Time 9h30m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup dry adzuki beans
⅓ cup white sugar
2 teaspoons lemon juice
3 ½ cups water
1 cup milk
1 cup heavy cream
4 egg yolks
⅔ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • In a saucepan, combine the azuki beans, 1/3 cup of sugar, lemon juice and water. Bring to a boil, and boil uncovered for 3 minutes. Reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, or until the beans are very tender. When done, the beans and liquid should amount to 3 cups. If not, add more water to compensate.
  • Strain the bean mixture through a sieve - I use a wooden paddle for this, and discard the bean skins. Refrigerate for about 2 hours, or until cold.
  • In a saucepan, combine the milk and cream. Bring to a boil over medium heat. While you wait for that to boil, whisk together the egg yolks and 2/3 cup of sugar in a medium bowl. When the cream and milk come to a boil, ladle about 1/4 cup of the hot liquid into the bowl with the egg yolks, and whisk until smooth. Pour the yolk mixture into the pan with the cream, and cook over low heat until thick enough to coat the back of a metal spoon. This should take about 5 minutes. Do not cook too long, or you will get lumps. Remove from the heat, and stir in the vanilla. Refrigerate until cold.
  • Once both of the mixtures are cold, stir them together. Pour into an ice cream maker, and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh azuki beans, pure vanilla extract, and full-fat milk will produce the best-tasting ice cream.
  • Soak the azuki beans overnight: This will help them to soften and cook more evenly.
  • Simmer the azuki beans until they are tender: This may take up to an hour, but it is important to be patient. The beans should be soft enough to mash easily with a fork.
  • Sweeten the azuki beans to taste: You can use granulated sugar, honey, or maple syrup. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
  • Chill the azuki beans before churning: This will help the ice cream to set properly.
  • Churn the ice cream according to your ice cream maker's instructions: Most ice cream makers will take about 20-30 minutes to churn the ice cream.
  • Transfer the ice cream to a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 4 hours: This will allow the ice cream to firm up and develop its full flavor.

Conclusion:

Azuki ice cream is a delicious and refreshing treat that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own liking.
