To make homemade ice cream without rock salt, you can try using simple ingredients and a few alternative methods. Here's a step-by-step process:
1. Gather the Ingredients:
- 2 cups heavy cream: It provides richness and creaminess.
- 1 cup whole milk: It adds texture and reduces the fat content.
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar: It adds sweetness to the ice cream base.
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract: It enhances the flavor.
- Ice cubes: You will need these to create a freezing environment for your ice cream mixture.
2. Prepare the Ice Cream Base:
- Combine the heavy cream, whole milk, sugar, and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl. Whisk together until the sugar is dissolved completely.
3. Chilling the Mixture:
- Cover the mixing bowl with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for about 1-2 hours. Chilling helps the flavors meld together and results in smoother ice cream.
4. Freezing without Rock Salt:
Method 1: Ice Cream Maker:
- Pour the chilled ice cream base into your ice cream maker. The machine will churn the mixture while freezing at the same time, following the manufacturer's instructions.
- The ice cream maker eliminates the need for rock salt and simplifies the process. It typically takes around 20-30 minutes for the ice cream to reach a soft-serve consistency.
Method 2: Freezer Method:
- If you don't have an ice cream maker, you can still make ice cream in the freezer.
- Pour the chilled ice cream base into a shallow, freezer-safe container with a lid.
- Place the container in the freezer for 1 hour.
- After an hour, remove the container from the freezer and vigorously stir the mixture with a fork or whisk to break up any ice crystals.
- Continue to repeat this step (stir every 30-45 minutes) for the next 3-4 hours until the ice cream reaches the desired consistency.
5. Enhancing the Flavor:
- Once your ice cream base has reached the desired consistency, you can add mix-ins like chocolate chips, cookie crumbs, berries, or nuts. Fold them gently into the ice cream before transferring it to a lidded container for further freezing.
6. Final Freezing:
- Once the desired consistency is achieved and any additional mix-ins are added, transfer the ice cream to a lidded container. Make sure to press plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the ice cream to prevent ice crystals from forming.
- Place the container in the freezer and allow the ice cream to harden for at least 4-6 hours or overnight.
7. Enjoying the Ice Cream:
- After the final freezing period, your homemade ice cream without rock salt is ready to be enjoyed! Serve it in bowls, cones, or create delicious sundaes with your favorite toppings.
Remember, the texture of homemade ice cream without rock salt might be slightly different from traditional ice cream made with an ice cream maker or rock salt, but it will still taste delightful.
