How To Make No Mixing Vanilla Ice Cream without an Ice Cream Machine (Parfait Glacé) - Video Recipe

I know it is a pain in the neck to open the freezer and mix once in a while to make ice cream. However, this recipe doesn't require that mixing procedure!

Actually, it is a French iced dessert called (Parfait Glacé) based on Pâte à Bombe (French buttercream). Using only egg yolks will make it tastier but I used whole eggs and it worked super fine and delicious ;)



---------------------------------
Vanilla Ice Cream without an Ice Cream Machine (Parfait Glacé)

Difficulty: easy
Time: 20min + freezing time
Number of Servings: 10 2.5inch (6cm) diameter cups

Ingredients:
2 whole eggs *room temperature
50g (1.8oz.) granulated sugar
50ml water
200ml whipping cream (fresh cream)
2.5cm (1inch) vanilla bean *or a few drops of vanilla extract

Directions:
1. Beat 2 whole eggs in a bowl.
2. Heat granulated sugar and water in a saucepan by tilting the pan. Then simmer until the liquid gets syrupy and the bubbles get larger. Make sure you don't brown the syrup, then stop the heat. (Do not mix it with a spoon but tilt the pan to mix it. The sugar will recrystallize if you mix it with a spoon.)
3. Add the hot syrup (little by little if you can) in the beaten eggs, then immediately beat with an electric mixer until white and fluffy. *the syrup sterilizes and removes the egg smell and helps beat the eggs fluffy.
4. Use a knife to split the vanilla bean in half lengthwise. Use the blunt edge to scrape out the seeds. Combine whipping cream and vanilla seeds in a dry, clean bowl. Float the bottom of the bowl in ice water, whisk the cream until it forms a stiff peak.
5. Add the whipped cream into the egg mixture and cut through the mixture with wire whisk or a spatula until combined.
6. Place it in ice cream cups of your choice, then freeze until firm. OR you can freeze it in a large container, then scoop and serve.

You can use the mix (roux) to save time, but in this video I will show you how to make it from scratch :)



---------------------------------
Hayashi Rice (Hashed Beef)

Difficulty: Medium
Time: 1hour
Number of servings: 4

Ingredients:
400g (14oz.) thinly sliced beef
1 (200g=7oz.) onion
Roux
* 1 (200g=7oz.) onion
* 1/2 (100g=3.5oz.) carrot
* 1 (200g=7oz.) tomato
* 2 tbsp. butter
* 100ml red wine
* 2 tbsp. flour
* 1 can (290g=10oz.) demi-glace sauce
* 1 consomme cube (or bouillon cube)
* 1 bay leaf
* 400ml water
* 1 tsp. salt
* cracked black pepper
2 tbsp. cooking oil
salt and cracked black pepper
cooked rice

Directions:
((Roux))
1. Thinly slice the onion and carrot. Make cross incisions on the bottom surface of tomato. Bring a pot of water to a boil, pour it over the tomato to soften the skin, then peel (you can also dip the tomato in hot water for a few seconds to soften the skin). Seed tomato and cut into small pieces.
2. Heat butter in a large stew pot. Add the sliced onion and carrot, then stir-fry on low until lightly colored golden brown.
3. Add red wine and simmer on low until somewhat absorbed. Add flour and mix well.
4. Add tomato, demi-glace sauce, consomme cube, bay leaf, and water. Bring to a boil, remove the foam, turn the heat down to medium, season with salt and pepper. Then cover and cook for about 5 minutes.
5. Drain well with a strainer. *You can eat strained vegetables but they don't taste good, so I don't recommend eating them…
((Make Hayashi Rice))
1. Cut thinly sliced beef into bite size pieces and season with 1 tsp. of salt. Slice onion into bite-size wedges.
2. In a large stew pot, heat 1 tbsp. of cooking oil, stir-fry the onion slices until tender.
3. Add 1 tbsp. of cooking oil and the beef, then saute until no longer pink.
4. Add the roux, then cook on low for 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper if needed.
5. Serve it on a hot bed of rice. Garnish with parsley if you have.
