Home-made ice cream

Because, why not?

After watching a Youtube tutorial on how to make ice cream just using a hand mixer, my girls and I decided we should go for it. Today.

First, place a mixing bowl inside a bigger basin with a lot of ice. To make the ice last, dump a lot of sea salt in it.

Ingredients are pretty basic: All purpose cream, condensed milk, and vanilla extract.

You need to incorporate air, lots of it, by whisking the cream and adding other ingredients slowly. You whisk the cream until it peaks.

Add crushed Oreos if you so desire. Or melted Hershey chocolate bar.

When done, pack it in a reusable ice cream tub that you have saved to contain other food stuff (because you’re Asian, you hate waste, so you reuse stuff).

Freeze for 12-24 hours. Best if you hold off and eat it after 24 hours. I need to keep my girls from haunting the freezer.
