[@patriot4life167]

Awesome buddy, what do you think of adding a TBSP of the sugar free jello mix? Also using xanthan gum in recipes? I absolutely want to make this.

[@JoesPhenomenal]

The xanthan gum will probably smooth it out a little bit. And that jello will thicken it more.... Not sure if you need the gum in a Ninja Creami though.... Regular ice cream machine, definitely though.

[@Gx2R]

Hi 😊 so..in about a week from now my Ninja Creami Deluxe will finally be here and i see that monk fruit sweetener is being used a lottt...my question is- does it affects on the creaminess/thickness as well? bc it's very expansive and a "bit" over my budget for daily usage, so in case it doesn't I'll prob omit it/if you have a more budget friendly alternative - that would be gerat

[@JoesPhenomenal]

@Gx2R I use it just because it tastes the most like sugar and don't have an aftertaste. You can use other stuff though. I just wouldn't do the stevia in there unless you blen dit with something because it can be harsh. You can get 5 lb bags of the monk fruit stuff on Amazon for like 35 bucks.. Pricey but it lasts forever.

[@Gx2R]

@@JoesPhenomenal thx for taking the time to answer dude, really appreciate it! sadly, after checking with amazon- the problem is that i can only buy the 1.76 lb (i don't live in the US). quick math- 5 lb will be around 50 bucks which means 2.5$ a pint😢. man that sucks...i 😥really wanted to add it to my daily use

[@OwBrown]

If you blanch and skin the pistachios the ice cream will be greener. Yes it is labour some, but worthwhile. If you want the colour

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Oooo. nice tip. Thanks!

[@MrEScience]

You sold me on the ninja creami with your awesome review, my family loves it so much! I need to make this Ice cream for myself, I'm the only one that likes pistachios, but that's the beauty. We now have 4 pints. I just have to share my kiddo's favorite recipe that she made up, frozen dragon fruit chunks (surprisingly cheap), frozen pineapple chunks a banana and coconut milk, I know you don't usually like using sugar but a couple teaspoons of brown sugar is also an ingriedient she wanted, we blended it with an immersion blender and then froze it in the pints, It turned out AMAZING texture taste, and everything was perfect, dense and smooth in all the right ways. One regular sized bag of each frozen fruit plus a can of coconut milk made two pints and she had awesome smoothie sorbet bowls for breakfast the whole week!

[@JoesPhenomenal]

That brown sugar had to taste great in there though! So glad you are having fun with it!

[@saadshah7857]

Really liked that you took the time to make an egg ice cream custard for this. Appreciate the extra work to get the best quality. I am gonna try this recipe this week... But i will substitute the protein powder with dried milk powder.

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Thank you! I think it tastes so much better with the eggs.

[@sethcashman1011]

Just got a Creami. This is the first recipe I'm going to try!

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Cool! It's my favorite, also.

[@vilddyr]

I LOVE pistachio icecream. I would blend the pistachios to a real paste and use a little more instead of the almond essence which is usually what people don’t like about pistachio icecream.

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Hmm... That's a great idea. 👍

[@claudio_sergiacomo]

Do I have to use the LITE ICE CREAM setting just because I didn't use sugar? Is Ninja trying to apply a placebo effect on me, or does it really use a different mixing procedure for ice cream mixes that use sugar substitutes compared to those with real sugar?

[@claudio_sergiacomo]

I still can't understand the real differences between a lite icecream and icecream and gelato settings in the Creami

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Those settings are all really close... Some do run a little longer, and I thought maybe the rotational speed might be a little different, too. For the lite ice cream I believe it makes adjustments to accound for the fact the the mix is going to be a little harder.

[@KH-to5lw]

Pistachio is my favorite thank you so much for doing this video!!!

[@zakdaowd524]

Gonna try to make this soon, thank you! I’m thinking of possibly candying the bigger chunks of pistachio. The KZbinr E4CM made a vid on candying pecans with I believe erythritol and monk fruit which might work well for this as well. Cheers

[@JoesPhenomenal]

That sounds pretty great.

