Historical origin
Ice cream is developed from frozen food. As early as 1 century, the king of ancient Rome told slaves to collect snow and ice from the mountains in summer for freezing fruits, honey and juice. The king often entertains his minions and foreign envoys with these frozen foods in summer.
Some researchers believe that ice cream originated in China. As early as 65,438+0,000 years ago, feudal princes asked people to take ice in winter, store it in the cellar and take it out in summer to enjoy it. At the end of the Tang Dynasty, people mined a large amount of saltpeter in the production of gunpowder, and accidentally found that saltpeter dissolved in cold water would absorb a lot of heat and even freeze the water.
From then on, people can make ice in summer without storing ice. At this time, there are merchants specializing in selling summer ice. They added sugar to the ice to attract customers. In the Song Dynasty, there were more frozen food patterns on the market. Merchants will also add fruit or juice to it. Merchants in the Yuan Dynasty even added fruit pulp and milk to the ice. This kind of frozen food is considered as primitive ice cream.
