It has happened to us all.On a hot summer day, we get frustrated because we are able to eat that delicious ice cream fast enough to prevent it from becoming a puddle.But now, the Japanese have a revolutionary solution: an ice cream that doesn't melt.
The Japanese have created an ice cream that doesn't melt
Thanks to an accidental discovery made by a chef, a team of scientists Japanese has developed a way to make and sell a n type of ice cream that does not melt .Most conventional ice cream begins to melt moments after it is removed from a container and placed in a bowl or in a cone.
For this reason, people have become accustomed to eating it as quickly as possible, but now that is about to change, as Japanese researchers have found a way to keep the ice cream shape , no matter how slowly you eat it.
The ice cream was created by mistake after being asked to a chef in Japan find a way to use strawberries harvested in areas impacted by the earthquake and tsunami in 2011.They did not grow in a normal way, so customers do not buy them.The chef tried to use strawberries from other ways, and at one point he complained that caused the cream to solidify.
When taking note of the chef's complaint, a team from the University of Kanazawa carefully examined and discovered that a compound called polyphenol in strawberries was responsible for solidifying the cream.They found that the extract makes it difficult to separate water and oil , which is what happens in the ice cream we usually consume They tried to mix it with the ice cream and found that it prevents the ice cream from melting.
Because the extract is completely natural, it does not require tests by health inspectors, but was made available to local ice cream owners who gladly started selling ice cream in fun forms on sticks.
Local media published the story, and soon, the news spread throughout the world.
The press has claimed that the taste of ice cream is even better with this new formula and they have highlighted how well it faces warm temperatures.Some customers keep their ice cream for many minutes in direct sunlight to see if it melts.Others took a tougher approach, submitting the samples to hair dryers or other artificially heated environments.
The results are surprising.ado keeps its shape for several hours at high temperatures , and after all, it feels cold in the mouth.
Because the ice cream that doesn't melt is still so new, it is not clear if it will be sold in other countries.Currently, is only for sale in Japan .
Do you dare to try it?
