How to Make Tea Ice Cream Polish Krem Z Herbaty

  1. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of powdered gelatin over 2 tablespoons of cold water.
  2. Stir until the gelatin is fully dissolved and set aside to soften for 5 minutes.
  3. In a saucepan, combine 1 cup light cream, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 2 tablespoons loose leaf tea (or 4 tea bags).
  4. Cover and gently heat over medium heat, bringing just to a simmer. Do not boil.
  5. Remove from heat and let steep for 10-15 minutes to allow the tea to infuse.
  6. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove tea leaves and any solids.
  7. In a large bowl, whisk 4 large egg yolks with ¾ cup granulated sugar until light and creamy.
  8. In a separate bowl, whip 1 cup heavy cream until soft peaks form.
  9. Gently fold the whipped cream into the egg yolk mixture.
  10. Add the cooled tea-infused cream and 1 tablespoon of rum (optional) to the egg yolk and cream mixture.
  11. Gently stir in the dissolved gelatin.
  12. Whip the mixture with an electric mixer on low speed for 2-3 minutes to ensure everything is combined thoroughly.
  13. Pour the mixture into a 2-quart freezer-safe container. Cover tightly with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface of the ice cream to prevent ice crystals from forming.
  14. Freeze for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, until solid.
