How to make ice cream
Have you ever had a really bad craving for ice cream? Who hasn’t? You check your freezer. There are five ice cream containers, but they are all empty except the corners where the spoon couldn’t reach. Do you panic? Do you puree cauliflower and syrup and then freeze it? No! You just follow these simple steps and find yourself for how to make ice cream and eating homemade ice cream in no time flat. If you have access to things like salt, ice, milk, sugar, and plastic bags, consider yourself in business.
Things you require for how to make ice cream
1 1 cup milk or half and half (Preferably whole milk)
2 2 tablespoons of sugar
3 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla or vanilla flavoring or cocoa
4 ice
5 1 container of salt
Process for how to make ice cream
1. Mix sugar, milk or half & half, and vanilla extract, vanilla flavoring, or cocoa in a bowl, then put it in a quart-sized plastic bag.
2. Secure the plastic bag, making sure that it is sufficiently sealed. A Ziploc type bag that seals and unseals works best. It is usually best to double-bag the quart-sized bag to prevent leakage.
3. Take roughly two quarts of ice (crushed if possible) and place it into the gallon-sized bag. Ideally, the gallon bag will be roughly half full with ice.
4. Add the salt into the gallon-sized bag of ice. Most ice cream makers use rock salt, and it can be purchased in nearly any grocery store. It may be labeled as "cubed sodium chloride", which is just a fancy way of saying rock salt.
5. Place the sealed quart-sized bag with the ingredients into the gallon-sized bag. MAKE SURE THE BAGS ARE STILL SEALED! Do not empty the contents of the smaller bag into the larger.
6. Gently agitate the bags for about ten to fifteen minutes. In this amount of time the contents of the quart (smaller) bag should start to turn into solid ice cream.
7. Use a towel or an old t-shirt to hold the bags as you massage them; they will be quite cold and might become slippery with accumulated condensation. Consider using gloves or massaging while holding onto the top seal if a towel or similar cloth is not available.
8. Remove the smaller bag, open it up, and grab a couple of spoons!
