The most popular dessert for young and old: ice cream
The term ice basically stands for frozen food that thaws in the mouth when eaten. The origins of the cold dish can probably be found in ancient China and not in Italy, as is often assumed.
As early as the 11th century, frozen water or “snow” was being sold by street vendors in both China and the Arab world.
Only in the 16th century did a modified form of ice cream, now made from fruit juice and water, reach Paris from Italy.
This theory has not been documented, so the first verifiable ice cream (now made from milk cream) was found in a German cookbook from 1567.
The classic ice cream - a combination of milk, sugar and fruit
It would be a few years before today's ice cream developed from chilled water, fruit juice or milk cream.
In 1692, Italian writings found evidence that ice cream was now made from milk and sugar, from fruits and spices such as cinnamon or chocolate.
It didn't take long for ice cream making to become a work of art and the result to become a culinary highlight and the most popular dessert among the upper and middle classes.
Ice cream as you know it today can be traced back to the Italian art of preparation.
To make delicious ice cream, all the ingredients are evenly mixed together and then cooled in a metal container while stirring constantly.
The important bubbles that make the ice cream soft and prevent the formation of larger crystals can only form if the ice cream is prepared correctly.
The task of continuous stirring and freezing is now carried out in the catering trade and in many private households by ice cream machines.
