How to improve honey ice cream

Check out these ideas to make better ice cream.

• Chill the container before adding the churned ice cream. Room temperature containers slightly melt the ice cream, causing ice crystals.
• Once you add the ice cream to the container, add a layer of glad wrap to reduce ice crystal formation.
• Adjust your freezer to the coldest setting; faster hardening produces the best ice cream.
• Consider adding a liquor, like vodka, towards the end of churning. It reduces the ice cream’s freezing point and acts as a stabiliser.
• To make a denser, creamier ice cream add 2-3 extra egg yolks. Discover why eggs are added to ice cream on this resource page about eggs.

How to make honey ice cream without a machine

If you don’t have an ice cream maker, follow these steps:

• Instead of adding the ice cream base to an ice cream maker, transfer it straight to the freezer in a container.
• When the base starts to harden, remove it from the freezer and whisk until smooth.
• Place the dessert back in the freezer and whisk every 20 minutes until hardened.
