Some of us just love ice cream, and there is nothing as having the convenience of being able to make it home with your very own electric ice cream maker.
An electric ice cream maker like the name suggests makes ice cream using an electric motor to churn and cool the content however that’s a layman’s way of describing the process.
For those of us who have a sweet tooth for frozen treats then follow up closely because this will bring the ice cream closer to you and it’s a sure way to give your guest home desert and to impress them too.
First, you’ll need your electric ice cream maker, and your ingredients and you’re good to make:
Mix and freeze the recipe of your favorite ice cream for at least an hour.
Fill up to two thirds of the metal can freezer, with the mixture in the ice cream maker.
Put the dasher/paddle inside the can of ice cream and put on the lid to close it.
Insert and attach the handle and turning mechanism to the can with the mixture into the bucket of the ice cream maker, and insure everything is held on and the content is locked securely within the bucket.
Use rock salt and ice to pack the region between the can and the bucket. A layer of salt is poured on top of the 4inch ice layer.
Crank until the mixture in the bucket becomes somewhat difficult to crank anymore, this will take up to ten minutes. Remove the mechanism and lib and see if the content is soft cream and has volume.
Remember though; some of the electric ice cream makers-counter tops, need the mixture resulting from the cranking be frozen a few more hours to or overnight depending with the model and also depending with your recipe, this is to ensure consistency in the hardness of the ice cream that is desired.
