How to Make Ice Cream Like A Michelin Star Rated Restaurant
Host Anna Medina talks with Alfonso Marquez Ramirez, Pastry Chef at Chez TJ, a Michelin Star rated restaurant in Mountain View, about tips and tricks for making ice cream at home. Marquez Ramirez shared his recipe for a vanilla ice cream base:
Alfonso Marquez Ramirez's ice cream base
Yield: 2 quarts
3 cups whole milk
2 cups heavy cream
1 can sweetened condensed milk
15 egg yolks
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla
In a saucepan, bring cream, milk and condensed milk to a boil, take off the heat, add vanilla and set aside.
In blender, puree yolks and sugar for 1 minute on high, then turn down to low.
Add half of the hot milk mixture, blend for 30 seconds and add back to the pot. Heat mixture until it reaches 170 F, then chill for 3 hours. Put half of the mixture in ice cream machine until it is of soft-serve consistency, put in an airtight container and freeze until set.

don't let the awkwardness of this video turn you off from it, this man is dropping some knowledge gems left and right after the 4 minute mark or so, shows you where his expertise really is at.
agreed. it's basically creme anglaise /vanilla sauces that can be served hot or cold widely used for dessert sauces . this guy did a great job teaching how it's done and the science behind it.
What awkwardness..???
He said a lot of bullshit tho
@@tib0980 Michelin Star not using fresh vanilla beans????? yeah right!... Eggs cook at 185 F not 170 F...his ice cream will crystalize And for God sake smell the container but don't put your fingers right into it!!!!! This guy is a real joke!
Yeah, but they both won’t shut the hell up and just cook.
Ok this recipe is more technical, more restaurant-level detailed than others here. I was intimidated at first, but the ice cream came out delicious. Approved!
What about after freezing it in a container - was dipping it possible. I'd like to avoid taking something from the freezer that's more like ice than ice cream.
15 Yolks!?!?!
He didn’t really give measurements other than 15 eggs!🙄
I can’t believe the comment section is so negative, I enjoyed watching and hearing them talk. I tried the recipe but I didn’t do the reheating with the eggs at the end because I was afraid I would overcook them since I don’t own a termometer. I don’t have an icecream maker but What I did is shake the mixture every 2-3 hours after putting it in the freezer and it turned out just perfect, it was not eggy and super smooth. Loved the video, you people need to chill out.
It’s ok if you don’t have a thermometer. After you’ve incorporated the milk/cream and eggs together and are cooking them for the last time - stir the mixture continuously with a wooden spoon and keep checking when it coats the back of that spoon. That’s when it’s ready! Now put the mixture in the ice bath.
Hey, did you use 15 eggs or less?

I completely agree.
Inconsistencies between the video and ingredient list in the description is confusing. Says to use 1 cup sugar whereas he uses 3/4 and lists sweetened condinced milk but I dont see where that's used in the video
Give this guy an award! Entertaining and fun!
15 yokes is a lot. I generally do 5 yokes to a cup of cream, and use condensed sweetened milk to sweeten it, instead of cane sugar. I also add whole milk to the base when pouring it into the machine. There are also some cheats that can be used, but I'll refrain from that.
For anyone wondering about the sweetened condensed milk that is mentioned in the description but not the video, I made this recipe exactly according to the directions in the description and it came out BEAUTIFULLY. My first time making ice cream was a success! I added the condensed milk at the same time I added the milk and cream. I also added an extra tablespoon of vanilla extract because I didn't have paste or bean, came out perfect-very rich and creamy, but much better than blue-bell and cold stone. I recommend this recipe, and thank you Chef Ramirez!!
Condensed milk in what quantity and at what stage?
Dotuns Diners I used one 14oz can of sweetened condensed milk and added it at the same time as the milk and cream.
@@breanarucker8835 I'm sorry I don't mean to bug you but do you actually think the ice cream recipe is good enough to use commercially. You said it's better than blueberry/coldstone and I'm looking to start an ice cream business that's why I'm asking
@@Dotunsdiners It is VERY good, I would buy it, but it's so rich that I couldn't imagine any flavor besides vanilla, so you may have to tweak it a bit. Good Luck with your business.
Hello did you also use the ice cream machine ?
Thank you for this tutorial, I love your fun attitude! Made my first batch of ice cream without eggs....delish...but this recipe is my next batch! Yum
Great ice cream and he's sweet. I kept expecting him to start rapping ;-))
Lol I had the same feeling, but he's nice dude
Lmao okay😂
Plot twist : he is into her
Like a five star Michelin
@@eugeneordonez9753 Not a plot twist. It's your assumption that everyone believes he is gay. Very boring of you.
Awesome Ice Cream, easy to blend with other flavors as well. I did an orange and another key lime flavor that were amazing in the heat. I will definitely be saving this recipe!
Marquez is the man! Great job explaining the techniques and showing how simple ice cream making can be. Much appreciation boss, thank you!
