📍Ingredients:

• 1 gallon whole milk
• 12 medium-sized crabs (picked, shells and seasoning reserved)
• Heavy cream (to taste)
• Vermouth (to taste)
• Itaberco neutral soft serve mix
• Buttercrackers (for garnish)
• Olive oil (for garnish)

Step 1: Infuse the Milk

➤ Pour the whole milk into a pot and bring it to a simmer.
➤ Add the crab shells and seasoning from the cooked crabs.
➤ Let the mixture steep for 15 minutes, then cool and refrigerate overnight for maximum flavor infusion.

Step 2: Strain and Mix

➤ The next day, strain out the crab shells to reveal the infused milk.
➤ Add heavy cream to increase richness and a splash of vermouth for depth.
➤ Mix in Itaberco’s neutral soft serve base to create a smooth, ready-to-churn mixture.

Step 3: Churn

➤ Pour the mixture into your soft
serve machine.
➤ Churn until it reaches a creamy, smooth consistency.

Step 4: Taste and Adjust

➤ Sample the soft serve. It should be distinctly crab-forward with a hint of spice and a kiss of vermouth.
➤ This flavor is unique and works best as an appetizer or amuse-bouche rather than a dessert.

Step 5: Finish and Serve

➤ Crush buttercrackers and use as a base or topping for added texture.
➤ Drizzle with olive oil for richness and a fruity note.
➤ Serve as a creative starter, tasting menu item, or small bite.

Notes:

➤ This is a savory soft serve, perfect for chef-driven, inventive applications.
➤ The neutral soft serve base allows the crab flavor to shine without interference.
