• Granulated sugar: 600 g

• Dextrose: 200 g

• Skimmed milk powder: 150 g

Professional Procedure

1. Base Preparation
   
   In a large pot, mix milk, cream, sugar, dextrose, and skimmed milk powder. Start heating the mixture, stirring continuously until it reaches about 40°C.

2. Adding Egg Yolks and Stabilizer
   
   At 40°C, incorporate the pasteurized yolks and stabilizer. Add vanilla seeds or natural extract. Heat the mixture up to 85°C and hold for 2–3 minutes to ensure proper pasteurization.

3. Cooling and Maturation
   
   Quickly lower the temperature to 4°C. Let the mixture mature for at least 4–6 hours to achieve a more homogeneous structure and improve creaminess.

4. Batch Freezing
   
   Pour the matured mixture into the professional batch freezer and start the cycle. Thanks to the technology of Innova Italia batch freezers, you will obtain a cream ice cream with a velvety texture, free of ice crystals, and perfectly balanced flavor.