[@davorbrajkovic2128]

Hi Joe, thanks for the video. Please let me know if it is possible to freeze the leftovers even though the recipe has egg yolks. Is there a Creami Deluxe 220 V? I was not able to find it in Europe. Best to you, Davor.

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Yeah... You can freeze the leftovers no problem. I'm not sure if they make 220v versions of these. Over here in the USA, they are all 120v though. I guess you can use those there, but you'd need a converter or something like that.

[@davorbrajkovic2128]

Thanks. I just found the model "NINJA - Gelatiera CREAMI NC300EU-NERO" in Italy. I'll call them tomorrow and see if they have the Deluxe.🤞🤞🤞

[@JoesPhenomenal]

@davorbrajkovic2128 thta would be awesome. Are those 220v?

[@davorbrajkovic2128]

@@JoesPhenomenal This model is 220, but they don’t have Deluxe and they don’t know if it will be available. I’m going to order Deluxe from USA😎

[@ShannonVass]

I’m not near a Kroger. What other non dairy milk do you suggest as a base? I see you use this as a go to. Also, do you add in the whey protein to make it “healthy”? I’m guessing it’s not necessary. Thanks for your tutorials, laid out very well!

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Heya... I made a aitake on the Kroger milk.. It's dairy, but it's keto.. For non dairy, I like to use Silk Next Milk full fat oat milk. The protein powder is optional. I just use it to pump up the protein content. Thanks for checking my stuff out! It's appreciated

[@opusnone1]

What is the powdered Stevia equivalent to the Monkfruit sweetener?

[@JoesPhenomenal]

I would try going 1:1 on that first... Be careful with the stevia though.. Too much of it will end up getting A bit bitter

[@mikesierra85]

Great video as usual, it would be helpful if you could state whether the Monk Fruit sweetener is a blend with other sweeteners or if it's a pure extract. Many thanks

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Thanks! The stuff I'm using has some sugar alcohol in it too. I do have some liquid drops I'm messing with that's 100% pure though, and also been looking at allulose as well.

[@meeshmootube]

Hey Joe, have you ever thought of using avocado? That would give a greener looking ice cream too. I'm thinking of adapting your avocado ice cream recipe with your pistachio one. What are your thoughts?

[@JoesPhenomenal]

That could work... I don't know if it would gibe it enough green though unless I used a lot. Will have to try it and see what happens. I know the commercial brands tend to use food coloring.. Same thing when you see green mint chocolate chip ice cream.

[@sethcashman1011]

Hey Joe, I will definitely be making this version for myself, but others here want it without the protein powder. Should I do anything diffferently or add anything in its place? Thanks!

[@JoesPhenomenal]

You can leave it out and just add in an en extra 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract for flavor and you should be all good.

[@joakimolsson1024]

Pistachio used to be my favourite but i think it has dropped to second position after discovering walnut ice cream (with a bit of maple). Just ordered the creami and will definitely try your recipe , and also trying to substitute pistachios for walnuts 😁

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Whoa..... Maple walnut eh? What kind of base? Vanilla-ish? Sounds awesome.

[@d7oom3xd39]

Can I replace the monk fruit sweetener with Erythritol ? If so what quantities should I use

[@JoesPhenomenal]

@@d7oom3xd39 yes... Monk fruit is 1:1 with sugar, so you just have to use the ratio that erthrytol uses... I think it is slightly less sweet? It should say on the package.

[@shaeleecustis]

Is the whey protein a necessity? I have a dairy allergy and wanted to try with oat milk

[@JoesPhenomenal]

It doesnt need to be in there. I just was pumping up the protein. Oat milk works really good. Especially Silk Nextmilk Full Fat Oatmilk. Also, without the whey protein, you want to add a tiny bit of vanilla extract to make up the flavor difference.

[@kalowarrior]

Pistachio ice cream is my fav! I was wondering what does the whey protein powder do? Can it be omitted from the recipe?

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Heya, Kalo. Sure..you can leave the protein powerder out on that. It's just in there to bump the protein content up. If you take it out, put an extra tsp. of vanilla extract in there to compensate for the flavor and you should be fine.

