Creamistry – n. the science of creating ice cream using Liquid Nitrogen and not to be confused with the ice cream shop of the same name [4]. Ice cream does not seem complicated to make, but contrary to popular belief it’s not as simple as just freezing cream and sugar. Rather, this complex process requires slowly freezing cream to allow small ice crystals to form, creating a creamy texture. The process can be long and arduous, but there’s a secret ingredient for much speedier ice cream: liquid nitrogen.
