I. Have. Given. Instructions. Repeatedly. On. How. To. Make. Homemade. Ice. Cream.
A. Churn. Or. Machine. Is. Not. Necessary.
Frozen. Cream. And. Sugar.

Fixed.
Some ice creams are made with more of a custard, by the way.

THAT WAS A BASIC RUNDOWN. YOU CAN ADD STUFF TO THE MILK.

still needs to be fluffed up though no ?

 

[Sapphire Sebright]

But not the same as Ben & Jerry’s Netflix & Chill’d

But there are so many more possibilities... what is your favorite flavor? Your favorite dessert?
Work with it enough, and chances are pretty good that you can make it into ice cream.

Right, not milk -- sorry.
Stir it enough throughout the process, though, and it will get pretty smooth. Maybe not as smooth, but still pretty good.

Still not ice cream

That's what the stirring is for! I have explained this!
When the mixture starts to freeze around the edges, you scrape the container down and stir it. Wait a little, until more has frozen, and stir it again. Keep stirring every so often, increasing your stir speed as it gets thicker and thicker. This breaks up the ice crystals, giving the finished product a smoother texture. After a while, it will get extremely hard to stir -- like stirring cement by hand. At this point, eat it straight, or just let it firm up some more.

Hmmm true but that would take sooo much experimenting and such as opposed to just cutting down to one or two real ones a month or something. but might be worth it.

Hmmm I guess that makes sense but doesn’t it need like whipping or a lot of air added ?

Ice cream churns basically follow the same process that I've outlined before with the freezing and stirring, but they stir it constantly, thereby creating a smoother texture. By hand, it's nigh impossible to get as fine a texture, but not all ice creams that I've had have been super smooth.

STIRRING.
USE A WHISK.
Like beating whipping cream or egg whites by hand.

Oh a whisk makes sense! I thought it was with a fork and just like moving it around a little rather lol
