Popular around the 15th or 16th century Snow Cream was called a dessert that fells from the sky. It used to be a child’s winter novelty, the stuff of snow days, reloading after a snowball fight and impatiently watching flakes accumulate in a bowl the mother had set outside.
Here is a recipe of an Apple Snow. This recipe credit goes to some gourmet meals and discussions times spent in Victoria layout, Bangalore with a multi-talented aunt-in-law.
My food word for this recipe would be a perfect ending.
When you go out shopping look for;
Fresh cream
Vanilla Ice-cream
Nougat (can be replaced by Indian chickies)
Vanilla extract
Red Apples
The recipe would be;
For portions for four, you will need two hundred ml of fresh cream and vanilla ice cream each. Place the ice cream in a bowl and allow it to sit at room temperature. Pour the cream into a large bowl and whip it. You do not need soft peaks, so stop whipping till before that happens. Fold in the melted vanilla ice-cream into the whipped cream mix. Use cut-and-fold method with a spatula. Now whisk the white cream and ice cream mix for maybe a min or two, you will get a thick creamy consistency. Separately ground about a cup of nougat to small rough bits, do not make it dusty, they should be coarse. Add to the creamy mixture and refrigerate the bowl. Just before serving add in about two grated apples with skin into the mix. Please do not grate the apples before as they change colour, release water and lose the crunch.
