Mixed berry crumble
Migas de horno que siguen crujientes dentro del helado, con frutos rojos ácidos en salsa. Lo tostado contra lo afrutado.
This one gains a lot from a long ageing: let it mature cold for up to 72 h. The vanilla pod keeps infusing in the cold and the flavour rounds out and deepens.

Chef's notes
- ·Use good Bourbon vanilla pods: the result depends directly on the aroma you start with.
- ·Do not skip the cold ageing: it hydrates proteins and stabiliser and clearly improves the texture.
- ·The serving temperature depends on your recipe: if you formulate to a softer PAC than your freezer (say -11 °C with the chest at -18 °C), temper it for 5–10 min before serving; if the PAC matches your freezer, it can be eaten straight out.
- ·Why formulate at -11 and not at -18 °C: even though your freezer sits at -18 °C, formulating at -11 makes the ice cream sepa mejor — at -18 it is so cold that the taste buds barely pick up the flavour and the fat is slow to melt in the mouth. And envejece mejor: ice cream formulated at -11 and kept at -18 has less free water, suffers less from Ostwald ripening (ice crystals joining and growing) and keeps its creaminess longer.
- ·Keep your own notes: write down the POD and PAC that work best with your machine.
Cómo
has to stay
Las migas siguen crujiendo dentro del helado, que es lo difícil: el baño de manteca de cacao impide que el agua llegue a ellas. La fruta va aparte, en salsa, así que el contraste entre lo crujiente y lo jugoso aguanta.
Todo sobre este
mixed berry crumble
Vanilla ice cream is the backbone of any artisan gelato shop. Its apparent simplicity hides the challenge of striking a perfect balance between purity, creaminess and body. This recipe uses good Bourbon pods for a natural vanilla and that characteristic speckling of black dots, the sign of a proper extraction.
The ingredients and what each one is for
La fruta o el cacao ponen el sabor. Los azúcares hacen el trabajo silencioso: dan cuerpo y evitan que la salsa se endurezca dentro del helado. La inulina aporta sólidos casi sin dulzor, y la pectina espesa lo justo para que quede fluida en frío y no gelificada.
How to ripple it
Un veteado no se mantece: se elabora aparte, se enfría del todo y se incorpora al helado ya batido. Lo que hay que controlar es que siga blando a −18 °C. Si va corto de azúcar se convierte en una piedra dentro de la tarrina; si va sobrado, se escurre y acaba tiñendo el helado entero.
Storage and common mistakes
Guárdalo tapado y en frío, y añádelo cuando el helado ya está mantecado, nunca en la mezcla. Los dos fallos de siempre: vetearlo templado, que en vez de dibujar la veta se funde y lo mezcla todo, y pasarse de cantidad. El veteado acompaña, no manda.
