This recipe represents a more traditional style of ice cream that requires a machine for proper churning. The eggs aren’t technically necessary, but I prefer the the richness they give the base; I also favor them for this version because it’s a variation on the ice cream recipe I learned in culinary school.
Stardew Valley Recipes: No-machine Matcha Lime Ice Cream
This ice cream method is probably the closest to the game, ingredients-wise. There’s only two elements: heavy whipping cream, which provides the fat which gives the ice cream its traditional smooth mouthfeel, and sweetened condensed milk, which provides the sugar that interrupts the production of ice crystals and makes the ice cream easier to scoop.
Bean Hotpot from Stardew Valley
Bean hotpot! It's one of Demetrius's favorite meals, it's healthy, it...might help you mine. At least, that's what Clint says when he sends you the recipe.
Fruit Salad from Stardew Valley
Other than being delicious and full of fruit, neither give much information about the recipe. We know there's melon, but as the game doesn't specify what kind, we have to guess. My personal guess? Watermelon.
Stir Fry from Stardew Valley
As a cook I'm lucky that the stir fry has some descriptors to give some direction for the flavor profile. We'll keep it simple: ginger and garlic as a base, sesame oil for subtle nutty flavors, and soy sauce and cornstarch as the base for the sauce.
