Rose Pistachio Ice Cream is a luxurious, floral-infused frozen dessert that blends the smooth richness of cream with the exotic aroma of rose water and the crunchy texture of roasted pistachios. Inspired by Middle Eastern flavors, it’s a sophisticated summer indulgence.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 5 large egg yolks
  • 2 tsp rose water
  • 1/2 cup chopped roasted pistachios (unsalted)
  • 1/8 tsp salt

Instructions

  1. In a saucepan, heat the milk and cream over medium heat until warm but not boiling.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks and sugar until pale and thick.
  3. Slowly pour the warm milk mixture into the yolks while whisking constantly to temper.
  4. Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens slightly and coats the back of a spoon.
  5. Remove from heat and stir in rose water and salt.
  6. Let the custard cool, then cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until completely chilled.
  7. Churn in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions, adding the pistachios in the last few minutes of churning.
  8. Transfer to a container and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm.

Notes

  • Add a pinch of cardamom for extra depth and warmth.
  • A drop of pink food coloring can enhance the visual appeal.
  • Use unsalted roasted pistachios for best texture and flavor.
  • No-churn option: whip 2 cups cream and fold in 1 can condensed milk, rose water, and pistachios.
  • Best enjoyed within two weeks for optimal texture and flavor.
