Ingredients:
- 1 kg. Of tigernuts
- 4 litres of water
- cinnamon stick (to taste)
- lemon rind
- 75 to 125 grams of sugar per litre of final product (according to consumer taste)
- it can also be made without sugar.
How to prepare it:
The tigernut must be soaked. The soaking time of the tigernut, so that the tigernut milk has a very pleasant taste, should not be more than 6 - 7 hours in summer. A longer time makes the tigernut mouldy and causes the tigernut milk to have a watery taste. The difficulty that comes with not having it soaking longer is the grinding, because the tigernut is harder, but it will certainly taste better if you respect this time limit.
The tigernuts are washed well
Wash the tigernuts well, to remove any trace of dirt and remove those that are deteriorated. Then they are crushed (with an electric mixer), water is added to the pulp obtained and left to macerate for several hours, after which it is strained with a fine cloth. Add sugar, cinnamon and lemon rind. It is left in the ice cream maker serving it very cold.
The sweet taste of tigernuts makes them a great snack. Having dried them after harvesting they are hard, but if they are soaked in water between 14h and 24h hours they rehydrate and become soft again
