Black Sesame Vegan Ice Cream
Have you ever tried black sesame in desserts? Black sesame has a unique and pronounced flavor, very appreciated in Asia. In this ice cream, it plays the main role and I hope that like me you will be a fan! I recommend that you make a black sesame praliné, it will be even better than black sesame paste. That said, the best is the enemy of the good, so if you don’t have the time or equipment to make a home made black sesame praliné, buy a good black sesame paste and you will still get a very good ice cream.
Black sesame praliné:
100 g of sugar
300 g of black sesame seeds.
20 g of sesame oil
1. To make the praline, first make a caramel by cooking the sugar in a saucepan, without water and stirring as little as possible. When you get a caramel, pour it on a baking sheet and let it cool completely.
2. Break the caramel into pieces.
3. Roast the sesame seeds for 10 minutes in an oven at 150 ℃ (300 ℉)
Pour the sesame seeds, caramel and sesame oil in a food processor until you obtain a praliné paste. (If your mixer is not very powerful, proceed step by step and make sure it cools down between each step).
4. The praliné keeps perfectly for several months in the refrigerator.