My very first time making ice cream and I came across this recipe. It turned out delicious and perfect consistency! Delicious isn’t a good enough word for how creamy, rich…perfect! I don’t have to look any further for another recipe! Thank you for sharing your time and talent!
how much is 1 cup do you use? 240 ml or 250 ml?
@@anisanurraudah8383 1 us cup = 236.588 milliliters
For those wondering what ice cream maker he used, its Musso Mini 4080.
I love the Wendy's frosty tip. A great point of reference for someone who hasn't made ice cream before. Also shout out to the chef for the smell test trick. Would not have thought of that and probably would have ruined my ice cream. Thank you!
This was lovely to watch, I really liked how the Chef was really enthusiastic about making the ice cream. I am looking forward to trying this recipe out!
That chief is amazing, thanks for the recipe!
Yes! A chef with a sense of humour and knows how to explain things to people like me. 5 star instruction video, thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Thanks man, you went through the pain and willing to share- generous 👍legend 🙏
This recipe is PERFECT. Smooth, creamy. My only thing is to add a pinch of salt. I have been dancing around my kitchen for 30 minutes
dancing while cooking or after cooking?
I love this comment
I dance also while cooking…food somehow spicier😂. I’m David’s wife btw
And Chef you are so nice,thanks for the recipe That ice cream looked awesome.
You gave all the information and it was awesome bro. Thank you!!!!
When did he add the condensed milk?
This comment section is so over the top negative for what's an all around good video
we all know your lieing
@@die4seddy679 *lying
I watched, read through lots of comments. BTW, I'm a pastry chef. I don't have a Michelin Star and don't think this guy does either. It doesn't matter but I think titles can be deceiving. If you look at the video for overall process and technique, it's fine. I would also leave out the condensed milk. Lots of formulas online for French Vanilla frozen custard online. This is a good basic recipe - you could cut the eggs in half and still get a fine result.
Love this! Thank you!
Today is my daughters birthday. We made this recipe and it is the best ice cream ever. You helped make a special day even more special thank you.
usn038 did you use condensed milk?
@@lkeo48845 yes we used two cups of milk and cream , 1 can of condensed milk , and two tablespoons of vanilla. the 15 egg yolks and i can.t remember the sugar but we used what he said for that, then when it got down to 40 degrees we added oreos and put it in the machine.
usn038 thank you! We’re trying it now
usn038 thank you! We’re trying it now
@@usn038 which machine you were using?
Great effort! Really thankful that you shared this recipe.
This is the most instructional rap video I've ever seen.
Looks delicious, what was the machine you used?
The chef give really good explaination 🙏🙏🙏thank you so much
So glad I came upon this video. Never thought about using the blender for the eggs/sugar and then the hot milk cream! What a time saver.
Excellent demonstration!! Thank you! I also bought the Musso Lussino ice cream maker (like the one in the video).
I love his energy... I'm a KM and I know passion for cooking
He's has such a fun attitude :) This video was very fun and very informative, thanks!
Love his passion ice cream looks fantastic thank you for sharing :)
I liked this video! Thank you
Outstanding!
Is there a way of doing it without the eggs and sugar? Or example coffee ice cream using Half n Half with brewed coffee.
He was great!!!!! Nice job. As with everyone, where is the condensed milk that was cited in the recipe? Otherwise, he did an excellent job!
this came out amazing! super rich and creamy.
Phenomenal tutorial! Thank you, sir!!!
I tried, but it was so hard after overnight freezer. What can I do better? Thank you. It was still delicious.
Amazing tips here, and amazing technique!
I had the volume off at first. It looked like he was rapping the directions 🤣 He's making Vanilla Ice Ice cream baby. Definitely knows what he's doing tho. Great vid
LOL "ice ice baby"
Thanks for the video. I use vanilla extract, vanilla paste, and a split vanilla bean in my ice cream. Since heat destroys too much of the flavor of the extract and paste, I add the extract and paste after the mixture has cooled. I only add the split vanilla bean to the hot mixture.
Thank you
Awesome ice cream , thanks for sharing ,wl try asap ...
Thank you.
Thank you very much. I would like to make mango ice cream and i don't know how much should i put mango and when should i put the pureed mango thanks
Mind blowing recipe.
He failed to mention placing the custard base in a freezer for several hours (preferably overnight) after churning it in the machine. Churning at low temperature introduces air (known as overrun) into the mixture. The amount of aeration determines whether the finished product will be a dense, cold, and hard ice cream (lower overrun), or a soft serve style (higher overrun). Cheaper ice creams usually have an overrun of about 100%, meaning that 50% of the final volume is air (i.e. 1 L of custard base at 100% overrun will have a final volume of 1.5 L). Higher quality ice creams can have an overrun as low as 30% (15% air) resulting in a richer, more flavourful ice cream than a higher overrun custard. But, irrespective of the overrun, the custard base still needs to be frozen properly in order to stabilise the emulsifiers, water, and fats.
So you recommend freezing the custard base first and then churning to get less air in?
Great advise, thanks!
