Pistachio ice cream

Recipe

2 cups whipping cream

1 cup whole milk

2/3 cup sugar (because a lot of pistachio creams out there have sugar in them. Mine were quite sweet. But if you’re using a brand that has little to no sugar, go with 3/4 cup)

2 7-oz jars pistachio cream (I used two different brands to get the exact flavor and color I wanted. 1 jar of Peppertux Turkish pistachio cream for color and sweetness, and 1 jar of Pisti for that slight bitter note that pistachios are known to have)

1 vanilla bean. You can use vanilla paste or extract, I just happened to have fresh vanilla beans

1/4 tsp CMC powder. You can use any stabilizer you want, just adjust accordingly

4 tbsp of skim milk powder

A healthy pinch of salt. You don’t want your base to be overly salty, but its presence must be felt
