We have been making homemade ice cream for years now. I love the fact that I can make any flavor I like, reduce the amount of sugar, and the fact that it doesn't have additives.
We use Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker. First time my then curious toddler see how the machine works:
We made a lot of ice cream and create lot of memory with the ice cream machines over the years
Some tips and tricks I learned on Ice Cream Making: {so that you don't make the same mistakes I did}:
- We use Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker, which has yet fail us these past 8 years.
- For the heavy cream: Do NOT use the ultra-pasteurized one {like the one normally sold in most grocery stores. I also don't like the one that Costco sells}. I got mine either from Trader Joe's or Wholefoods.
- Use digital scale for more exact measurement of weight:
and measuring cup to measure the liquid:
- You will need a thermometer. I use this one:
- You will also need strainer. I use this OXO one:
- Use only Vitamin D or whole milk for better texture.
- Feel free to adjust the sugar to your liking.
- Use David Lebovitz's recipes in his book: The Perfect Scoop
Happy Ice Cream Making!
