Who was invented first: the ice cream or the fridge?

Did you know that ice cream was invented long before the fridge and freezer? That's right! Although the origin of this refreshing delight has been lost in time, it is likely that ice cream appeared in China around 3,000 years ago. In the beginning, it was more like the current slushie, it did not contain milk and was usually made with snow, fruit juice and honey.

Despite being surrounded by legends and many controversies, it is known that the history of ice cream has a strong connection with the evolution of refrigeration techniques. In 1100 BC C., the Chinese already knew how to conserve the ice formed naturally in winter to use it during the summer. After all, no one would want to be eating ice cream in a freezing cold, right?

Until the creation of the mechanical refrigerator, at the end of the 19th century, a cook, to serve ice cream or other desserts and beverages chilled on hot days, it depended on natural supplies of ice, taken from lakes and rivers during the winter or from the top of the mountains. mountains.

In order to be conserved, this ice was stored in underground deposits lined with insulating materials, such as wood, and covered with sawdust. As long as there was an adequate system for draining the water, ice could be stored that way for months or even years!

Around the 13th century, another important discovery about refrigeration allowed the improvement in ice cream production: that adding salt to ice lowered the temperature of the mixture to less than 0°C. From then on, all you had to do was put the already beaten ingredients in a metal container and put it inside another larger wooden container with a mixture of salt and ice, the ice cream froze much more fast!

At that time, however, it was still far from having that smooth texture we know today and did not carry milk or eggs. It was not until the mid-17th century, probably in Italy, that the new ingredients were incorporated into the recipe.