[@louisegiguere1725]

Your recipe looks delicious. I do not see the recipe. Please let me know where I can find the Pistachio ice cream. Thank you.

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Hi Louise. The ingredients are in the video description... If you look below the video playback window there should be a little description about the video and a "see more". You have to hit the see more to see the part where the list is. Also you have to be watching from KZbin to see that. If you're watching from a different website it might not show it. If you still can find it let me know, and I'll post it in a comment for you.

[@11haseo]

I can take off the protien poweder or i have to add somthing else ?

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Sure... That shouldn't mess anything up... I'd probably put a tiny bit more vanilla extract in there though, since you lose some of the vanilla flavoring from the powder.

[@wessimpson2544]

I will be trying this one once my Breeze arrives - in rout now. You sent me the Creami link I only found the non Creami one. I love pistachio as a kid at Howard Johnson ( showing my age) i always got a sugar cone of pistachio and chocolate. Those 2 mix really well together. It was not Green just slightly. Do you think i can make this w/o the protein powder maybe a little heavy cream in it’s place. I know less healthy but have everything but that?

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Yep... that should work fine. I have the powder in there just to bump the protein content. The heavy cream will make it tastier. When you see really green pistachio ice cream, it usually means they added green food coloring... same with mint chocolate chip ice cream as well.

[@georgematheson3787]

Are the pistachios shelled?

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Yes. I bought shelled and salted ones.

[@seandre9611]

Another good tip is to pre sift your protein that way you don't get massive clumps in your pot

[@kmichalene]

Will almond milk work in these recipes? I guess I'm wondering if it freezes properly.

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Yep. Should be fine. I've used it in a few recipes and it worked out nice with the Silk stuff.

[@kmichalene]

@@JoesPhenomenal thanks!

[@kmichalene]

@@JoesPhenomenal and thank you so much for answering so quickly! That's rare on a somewhat old video. Thank you for taking the time! I got my creami today. I'm excited to try it!

[@defface777]

The max fill line is not the line that goes around the container, it is the top of the bold black vertical line... Yes, it is confusing

[@JoesPhenomenal]

You know..... I used to always fill to that and I ended up overflowing a couple of times... thought I was crazy or something.

[@MarkAnderko]

If you don’t want to add protein should you add pudding mix or will it be thick enough with everything else?

[@JoesPhenomenal]

You can use the pudding mix and it will be fine. If you leave out the protein powder it will stuff be good also without adding anything. The eggs do a good job as an emulsifier.

[@stacyhackney6100]

Thank you

[@JoesPhenomenal]

You got it, Stacy!

[@purevenomz9433]

Hi, so i tried this today. Had i frozen for 26 hours but after just 1 time”blending” it it was really liquid. Any idea what i did wrong there?

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Sounds like maybe not long enough in the freezer. I've had stuff take as long as 2 days to get down cold enough. Just depends on where your freezer is set.

[@omarmahmoud-xz5um]

I had this issue, make sure your freezer temp is set cold enough

[@JoesPhenomenal]

@omarmahmoud-xz5um I have mine set to -6... Might be a little too cold but it still works out.

[@KH-to5lw]

I just purchased a ninja creami . It’s on its way tomorrow. Can you do a watermelon or strawberry sorbet?

[@ericlancaster2889]

Is the recipe for regular or deluxe creami pints?

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Hi, Eric. It is portioned out for the Deluxe version.

[@TheFrenchieConnection]

The best!

[@NessaRossini...]

I'm wondering...instead of cooking on the stove can we use a Blendtec on the soup setting to cook it? It wouldn't scorch and would blend the ingredients well while heating. 🤔

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Well... If using the eggs, you need to get it to 170. If you use pasteurized eggs, you don't need to and you can just blend all those ingredients really well and can probably avoid cooking the mixture all together. That will save some time.

[@NessaRossini...]

@@JoesPhenomenal I just checked with the 2 major stores in my little town, no pasteurized eggs here. I'll try the soup setting on the blender and check if it heats to 170, I'll make it the night before and let it chill overnight.

[@JoesPhenomenal]

You can even use Red Mills egg replacer. That will give it the same consistancy without some of the egg calories too.

[@NessaRossini...]

