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

Only if you are trying to make “low fat” ice cream.

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

You could also theoretically use a fork. Just get the muscleman in your household to beat it with all due violence and gusto.

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 night impossible to get as fine a texture, but not all ice creams that I've had have been super smooth.

I am picky. Ice crystals can make it feel like eating sand

Beating the mixture is good stress relieve. Smooth stress relieve.
Toss in some cusses, too -- terrorize the crystals into submission.

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.

When I was a kid my job was to turn the handle on top the ice cream maker
Yayyy for me (sarcastic)

Kind of like my brother turning the crank on the meat grinder.
Teaches patience and perseverance. Builds character.
