    Home made ice cream receipts, please...

    How do you make home made ice cream that is comparable to "Taste & Texture" to commercially made ice cream. Don't eat it very often , but would like to have decent receipt for every now & then.

    I've gotten boxes of ice cream mix at the grocery store that turn out pretty good.
    Making it from scratch never seems to work as well.

    OK People. Enough of this idle chit-chat.

    Most commercial ice-cream has too much air whipped into it. Good homemade will have a denser texture and a creamier taste.

    need an ice cream machine for this. I hijacked from someone a couple years back
    2 cups heavy cream
    1 cup whole milk, full fat
    1/2 cup granulated sugar
    1/4 cup light brown sugar
    2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract, Use clear vanilla if you prefer
    generous pinch vanilla bean powder
    pinch salt

    In a large saucepan over medium-low heat, add heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar and light brown sugar.
    Stir until sugar has dissolved.
    Let mixture heat until it becomes a bit frothy. (do not boil)
    Remove from heat and place mixture in a large bowl.
    Let cool slightly and stir in vanilla extract & vanilla bean powder.
    Stir in a pinch of salt.(Taste to make sure the vanilla flavor is to your liking.)
    Cover with plastic wrap, being sure the plastic wrap touches the surface of the mixture to prevent the top from developing a skin.
    Refrigerate for 3 hours. (Overnight if possible. It NEEDS to be really cold)
    Remove from fridge and follow the directions of your ice cream maker.
    After churning in the ice cream maker for about 20 minutes pour ice cream into an ice container and freeze overnight if you prefer a harder ice cream. (Homemade, eggless ice cream has firm, soft-serve texture)

    This makes 1 gallon.
    2 cans of sweetened condensed milk
    12 oz cool whip (generic is fine)
    1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract
    whole sweet milk

    Add the sweetened condensed to about 3 pints of sweet milk and stir until well mixed.
    Add the vanilla and stir in well.
    Blend in the cool whip until well blended.
    Pour into your 1 gallon freezer and add enough sweet milk to bring up to the fill line and then freeze.
    This is how we have made it for the last 40+ years. You can add chocolate or the fruit of your choice or almost anything you would like. just reduce the milk proportionally to just reach your freezers fill line.
    We can no longer find 12 oz containers of cool whip only 8oz 16oz so we usually get 3 8oz containers and make 2 gallons at a time.

    Thanks DCB ! The farm across from us raises Jerseys. Wow do they make the cream. My wife and I are spoiled. We get whole milk all the time. My wife makes great ice cream but her mix requires 4 egg yokes. Gona try your formula. Best regards.

    Raw unpasteurized cream/milk makes way better ice cream than pasteurized cream.

    If you have a fear of egg salmonella you can get "pasteurized" eggs that go thru a process to kill germs. May have to hunt for them, I have to go to a bigger city to find them.

    This is cheating but my grandmother used this recipe when I was a kid. It makes really good ice cream with gram crackers crumbled over it.

    But they had a dairy farm so raw milk and cream were abundant.

    Until you've had goats milk ice cream you dont know what good is.
    We have several Nubians and even using store bought ice cream mix is better then store bought ice cream. If we want to get creative I open the Ice Cream Bible that I got at the book store. About 250 recipies.

    Not really sure why someone would want to make it like store bought. Thats like when I'm making beer and someone asks me if I can replicate coors or bud (both VERY NASTY). I just want to reach over and slap them.
