ce cream is one of those desserts that most people purchase, whether at a grocery store or an ice cream parlor. And while there’s something sweet about grabbing an ice cream cone while you’re out on the town, it’s just as fun to make ice cream at home. Though the recipes are simple, there is an art to achieving that perfectly creamy, mouthwatering consistency and flavor, and five local ice cream shop owners and chefs shared their wisdom with the Voice about how to reproduce it at home. To start, you’ll need an ice cream maker. Cindy Somasunderam is the owner of Scoop Microcreamery in Palo Alto, and she started making ice cream more than 30 years ago at home. She recommended KitchenAid’s ice cream attachment ($100) because it’s relatively affordable, compact and many people already own a KitchenAid mixer.

‘Melty ice cream is ... one of the biggest enemies.’ LAURA SUNSERI OF TIN POT CREAMERY
Elizabeth Prado, resident chef at the culinary program at Sur La Table in Palo Alto, recommended the Breville Smart Scoop ice cream maker ($400), a pricier option for the serious home cook. The machine also allows you to speed up the process with a “prechill” option that makes ice cream within 45 minutes. For Laura Sunseri, operations manager at Tin Pot Creamery in Palo Alto, her “must-have” tool is the humble scoop. She recommends the Zeroll ice cream scoop ($18.50), which has a gel liquid inside of it that transfers the heat of your hand, making it easier for the ice cream to come out of the scoop. “You get a better scoop, and it protects your hand from getting cold,” she said. It’s always wise to take a look at the the recipe you’re using to make sure you have the correct tools, but experts generally recommended stocking up on: a thermometer, digital scale, heavy saucepan, two to three bowls for ice baths and freezing, a blender or mixer, whisk, wooden spoon, spatula and an airtight container. Ice cream, as well as some flavors of gelato, is made from a simple custard base of milk,

Q RECIPES Christianne Mares’s hazelnut gelato • Yield: 1 quart • 2 cups whole milk • 1 cup heavy cream • 4 egg yolks • 2/3 cup sugar • 1/2 cup hazelnut paste*
See ICE CREAM, page 22
*Hazelnut paste: Spread 1/2 cup of hazelnuts on a rimmed baking sheet and roast in a preheated oven at 360 F for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes until the hazelnuts are fragrant and the skins start cracking. Remove nuts from the oven, wrap them in a clean kitchen towel and let them
sit for about 10 minutes. Rub the hazelnuts in the towel to peel off the skins. Let them cool to room temperature. Use a coffee grinder or food processor to grind the hazelnuts into a paste. Gelato In a saucepan, combine milk
and cream and place over medium heat, stirring often, until the liquid reaches 175 F. While the milk mixture heats, in a large bowl, beat together egg yolks and sugar with an electric mixer at medium speed until thick and pale, 2 to 3 minutes. Slowly pour the hot milk into the egg-and-sugar mix while beating continuously. Return
the mixture to the saucepan, and cook at medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until it reaches 185 F and is thick enough to coat the back of the wooden spoon. Do not let it boil. Strain through a fine mesh strainer into a clean bowl, cover the mixture with plastic wrap, and let it cool at room
temperature. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 4 hours. Whisk or blend the hazelnut paste into the cold gelato mixture until fully incorporated. Churn in a gelato or ice cream maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions, then transfer to an airtight container and freeze for 2-3 hours before serving.

cream, egg yolks and sugar. Prado referred to this as the “mother sauce” or creme anglaise, which is the base for other desserts, like creme brulee. So, if gelato and ice cream have the same ingredients, what sets them apart? Christianne Mares of Gelataio in Palo Alto said that gelato is made with “way more milk than cream,” resulting in a lower fat content than ice cream. “We churn less air into the product. That means you have a denser product (and) it’s heavier. We serve it at a higher
temperature, which gives it an intense flavor,” she said, adding that the colder something is, the less flavor it is perceived to have. When making ice cream, there are two styles, Prado said: Philadelphia and custard. Custard style uses eggs, while the uncooked Philadelphia style does not. Custard-style ice cream is richer as a result of the egg yolks, Prado said. Whether you’re making ice cream or gelato, start by heating the dairy ingredients. According to Prado, heating the milk and cream changes its protein structure and yields better results. You’ll then blend the egg yolks (if you’re using them) with the sugar
and “temper” the egg mixture with the milk and cream. Prado claims that tempering is the most challenging part of the process. It simply means slowly introducing the hot cream into the blended egg yolk mixture to avoid curdling the eggs. Once the eggs are tempered, Alfonso Marquez Ramirez, the pastry chef at Chez TJ in Mountain View, recommended bringing the whole mixture up to 170 or 175 degrees at maximum to avoid getting to the point of making “scrambled eggs.” At this point in the process, you can add your desired flavoring, such as vanilla extract or mint leaves. After the ice cream base reaches 170 degrees, let it cool in an ice bath, using two bowls, one larger than the other. Fill the larger bowl with ice and sit the smaller bowl with the warm ice cream mix inside. Prado recommends straining the batter to catch any cooked egg pieces. It’s also important to wait for the batter to completely chill, Ramirez said. “If you put it into the ice cream machine when it’s warm, (the machine) will over-whip to bring it down,” he said. “You’ll have really fluffy ice cream with too much air, and when you go to freeze it, you’ll end up with chalky ice cream.” If you want to add mix-ins like chocolate chips or pieces of cookies, Prado recommended adding them once the ice cream firms up,

Cedar maintains a big picture view inspired by the real-life 18th-century figure Joseph Suss Oppenheimer, whose relationship to a German duke inspired the archetype of “the Court Jew.� As big as that picture can get (international politics), Norman and Micha ground the picture in a humanity inevitably compromised by politics, and the runaway situations therein. Norman earns his “tragic fall� by operating according to his own loose set of ethics and valuing machinations just a little bit more than sincerity. The film’s thoughtfully dramatic construction, built around a central symbol of a pair of shoes, addresses politician’s voracious desire to “go places,� ever outpacing forethought of where that ambition will take them and the true costs of doing business.

