Ingredients:

1 liter of milk

1 cup of whipping cream

1 and 1/4 cups of sugar

5 mastic gum pieces

2 tablespoons of salep (orchid root powder)

Instructions:

In a mixing bowl, combine the milk and whipping cream using a wooden spoon. Slowly dissolve the sugar into the mixture while keeping it cold.

Heat a pot on a high flame. Once heated, add the milk and cream mixture, stirring continuously.

As the mixture starts to heat up and everything begins to boil, add the mastic gum. Once the mastic gum is melted, gradually add the salep while continuously whisking with a wire whisk to avoid clumping.

Keep stirring the mixture until it thickens. The consistency should be similar to a light béchamel sauce rather than a thick pudding.

Strain the mixture through a sieve to ensure there are no lumps or impurities.

Prepare a rectangular baking dish with dimensions of about 38cm by 28cm and a height of 5cm. Line the dish with plastic wrap.

Pour the milk, cream, and salep mixture into the dish. Optionally, sprinkle some crushed pistachios on top for added flavor and texture.

Allow the mixture to cool completely, and then place the dish in the freezer for about 4 hours.

Once the mixture has frozen, take it out of the freezer and roll it into a cylinder shape.

Spread crushed pistachios on a tray and roll the ice cream cylinder over the pistachios to coat it entirely.

Wrap the ice cream roll with plastic wrap and return it to the freezer for at least 6 hours.

Bon Appetit!
