Instructions

1
bater

Cut the kernels off two ears of corn and blend them with only 200 ml of water.

2min

Dica: If you don't have fresh corn, you can use canned corn, but the result with fresh is more flavorful.

2
coar

Strain the blended mixture to eliminate the remaining pulp, discarding the solid residue.

1min 30s

Dica: Press the pulp firmly through the sieve to extract all the liquid.

3
misturar

Pour the strained liquid, the milk (500 ml), and the sugar (1 and a half cups) into a saucepan.

45s
4
cozinhar

Heat the mixture over the stove, stirring constantly to prevent sticking, until it thickens and takes on the characteristic yellow color of the corn, which should take about 15 minutes.

15min

Dica: Cooking it thoroughly is essential to eliminate any starchy or raw corn taste.

5
misturar

Add the heavy cream (1 box) and the sweetened condensed milk (1 can/box) to the cooked corn base.

1min

Dica: Use whole milk condensed milk for a richer flavor.

6
cozinhar

Continue cooking the mixture over high heat for another 5 minutes, until it reaches a soft fudge consistency; this is the ice cream base.

5min
7

Transfer the corn base to a container and set aside to cool completely, as you should not mix anything hot with the whipped cream/table cream.

Dica: Heat can melt the cream and cause the ice cream to separate.

8
bater

While the base cools, whip 300g of table cream (Nata) (or 300ml of whipped topping) until stiff peaks form (be careful not to overbeat and turn it into butter).

3min

Dica: The heavy cream from a box does not work for this step, as it will not whip up properly.

9
misturar

Gently fold the cooled corn base into the whipped table cream using a whisk, mixing well until homogeneous. Add yellow food coloring if you wish to intensify the color.

2min

Dica: The added cream provides volume and creaminess to the ice cream.

10

Transfer the ice cream mixture to a container, scraping down the sides and lid well, and place in the freezer overnight (or long enough to freeze solid).

Dica: Freezing for an extended period ensures the best texture.