Before and after that reversal of fortune, Norman remains true to his “professional� essence: he’s a hustler, a power broker, an expert in keeping up appearances (despite having no office and precious few quantifiable resources). Norman’s self-styled job is to keep balls in the air as he constantly scans the landscape for new opportunities, new connections he can make for himself or between his acquaintances. And so his relationship with Micha becomes a commodity. The Prime Minister persists in viewing Norman as a genuine friend, but Norman cannot help but see opportunity for himself and those in his circle he’s desperate to impress, most notably his nephew Philip (Michael Sheen) and a rabbi (Steven Buscemi) seeking protection for his fiscally threatened temple. Meanwhile, Norman remains on the run, keeps his act together so tenuously, that one wonders if he even has a home: it’s not beyond him to park himself on a public bench for a spell or to raid the pantry at the temple for a snack of pickled herring on a Ritz.

Q MOVIEREVIEWS
COLOSSAL 0001/2
Spanish writer-director Nacho Vigalondo’s new film “Colossal� serves as the grownup edition of “A Monster Calls� by using a deliberately juvenile premise to speak to adults who need to grow up already and address the issues holding them back. Anne Hathaway plays Gloria, a callous, selfish blackout drunk Manhattanite who returns to her sleepy hometown and immediately runs into her old schoolmate Oscar (Jason Sudeikis). It’s immediately clear that Oscar always had a thing for Gloria, which now manifests in his lavishing her with attention and favors, like a job at the bar he owns and operates. He and Gloria bond over post-shift drinking bouts in the company of Oscar’s loyal barflies Joel (Austin Stowell) and Garth (Tim Blake Nelson). These romanticcomedic goings on share real estate with a world-shaking event: the appearance of a giant, devil-horned creature on the coast of Seoul, South Korea. Gloria discovers that she’s linked to this monster, which keeps destroying everything in its path. And so we find ourselves, with Gloria, neck deep in an allegory of id. Rated R for language. One hour, 50 minutes. — P.C.
FRANTZ 0001/2
François Ozon plunges into the depths of the human heart and mind in his
post-World War I drama “Frantz.� Based on the 1932 film “Broken Lullaby,� the story takes place mostly in Quedlinburg, Germany as Europe continues to reel from World War I, with nationalism just another word for hatred of the so-called enemy. And so, when a Frenchman named Adrien (Pierre Niney) begins frequenting the grave of a fallen German soldier named Frantz, he unearths freshly buried resentments. When Frantz’s erstwhile fiancee Anna (Paula Beer) spots Adrien leaving flowers on Frantz’s sadly empty plot, a not-quite-placeable dread begins to rise in her. Soon, Adrien enters into the lives of Anna and Frantz’s parents. He explains that he was a bosom friend to Frantz (portrayed in flashbacks by Anton von Lucke) in Paris, when Frantz was stationed there, but there’s obviously more to his story than meets the eye. Of course, certain truths about Frantz and Adrien will come out, further complicating the burgeoning relationships between Adrien and Anna, and Adrien and Frantz’s parents. “Frantz� unfolds at a stately pace, with a controlled mood fostered by psychologically incisive performances all around. Rated PG-13 for thematic elements including brief war violence. One hour, 53 minutes. — P.C.
GOING IN STYLE 01/2
“Going in Style,� the 2017 remake of Martin Brest’s 1979 bank-caper comedydrama, is polished but hollow. Written by Theodore Melfi (“Hidden Figures�) and directed by Zach Braff (“Garden State�),
the movie center around three old codgers who often kibitz about how they’ve earned the right to be able to enjoy their pie in their old age (and be able to afford it whenever they wish). A heavyweight trio of Oscar winners play the codgers, which gets this “Going in Style� as far as it was going to go. At the film’s outset, all three — Joe (Michael Caine), Willie (Morgan Freeman) and Albert (Alan Arkin) — lose their pensions following the acquisition of the steel company where they worked for decades. The trio hatches a crazy plan to rob a bank that, in a twist of ethical convenience, has some responsibility for enabling their financial plight. Given modern security measures, this plot makes for an even harder sell in 2017 than in 1979. This tenaciously populist, unreasonably optimistic feel-good fantasy fully embraces comedy, covering its ears and braying “Nah nah nah!� to drown out the original film’s darkness and realism and genuine emotion. RatedPG-13 for drug content, language and some suggestive material. One hour, 36 minutes. —P.C.
BOSS BABY 001/2
Loosely adapted from Marla Frazee’s 2010 children’s book, “The Boss Baby� constructs an elaborate fable of hardfought sibling rivalry overcome. The shortest distance between the two points of a child’s fear and jealousy at a baby sibling’s arrival, and acceptance and love

out for the executive track, and hence the Boss Baby (voiced by Alec Baldwin), a cubicle dweller who dreams of one day taking the top office in the baby biz. After a strong start, “The Boss Baby” turns out to be fairly one-note in its humor, and not as lively as you would assume it would be. But the animation charmingly evokes an earlier era (despite some fresher references, the style is 1950s-ish), and Oscar winner Hans Zimmer turns in a winningly John Williams-esque score. Rated PG for some mild rude humor. One hour, 37 minutes. — P.C.

But this version takes a wild ride on corporate chutes and ladders to get where it’s going.
