The Indian Kulfi Ice-cream (plate 14D) is a unique dessert. The entire process is based on the dehydration technique. Kulfi was traditionally prepared by evaporating (dehydrating) sweetened and flavoured milk by slow cooking. The slow continuous stirring of the milk allows not sticking to the bottom. In the process the volume reduces to the half thus thickening it, increasing its fat, protein and lactose density. It has a distinctive taste due to caramelization of lactose and sugar during the lengthy cooking process. The semi-condensed mix is then frozen in tight sealed moulds that are then submerged in ice mixed with salt to speed up the freezing process. The ice/salt mix, along with its submerged Kulfi moulds, is placed in earthen pots or matkas that provide insulation from the external heat and slow down the melting of ice. Kulfi prepared in this manner is hence called 'Matka Kulfi'. Kulfi, thus prepared by slow freezing, also renders a unique smooth mouth feel that is devoid of water crystallization. In the process of preparing Kulfi dehydration technique is the most important component. Traditionally dehydration technique is widely used in preserving various food products (14A&C). Dehydrated land (14B) is a common site during the summer months in the Indian subcontinent. The scorching summer sun evaporates the moisture from the soil which turns the land dry and cracked.
