Ingredients for Peach Orange Lemongrass Ice Cream For 2 people
Fresh peaches 700 gr Sugar 30 gr Orange juice 10 ml Tapioca starch 1 tablespoon Raw cashews 150 gr Coconut milk 200 ml Grated orange peel 1 teaspoon Lemongrass 1 stalk Peach tea bags 3 gr (1 packet)
Tools: blender, cup, stove, pot,…
How to choose sweet and delicious peaches:
- The ideal size for delicious peaches is about the size of a teacup, round and has a diameter of 3 – 5cm.
- The skin of the peach has soft fine hairs. Therefore, when processing, you need to wash it thoroughly several times to remove some of the fine hairs.
- When ripe, peaches have a deep yellow and red color.
- When held, they feel firm, and when gently pressed, they should not be soft.
- When tasted, fresh peaches are crunchy, juicy, and have a light sweet and sour taste. For ripe peaches, the flesh will be yellow, smooth, with a more pronounced sweet and sour flavor.
- Peaches that are not soaked in chemicals usually can only be stored for about 1 week. In contrast, chemically soaked peaches can be stored for up to 1 month.
How to choose delicious cashew nuts:
- Color: Choose cashew nuts that are bright yellow. Avoid dark or deep brown nuts as these are often old, damp, and may have worms inside. You can check by peeling a few nuts.
- Shape: Choose nuts that look intact, have uniform size, with full, round, and naturally plump ends. Avoid buying nuts that are cracked or scratched.
- Taste: Delicious cashew nuts will have a fragrant, rich flavor, with a noticeable sweetness that is not too strong and a distinct creamy taste.
