Since time immemorial we know of kulfi as this decadent frozen dessert which can be found at every Indian restaurant and occasions such as weddings. Made with reduced full fat milk, flavoured with either cardamom or saffron, kulfi is a must-have in summers but ask any kulfi lover and he’ll tell you how it is an all-season dessert! While it is similar to ice cream in appearance but is denser and creamier than that. It is traditionally served on a stick but can also be eaten from a plate or out of a cup. And did you know that even the name kulfi has an interesting legend around it?

As per legend, a mixture of dense evaporated milk was already prevalent in the 16th century, but it was the Mughals who came up with a way to flavor this milk with pistachios and saffron, packed it into metal cones and froze it in ice, and that is how kulfi was born. Even the word kulfi comes from the Persian word kulfi meaning “covered cup”. Interesting, isn’t it? So now we know that Mughals didn’t just invent the rich and royal curries and kebabs but even delicious sweet treats such as kulfi ice Cream!
This delightful dessert is prepared by cooking sweetened or flavoured milk slowly, while stirring constantly, so the milk does not stick to the bottom. It is cooked until it is thickened and reduces by half. It also helps give kulfi a distinct flavour by caramelizing the sugar. The thickened milk is then poured into moulds and frozen in ice. Nowadays people simply put it in the freezer, but in earlier times it was frozen in a vessel filled with salt and ice. The vessel was well insulated, protecting the Malai kulfi from outside heat and thus slowing the melting time of the ice.
