Vegan Ice Cream Magic: The Secret Ingredient You Never Saw Coming!

[@lostwhocares]

Thank you for sharing. I have tried the recipe several times and some things made a difference. After four trials here is what I found. It was not so much the aquafaba but other factors. Used the same aquafaba each time so that is not the factor that changed. The temperature of ingredients does make a difference! It fails if items are too cold or too warm. Room temp 73+- is best. Also, I tried without the same amount of cream of tartar. I was unable to make it work with less. Why did I try that because other recipes online require less cream or tartar so it should have worked, …no. If the fruit is not cut too small bits ( ¼in. or less), it will pool at the bottom and sit in a pool of liquefied stuff that becomes a chunk of ice once it is frozen. ***I also tried putting this mixture into an ice cream maker to see what would happen. Yes, it freezes the mix very quickly (7 -10 minutes) but it does not come out smooth and soft but rather with bits of crunchy ice crystals. You can still eat it and tastes good. But if you put it in the freezer, it becomes a large chunk of ice. (But…. If you then let it thaw out to half-melted, and then mix, it makes a great thick drink like those sold at convenient stores from the machines. (half liquid/half ice bits). I hope this helps others who want to try and play with this amazing recipe. I love it.

A shot of vodka takes care of the ice crystals.

[@kristoferkrus]

Thanks for reporting your findings; that's very useful! Weird that the ice cream becomes chunky and full of ice crystals if you use an ice cream maker; it usually is the other way around, but maybe the constant churning of the machine collapses the aquafaba and makes the base much denser. About the half liquid/half frozen drink from machines at convenient stores, do you refer to slushy?

[@butterflyt-y2727]

I tried the recipe, I didn’t use strawberries in mine, I used protein peanut butter, the texture is so smooth, overall it’s very yummy😋 I love it!! Thank you so much 🤗

[@FoodTech101]

Oooo peanut butter! That's a nice variation. Great job!

[@kareyleah]

I think there is trade off between fat and sugar content. I make my meringue for ice-cream with 1/2 cup aquafaba + 1/4 cup castor sugar. But I make soy cream with 1/2 cup soy milk + 3/4 - 1 cup oil. I purée fruit separately, with 1/4 tsp xanthan gum or the water in the fruit makes ice-cream icey (I like more strawberries, so more water). This is also nice with bananas or melted chocolate instead. The thick soycream means plain vanilla is good too.

[@FoodTech101]

That'll work.

[@mars9399]

I like dense ice cream, so soycream must be the answer! Thank you

[@privateprivate9285]

Hi, made this, not really ice cream, but a sorbet. But nice and light as a somewhat alternative. "Somewhat" because of the oil and ton of sugar, albeit 'icing sugar, I used honey, and it was sweet enough. I would make it again, but as sorbet, not ice cream.

[@blessedme2636]

i will try for sure! can coconut oil be used? does it remains scoopable after few days? of course if you have not eaten every thing before! like you make it 2 days ahead your party ... cheers from France

I didn't catch how much (soy) milk and oil goes into the recipe for best results? Anyone? Thanks! :-)

Your basic recipe discoveries amaze us. My wife put aside the chick pea juice in the fridge last night. With my children asking me how di they make rice cruspie, I dropped on your 2 rice crispie video, then your ice cream. Before the end of the video, my wife ran to the fridge and is already testing out your ice cream, with Maple syrup :) Results to come, lol. Result: used red kidney bean canned juice. For some reason, we are not aware it didn't work out. Opened to suggestions?

[@FoodTech101]

Fantastic!! As soon as I get some free time from marking books and planning lessons. I want to do a video on how to make cornflakes. In fact, I have a whole bunch of interesting video ideas, just as soon as I get the time. :-)

[@pompoko_]

Amazing I will try it haha I miss ice cream so much 🥺

[@pompoko_]

@Laura L Not in Mexico 😔👍

[@rogiervdheide]

At the end of the video, where the ice cream is in the square bowl, clearly the texture is not like ice cream. It seems crumbly, not smooth and somewhat sticky like Italian ice cream. You have to churn this mixture while it freezes, or you won't get it right! Why do you need the flavorings? You can use the fruit to flavor the icecream. When using 500 gr of strawberries as a part of 1 kg of your mixture, you would need some dextrose, a sugar that is not as sweet as saccharose but has a much greater potential to keep your ice cream soft and of the right texture. That is where the solution hides itself!

