Notes

Trying to remove egg from the recipe, I'm experimenting with replacing it with unflavored whey. So far this seems promising.

Sous vide is only run at 170. It appear that 162-167 is sufficient for denaturing of the proteins and making a smoother ice cream, while rumor suggests 180 may cause effects that make the ice cream gritty. So I tried 170 for half an hour.

Result

Very soft out of the churn. Waiting for this to set in the 0F freezer to see how much it solidifies. The taste is very cleanly milk, and not custard. Too soft after 3-4 hours in the freezer. Will need to taste again to see how it finishes setting. Consider adding another scoop of whey if it's still too soft.
