Lychee & cracked black pepper gelato

Lychee & cracked black pepper gelato

Sweet lychee meets cracked black pepper in this creamy gelato. A unique flavour pairing that offers a fresh take on seasonal gelato.

White base ingredients

White base method

  • Mix all the dry ingredients together, as this prevents the skimmed milk powder from forming lumps as you add it to the milk.
  • Pour the milk into the pasteuriser and select the desired setting. We used the low pasteurisation setting at 65˚C.
  • When the milk reaches 40˚C, gradually add in all the dry ingredients.
  • Once the mixture reaches 50˚C, add the cream.
  • Let the pasteuriser run its programme, heating the mixture to 65°C, holding it at 65°C for 30 minutes, then rapidly cooling it to 4°C.
  • Once the mixture has reached 4°C, allow it to age for 4 to 12 hours, with 12 hours preferred for best results.

Lychee & cracked black pepper gelato ingredients

  • White base: 5000g
  • Rubicone lychee paste: 400g

Lychee & cracked black pepper gelato method
