Recipe: Sea Salt Ice Cream

Ever wonder what those delicious looking Sea Salt Ice Cream Bars on the Kingdom Hearts series taste like? Well, I definitely have! Lucky for you guys, I just happened to find a recipe for it! Rumor has it that Disneyland in Tokyo actually has these delicious concoctions. That's where it came into play in Kingdom Hearts when director Tetsuya Nomura tried one at the resort, he wanted to somehow incorporate it into the game.

Recipe and Information from: The Geeky Chef

Ingredients:

2 eggs

2 c. milk

1/3 cup sugar

1 t. vanilla

1 c. heavy whipping cream

sea salt to taste

blue food coloring (optional)

ice pop molds (optional)

Directions:
Separate the eggs into two good sized bowls and beat the egg whites until stiff. Mix the egg yolks and sugar until thick. Slowly bring milk to boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Pour hot milk into yolk/sugar mixture and mix well. Pour milk/yolk/sugar mixture back into pot and heat on medium until thicker to make a custard. Do not boil. Pour custard in with beaten egg whites and mix well. Add sea salt (keeping adding salt until it tastes salty sweet). Put mixture in fridge to cool. Once cool, add cream, vanilla and coloring to mixture. Freeze, following your ice cream maker’s instructions. If you wish, get some ice pop molds. Spray the inside of these with very little PAM spray (or something similar). Then pour the ice cream into the molds right after it comes out of the ice cream maker. Pop the lid on and the stick in and freeze for at least two hours.