@@JoesPhenomenal I'll check it out, thank you.

[@carlcat]

In the video you use almond extract but on the written recipe here you use rum extract instead, which is it?

[@JoesPhenomenal]

It's almond.... I miswrote that in the description since I copied the text over from another video. Thanks for pointing that out! Will go in and fix it.

[@amandaellis7366]

Hey Joe.... I would like to try this recipe, but would like to change one or two ingredients. Can I use light brown sugar if so how much? Instead of using regular milk, can I use homemade cashew oat blend milk? Also can Omit the eggs?

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Yes you can! The oat and cashew milks are higher in fat, so you don't need the egg as much to make the mix as creamy. With the light brown sugar, I'd try subbing that 1:1 with the monkfruit stuff.

[@debbiegibson420]

Looks good I am on Weight Watchers 2023/ love to find low points ice cream better than Halo and slot expensive any day!! Thanks

[@JoesPhenomenal]

YW. I used to go for that halo stuff too... it's been quite a while now, though.

[@kittygianelli6731]

Your written recipe says 1tblsp of almond extract…in the video it didn’t look like 1 tablespoon, it looked like a teaspoon. Can you confirm? Thx

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Should be a tsp. Will have to fix that in the description. Thanks!

[@meatwad000]

Ya I made it with a tbsp and it is pretty aggressive... Still good but ya...

[@IronGwaziJoseph]

I like pistachio flavor that isnt mad salty.

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Agreed!

[@tomm9493]

This looks amazing. Unfortunately, I just bought a large 5lb. container of chocolate whey isolate protein. I don't imagine this would taste very good, chocolate. PS Last night after watching your comparison video, I purchase the Ivation Automatic Ice Cream Maker!! PPS... Love your sense of humor! 🤣

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Thanks! I'm trying. There's a lot you can do with that chocolate protein.... maybe do a rocky road, or snickers, or a reeses peanut butter cup.... those machines make the possiblities endless. ENDLESS, I TELL YA!

[@cindyament3224]

Another recommendation for protein powder. I never eat Sucralose.

[@JoesPhenomenal]

You cna always just leave it out and add a litle extra vanilla extract to compensate. It doesn't really need the powder. I just have it in there to pump the protein. There are some protein powders that are monk fruit sweetened, also.

[@nednickerson6644]

In your ingredient list it looks like you call for a tablespoon each of the almond and vanilla extract. Could it be that you mean a teaspoon each?

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Uhh.. Typo sorry. Will correct it. The vanilla extract is a tsp. I did use a tbsp of almond extract just because I wanted a lot of that nutty flavor... A tsp will work really well on that too however.

[@mah9389]

Why are most of your recipes have egg yolks? Any substitutes? just trying to make it a bit easier 😅

[@JoesPhenomenal]

You can always leave the eggs out. In that case, I would use a little higher fat milk to compensate... or you can use Red Mills egg replacer.

@@JoesPhenomenal that’s a relief, thanks.

[@user-yn8sr7du2v]

Can you please write the ingredients for this recipe in ml and gram?

[@Aviv]

From a scientific standpoint letting it thaw before using the creami is an error. A cold mixture will yield smaller granules and will be smoother. a warmer mixture is more flexible when meeting the blade therefore the crystals created are larger.

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Very true... I only leave mine out for a minute or two if at all... It helps with some people getting granual ice cream though. I personally just like to run it, and if it comes out like that, I just add a tbsp of milk, redo it, and it's fine.

[@psuholetutube]

Should of just put all the ingredients in the blender to smooth before cooking....

[@JoesPhenomenal]

You can do that. The egg will probable get a little weird that way though, unless you do it without it in there. It can kinda kinda stringy, depending on the blender. It's weird that way that works....It's a little more of a pain in the neck, but really only ends up taking a few more minutes.

[@warrenpeas]

so it is a glorified blender?

[@leonardomaletta1470]

How hard is it to put the measurements as you add you purposely make it difficult

[@JoesPhenomenal]

It's all written out in the video description. When I'm recording, I make changes sometimes to improve it on the fly. Can't do that if I bake the measurements in like that.
