenous. Pour ice cream mixture into a lidded container and age in the fridge overnight. Aging the ice cream mixture will improve both texture and flavour of the ice cream. Next day add the olive oil to your ice cream mix and blend using an immersion blender. Season with a generous pinch of salt to your taste, then churn the ice cream mixture in an ice cream maker.

Transfer ice cream to a lidded container, then freeze for at least an hour. If frozen for longer, thaw the ice cream in the fridge for 15-20 minutes, before serving. The olive oil gelato is delicious with chocolate desserts, fresh fruit or on its own, I love it sprinkled with the olive oil crumble for a bit of crunch.

Note: If you don’t have an ice cream maker at home, you can still make a delicious ice cream. It just takes a little longer, and a bit more work on your part. Instead of churning in the machine, pour the mixture into a suitable container and freeze for 30 minutes. You then whisk the mixture with a hand mixer or whisk to break all the ice crystals that are forming. Repeat this process every 30 minutes for 2-3 hours, until the ice cream is smooth and without any ice crystals left. Freeze for at least an hour before serving.

Green tea-olive oil apple tarts

Makes six 7,5cm tarts

Pâte sucrée

75 g butter at room temperature 
50g confectioners sugar
1/2 egg 
15g almond flour
125g all purpose flour
1/2 tsp. salt

Cream together butter and confectioners sugar. Beat in the egg, then gently stir in flour, almond flour and salt. Be careful not to overwork the dough. Wrap in clingfilm and rest in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. Roll out the dough and line six 7,5cm tart rings with the pastry.

Trim the edges and rest for another 15-30 minutes in the fridge. Preheat the oven to 175C and bake the tarts for 15-20 minutes, until golden brown. Leave to cool on a wire rack.

Green tea-apple compote

3 medium green apples, peeled cored and cut into small cubes
50ml strong brewed Sencha green tea (I used this)

Cook apples in the green tea for 15-20 minutes, until apples are very soft. Mash with a fork until a chunky compote and leave to cool in the refrigerator.

Olive oil ganache

200g white chocolate, chopped
25g honey  
100ml heavy cream
125ml fruity olive oil (I used this)
Pinch of salt 

Add the chopped white chocolate to a heat proof bowl. Bring cream and honey to a boil over medium heat and pour over the white chocolate. Stir with a spatula until the chocolate is melted, and continue to stir while slowly drizzling in the olive oil. If mixture begins to split, emulsify using an immersion blender. Season with salt to taste. Pour the ganache into a piping bag, and set aside.

Divide the cooled apple compote between the tart shells and top with olive oil ganache. Leave the ganache to set in the fridge for an hour.

Assemble and serve

6 green apples
3 Tbsp. lemon juice
2 Tbsp. honey
1/4-1/2 tsp. salt

Mix lemon juice, honey and salt in a shallow bowl. Slice one apple at a time thinly on a mandolin and use af 1cm round cutter to cut small discs of apple and macerate for 5 minutes in the mixture.

Arrange the apple discs on top of the olive oil ganache, finishing each tart before slicing apples for the next. This prevents the apple discs from becoming too soft in the maceration liquid.

Sprinkle with crushed green tea and serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on a little olive oil crumble