[@FoodTech101]

Because of the air from the aquafaba, it doesn't need to churn when in the freezer. But feel free to try, and or modify the recipe, any way you like. Maybe message back and let me know how it comes out.

[@lotusflowergs7]

got tubs of aquafaba frozen for a long while now in my freezer, will try later on...thank you

[@FoodTech101]

Let me know how your attempt come out. 😀

[@caninedrill_instructor5861]

Dear Sir, I'm a bit of a mad food scientist ( and blogger ). While Im not a vegan, I'm very plant forward. This past weekend, I cooked up some Great Northern Beans. Those became Vegan Tuna Salad. 60g of the resulting aquafaba was used in making vegan mayonnaise to use in the abovementioned salad. After reduction, I still have 1 litre of aquafaba to use. So, your short about scoopable aquafaba ice cream caught my attention. Particularly, since its the dog days of August here in the U.S Midwest. This led me to the vidro above. Additionally, the cost to produce seems much more affordable than commercial dairy ice cream is to buy in the store . Your recipe/ process seems very replicable. I'll definitely give you a shoutout in the upcoming blog post.

[@FoodTech101]

Thanks for the feedback. Yeh, this ice-cream recipe surprised me too. Super easy and totally legit tasting. Let me know how yiu get on. BTW, is your blog about service animals? Take care and don't forget to share. 😉

[@caninedrill_instructor5861]

@FoodTech101 No Sir, The blog is about culinary experimentation. In my kitchen AKA The Domestic Culinary Laboratory. **Grins**

[@caninedrill_instructor5861]

​@FoodTech101 Hello Sir, I've made a few batches. I chose blueberries rather than strawberries. I used 1 cup of powdered sugar for the first batch. Waaaaay too sweet. So the next batch, I dropped the sugar to 1/4 cup and it was tolerable. I've also used a 1/4 cup of turbinado sugar in a third batch. For all batches, I used homemade green split peas milk. I'm still tinkering. All were very tasty and refreshing. I've even used some as the milk/ice/sweetener for an iced coffee.

Why the oil? Any substitutes?

[@FoodTech101]

It will still work without the oil but oil does add richness. Try without and let us know how it comes out.

[@robertsparacin399]

@@FoodTech101 I made it without the oil, and it was very good. For the "milk" I used half a cup of Almond milk, and half a cup of fat free Half & Half. I often blend in a cup of cooked soy beans. I often use some fat free powdered milk.. True, not vegan.. but soy is very high in oxilic acid, whic causes kidney stone formation. Intoducing of Calcium (NOT as a supplement, which does not work well) but as a food component, allows oxilic acid to bind with the calcium during digestion and not do so in the kidney where it would make a kidney stone Believe me, you do NOT want to have a kidney stone.

[@Craiggy83]

I've watched a couple of your videos and been enjoying them. You mentioned making this with caster sugar. In the recipe, you used icing sugar. In the US our icing sugar is mixed with corn starch. Caster sugar wouldn't have corn starch. Do you think that would change the texture and end result? I think I would prefer caster sugar but wanted to make sure it would still come out well. Also curious if you've tried this with maple syrup or date syrup as the sweetener. Possibly they would add too much liquid?

[@FoodTech101]

Sorry for the confusion. My bad. I used icing sugar but the recipe also works well with caster sugar. You can basically use whatever sugar you have. Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment.

[@FoodTech101]

I like experimentation. Maybe try it with the alternative sweeteners and come back and let me know how they came out. Maybe we could plan to do an international collab in the future. 😉

Everything looked so good until you mentioned the icing sugar. I'm not allowed of sugar with gout. Very sad

Maybe you're mixing the milk in too vigorously before putting in the freezer. The idea is to keep as much air as possible as this makes for a lighter soft scoop ice cream.
