Helado tailandés: Rolled ice cream histórico

Rolled ice cream is the best thing ever. It’s an unbelievably delicious frozen dessert that is made up of a mixture of cream, milk, sugar and pretty much any flavour you can dream of – the possibilities are endless. Rolled ice cream originated in Southeast Asia, with Thailand often getting the credit for inventing the sensational sweet treat. It’s also common in other countries, including Malaysia and the Philippines, and can be found across the globe. Here in the UK, Pan-n-Ice were one of the first companies to pioneer the innovative ice cream trend. Ice cream rolls are a lot more exciting than that – they’re made fresh to order, by hand, right in front of your beautiful eyes. To make ice cream rolls, super cold flat metal pans are used – and when we say super cold, we mean -30° (so really, really, ridiculously cold). The mixture is then sliced and diced using metal spatulas to fuse the flavours together and introduce air, for a lighter texture. Finally, the flavour-packed blend is flattened into a rectangle and separated into strips, before finally being rolled up into spirals – and voila! Beautiful ice cream rolls!

Stir-fried ice cream (Thai: ไอติมผัด, romanized: ai-tim phat or Thai: ไอศกรีมผัด, romanized: ai-sa-krim phat), also known as rolled ice cream or ice cream rolls, is a sweetened frozen dessert. It is made using milk, cream and sugars as well as other added ingredients to improve the flavor. The liquid mixture is stirred constantly to incorporate air spaces on an ice pan and simultaneously cooled to −30 °C (−22 °F) in a motion somewhat resembling stir frying. The rolls are placed in a vertical position in an ice cream cup, topped off with various toppings and decorations, and eaten with a spoon. This frozen dessert originated in Thailand under the name "Thai rolled ice cream" or "stir-fried ice cream" (I-Tim-Pad). The product is made with a milk base combined with various fresh ingredients and different toppings served alongside this dessert. The main ingredients include the liquid base, which is commonly milk or soy milk and comes in generic flavors, such as vanilla, chocolate, coffee, and strawberry. The process to create stir-fried ice cream takes an average of two minutes. The flavored milk-based liquid is poured onto the ice pan, a freezing-cold stainless steel surface that is chilled by a refrigeration unit, where it is chopped and manipulated until the liquid becomes a cream. Other required ingredients are added and the mixture is chopped and probed until a creamy texture has formed. The mixture is spread in a thin layer across the pan, then starting on one side the ice cream or gelato is rolled into its cylinder shape with the use of a spatula. The rolls are placed in an ice cream cup and decorated with any desired toppings.
