INGREDIENTS

790 grams of fresh milk
136 grams of sucrose
60 grams of dextrose
(in the absence of these two sugars, replace with 200g of normal sugar)
13 grams of fresh egg yolk (about 1)
3 grams of carob seed flour
0.2 grams of saffron in stigmas
1 gram of sea salt
20ml of Rose water Santa Bianca

method

Heat the milk with the fresh yolk, when it reaches 40° add the sugars, carob seed flour and salt.

After mixing well, bring the mixture to 85° (so you will have pasteurized everything).

Let it cool down to about 60° and add the saffron stigmas, stirring slowly and, once it reaches room temperature, add the rose water, after mixing the mixture, leave it to rest in the fridge for 36 hours.

After the rest, cream in the ice cream maker.
