Green Tea Gelato
- 3 1/4 cups whole milk
- 8 green tea bags
- 1/4 cup powdered milk (fat free)
- 8 large egg yolks
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup heavy cream
- Place milk in a medium saucepan and heat to a simmer. Pour half over the tea bags in a medium bowl and let sit for 30 minutes. Strain, pressing all the liquid from the tea bags.
- Stir powdered milk into milk mixture and keep warm over low heat.
- Place egg yolks and sugar in a medium bowl. Using a hand mixer or whisk, beat until thick and pale yellow, the consistency of mayonnaise. While mixing, slowly add the hot milk and whisk until blended.
- Stir the egg mixture back into the saucepan and add the tea-infused milk; increase the heat to medium. Stir the mixture constantly with a wooden spoon until thickened like a custard sauce and registers 180u0b0 on an instant-read thermometer.
- Strain the custard through a fine mesh strainer into a medium bowl. Stir in cream, cover and refrigerate at least 6 hours before continuing.
- Pour chilled mixture into ice cream freezer bowl land let mix until thickened, about 20-25 minutes, per manufacturer's instructions.
