If you haven't tasted salted caramel ice cream before, you're really missing out. This is an upgraded version of the classic Norwegian butterscotch ice cream (smørbukk-is). The only tip we can give you: make ENOUGH – because this one is going to disappear fast!
How to make salted caramel ice cream
-
Make the caramel
Melt 100 g sugar into caramel in a saucepan, taking care not to burn it. -
Add cream and milk
Add the cream a little at a time, stirring well to combine. Then add the milk and bring everything to the boil. -
Make the custard
Stir the egg yolks together in a bowl and pour in the milk and cream mixture in a steady stream while stirring well. Pour back into the pan and heat, stirring with a wooden spoon, until it thickens like a custard. -
Season
Add a little salt to taste to get that delicious salted caramel flavour. -
Churn
Strain the mixture and churn it in the Vanilla ice cream maker. Keep the ice cream in the freezer until serving.

Caramelise

Tips:
- The most important thing is to make enough brittle. If you really love it, make twice as much and add half to the ice cream maker when the ice cream is half done – then it will be evenly distributed.
