ICE CREAM DICTIONARY
Posted by: Turkey Hill Team
Emulsifiers are compounds added to ice cream to develop the right body, texture and air distribution necessary to make the ice cream smooth and creamy. The original ice cream emulsifier was egg yolk, which was used in most of the earliest recipes. Today we use monoglycerides and diglycerides, which are really just substances derived from common vegetable oils like corn. Together with stabilizers -– which aid the emulsifying process -– these ingredients make up just one quarter of one percent of all ice cream.






If you’ve got a technical question about the ice cream making process or some other inquiry about the nuances of America’s favorite treat, chances are Ernie has the answer. He might not be able to answer all questions, but he’ll try his best and some may be featured on the Ice Cream Journal.
