How to make liquid-nitrogen ice cream safely — Speaking of Chemistry

Kitchen chemistry expert Matt Hartings demonstrates how to make delicious — and safe! — liquid-nitrogen ice cream. ↓↓More info and references below↓↓ Liquid nitrogen helps make speedy, creamy ice cream. But this frigid liquid can be potentially hazardous if handled improperly. In this episode of Speaking of Chemistry, host Kerri Jansen visits American University's Matt Hartings to discuss why people are screaming for liquid-nitrogen ice cream and learn how to minimize risks when serving it up. Consumers should aim for ice cream that is soft and easy to scoop, Hartings says. Ice cream that is hard or crunchy may be too cold to eat safely. A spokesperson for Dippin’ Dots, which uses liquid nitrogen to flash-freeze beads of ice cream at its factory before shipping the frozen treat to stores, says its ice cream is stored at –40 °C (–40 °F) before it’s served to customers. At that temperature, the ice cream is considered safe to eat. Read more: What’s ice cream, and why do we scream for it? | C&EN https://cen.acs.org/environment/food-...
