Once upon a time there were open-air movie theaters in Turkey. They were not only set in metropolitans but also throughout Turkey until 1985s.
The indispensable pleasure of open air movie theaters was without a doubt frigo buz (frigo ice), a kind of chocolate ice cream wrapped in folio.
The reduction of open air cinemas affected also the frigo buz and it disappeared from our palates.
Here is a nostalgic summer pleasure, a home made frigobuz!
Melt the chocolate with butter in bain-marie method. Set aside to warm.
Put the milk into a large, heavy bottom saucepan. Add starch, corn starch, cacao and sugar.
Bring to boil by stirring it constantly until the mixture turns thick.
Pour gently the melted chocolate to the mixture and stir until it is smooth.
To prevent it from crystallization, take it out of the freezer after 2 hours and beat it well with a mixer.
If you have an ice cream machine, churn it according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Spoon it into ice molds and let it cool in the freezer.
You can sprinkle crumbled pistachios and chocolate drops before serving.
