Method

  • step 1

    Reserve a quarter of the pistachios and finely grind the remainder in a food processor. Tip into a pan with the milk and sugar, and bring gently to the boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Remove from the heat, leave to cool, then chill.

  • step 2

    Finely chop the reserved pistachios. Whip the cream to soft peaks. Fold in the custard, almond extract and then the nut milk until evenly mixed. Churn in an ice cream machine or put the bowl in the freezer until the mixture is set 5cm in from the edges. Remove and whisk to break down the large ice crystals. Freeze and whisk again, then transfer to a rigid container and scatter with the chopped pistachios. Freeze completely until firm.

  • step 3

    Half an hour before serving, transfer the ice cream to the fridge to soften.

Not made ice cream before what would the recipe for custard be please?

I really dislike recipes where you have to buy ready made ingredients - in this case custard. If I am going to do that I may as well buy the ice cream! The recipe needs to be re-written to make it complete, and people need to be warned that powdered pistachio can leave a slight grainy texture.

Really fabulous pistachio ice cream, bought a pistachio essence to replace the almond. Super easy to follow, I’ve never used ready made custard before so this was a revelation. I’d give this 10/10. Thanks for sharing

Really fabulous Pistachio Ice cream, used a natural Pistachio

No quality recipe involves almond extract for pistachio ice cream, this leaves a marzipan taste- a VERY cheap and bad quality taste, that's how you usually can tell a good quality from a bad quality pistachio ice cream. Even if you put in a tiny bit I can taste it, detracts from the true pistachio…
