Ice
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,

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.

Cantabile Youth Singers of Silicon Valley
Our students, ages 4-18, enjoy weekly rehearsals, seasonal concerts, participation in
the annual Cantabile Festival for Young Voices and domestic and international tours.
They are frequent guests with premier symphony, opera and ballet companies, and
have performed in famous concert halls the world over-including Carnegie Hall in NYC,
the Vatican in Rome and the Cathedral of Notre Dame De Paris.
Christianne Mares, owner of Gelataio.
ICE CREAM
Continued from page 21
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,

Party favors
RICHARD GERE’S ‘NORMAN’ GLAD-HANDS HIS WAY TO POWER
favor, preferably by the subtlest
of means, is the stuff of the new
film from writer-director Joseph
Cedar: “Norman,” aka “Norman:
The Moderate Rise & Tragic Fall
of a New York Fixer.”
Israeli filmmaker Cedar
(“Footnote”) here imagines an
international scandal in the
making, stemming from a
“chance” encounter between titular Manhattan “fixer” Norman
Oppenheimer (Richard Gere)
and low-level Israeli politician
Micha Eshel (Lior Ashkenazi).
Taking a roll of the dice, Norman impresses Micha with a
big, costly gesture of friendship.
to make Norman a fascinating figure of vision, chutzpah,
persistence and flop sweat, and
a parade of foils (including
Charlotte Gainsbourg, Josh
Charles and Hank Azaria) to
help put relief into the comical contradictions of a man
who’s undoubtedly sad but also
a surprisingly estimable people-person. 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.
Rated R for some language. One
hour, 57 minutes.

THE VOICE
000 (Guild)
You scratch my back, I’ll
scratch yours. Since the “Citizens
United” ruling, some Americans
have harbored an intensified
suspicion of how money talks in
the political sphere, but such concerns are as old as government
itself. The fine art of currying
It’s a gamble that pays off when
Eshel becomes Prime Minister of
Israel, giving Norman a friend in
high places to beat all.
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.

QMOVIEREVIEWS
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.

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.
