An ice cream wizard brings the magic home

Columbus, Ohio — Ask most people whether they would be willing to pay $10 for a pint of ice cream, and they will probably say, “No, thanks.” But start listing flavors from Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams , and they might reconsider: Salty caramel, sweet corn and raspberry, and brown butter almond brittle sound more like edible art than a simple summer snack. All it takes is one bite to get hooked.

A visit to Jeni’s offices here seems to confirm that idea. Founder Jeni Britton Bauer, 37, who studied art in college, wears owl-shaped glasses and has her dirty-blond hair pulled back in a ponytail. She sits at a white oval desk in a sunny office that looks as if it belongs in a tech company from the dot-com boom. There are white boards on the walls, scribbled with ideas for new flavors, and a well-curated selection of fashionable cookbooks. (“ Ad Hoc at Home ,” the latest from Napa chef-restaurateur Thomas Keller , serves as her mousepad.) Every day at 3 p.m., Bauer stops what she is doing to taste ice creams.

But when Bauer starts to talk, it’s not about new flavors or ice cream as art. It’s about milk proteins, the temperatures at which various fats melt and how water acts like kryptonite, zapping the frozen treat of its creaminess. After more than a decade in the business, Bauer knows it takes more than artistry to make great ice cream.

That is the lesson she has set out to teach in her new cookbook, “ Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams at Home ” (Artisan). It is, she claims, the end of the goopy, soupy, eggy, grainy and, yes, icy ice creams that she thinks most recipes produce with a countertop maker. And it’s this simple: Leave out the egg yolks that most recipes call for. Heat the milk, cream and sugar at a rolling boil for exactly four minutes. Add some cornstarch and a nub of cream cheese, and a quart of creamy, rich, scoopable ice cream — a $20 value! — is yours.

Simplicity, though, took time. Bauer didn’t even know what a milk protein was on the night in college when she made her first batch of “hot chocolate,” dark chocolate ice cream mixed with cayenne essential oil. “I thought it was the coolest thing ever. I thought I invented it,” she remembers. That is, until she went to the library and discovered the Mayans had developed the combination thousands of years ago. But the flavor was such a hit among her friends that Bauer began to think seriously about a career making ice cream.

But the air temp is much lower. Do I have to worry about that? I tried to increase the air temp with a lamp and low wattage bulb but this made the substrate too hot. What should I do?