@@75erick75 after churning
Custard bases really do benefit from resting in the fridge, not the freezer, to let the flavors develop. A cold and well rested base will need less churning and leads to a less airy end product.
@@kakefisk after churning
What are the necessary things we need to keep in mind while keeping base in the freezer?
Thanks for sharing this now I want to try it with my family
this guy is gold. awesome video. thx!
The amount of flapping he did I expected Chef to take wing and flyaway. Good ice-cream.
hes nervous
Ok
I kn right
maybe he's a gay or a virgin.
@@korencek Speaking from experience?
Excellent ice cream. It is my first time I come across such an excellent recipe. I would like to use your recipe and make passion fruit ice cream......at what time do I add the concentrate pulp juice to the mixture mixture? . Many thanks I will keep your recipe for ever.
add the cold fruit before the churn.
masha Allah… nice vid, good explanations, do we need that many egg yolks bro/sis?
Wow! Was waiting for him to grab her hand and start doing the Salsa!!! Great video!! 😊
I made this and it was excellent! My go to for ice cream 🍨
Great! Thank you
Hi, im apri from indonesia.. i wanna ask how if i dont have an ice cream machine, can i make it just only stirr it constanly in stainless steel bowl with dry-ice below? Thank you and appologize for my english
Hi guys! In the recipe there is 1 condensed milk, but he doesn t mention it when is cooking. Isn't it?
I have been watching how to make ice cream WITHOUT having to buy an ice cream machine. And it turns out just as good.
Wow thanks for sharing cuz mine turns icy...😭 Did it double volume when u put it in the machine ice cream???
Thank you, I'm gonna try your recipe, it really looks great! You both are soooooo cute!!
Double thumbs up
Thanks!
Yumm💗
I'm wondering why the printed recipe does not match the video: no sweetened condensed milk, no salt, the sugar says 1/2 C but the video says 2/3 C....oh well.
Awesome video. Thank you to the chef!
Hi..can I use less than 15 egg yolks?..and is it better if I will add Xantham gum in this recipe?
Best vanilla ice cream I've ever had. And i've had a lot!
Lean Nielsen happy to know someone has noticed the good. Too many people complaining. Being on TV for the first time is a bit scary.
the eggs yolks make it richer and richer
The recipe shows condensed milk. Did you make this? If you did, did you use the condensed milk? I am asking you since you said it was the best. Thanks for your help.
Lane Horn The OP won’t get your comment. Stupid KZhead made it so that we can only interact with each other within a month or two. : /
Great job cheffff
I'll have to try this one out once I get my Lello. Looks like it would be best to use half the mixture at a time.
He makes it look easy. Nice clear instructions. I wanted to see how you get all the ice cream out of the machine, like the stuff stuck to the spinnie thing.
Please thanks it so so good
That was a good discussion of basic technique... I am going to be making this recipe.
Tracy T tell me if it works
Did you figure out when he added the condensed milk?
Thanks man, you're a great teacher, so straight to the point
I've tried this recipe with the condensed milk and it tastes beautiful, however it melts quite quickly as soon as I take it out of the freezer. What have I done wrong? Am I to leave the condensed milk out as it doesn't say say in the actual video?
thank you :D
I’m making gelato for about 20 people this weekend. I want to make it maybe a day or two ahead since it need to freeze. My question is what stabilizer is best to use? Xanthan, guar or locust gum? I
He's probably not used to being on camera, but I got to try this recipe 🤤
Mine came amazing! Didn't set the first time because it wasn't cold enough, I think, but I tried again with the same sauce the next day, and it came amazingly tasty. I did it with vanilla pods. Thanks for the advice!
real good
I love this man
Very explanatory
Wow great ice cream recipe
This recipe is amazing. Watch the full video and you will become an ice cream expert.
thanks a lot😘😘
Currently cracking the eggs to prepare this for later. I got an ice cream maker for Christmas and am really excited to use thus as my first recipe!
How did it turn out?
Fucking FANTASTIC. The texture and consistency as well as the flavor and sugar are wonderful. My only difference is a pinch of salt. Also this recipe isn't for a complete beginner to cooking. There are some things that need to be understood because the description doesn't match the video and really vice versa. My next goal is buttermilk ice cream. My goal for the machine in the first place.
i love what you do cause i also do the same
Informative and entertaining. Don't understand why some people in cmments can't disagree in a friendly way rather than bashing another person.. jees.
Thanks ,,
Thank you. It looks like a good recipe. But can you, please, show the frozen results? Is it a hard ice cream? As for me, I love hard ice cream balls.
love this guy hypnotizing
This information is so useful !!
Adorably awesome buddy👍👍👍
Finally someone showed how to make ice cream without raw yolks and resists turning hard as a rock.
the eggs is raw in the cup
@@fadhelmohammed9595 they are cooked
Ok so I love this chef. He’s adorbs
His very sweet! Thanks for the great vid. Can’t wait to do it myself .
Cheerful teacher
I just had some lush Carvel. But I will try this recipe and compare it to Carvel.lushness
