INGREDIENTS

1/2 cup of milk 1 tablespoon of sugar 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract (if you want it to be extra sweet,use 2 teaspoon) Alternate flavor: if you want chocolate ice cream, add 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder 4-6 tablespoons of salt 2 trays of ice

STEP

Freezer Bag Method

1. This is good for making individual servings of ice cream to be eaten promptly after making. The video at the bottom of this article shows how to make ice cream with a sandwich bag.

2. Take roughly two quarts of ice, crushed if possible, and place it into the gallon-sized bag with rock salt (also known as coarse salt). Ideally, the gallon bag will be roughly half full with the ice and salt mixture.

3. Place the sealed quart-sized bag with the ingredients into the gallon-sized bag. Make sure the bags stay sealed. Do not allow the contents to mix at any time. If the bags don't seal sufficiently, use duct tape to seal the top of both bags to ensure they don't open during shaking.

4. Gently agitate, massage, and shake the bags for about fifteen to twenty minutes. In this amount of time the contents of the quart bag should start to turn into solid ice cream. It is important that you are mixing the contents of the inner bag, but you don’t want to be so aggressive that you burst the inner bag or cut it on the ice. Double-bagging should prevent this. If your hands get uncomfortably cold, use a towel or an old t-shirt to hold the bags as you massage them; they will be quite cold and might become slippery with accumulated condensation. Consider using gloves or massaging while holding onto the top seal if a towel or similar cloth is not available.

5. Remove the finished ice cream from the sandwich bag and serve.

Pot-Freezer Method

1. This is how ice cream was typically made before modern refrigeration, using ice cut from lakes and ponds. Hand-cranked ice cream machines are a variation of the sorbetière (a covered pail with a handle attached to the lid) which is a French adaptation of the pot-freezer method.

2. Put the ice cream ingredients in a bowl.

3. Put the bowl in a tub filled with ice and salt. Make sure the ice and salt mixture doesn't spill over the edges or into the bowl.

4. Mix the ingredients of the bowl vigorously. The salty ice water will absorb heat from the mixture, bringing it below the freezing point of water and turning the mixture into ice cream.[1] It's important to mix as thoroughly as you can to prevent the formation of ice crystals. If you can, use a whisk or better yet, a hand-held mixer.

5. Remove ice cream from the bowl and serve.

Freezer Method

1. This method works best with a custard-based recipe that incorporates eggs, because the result will be much smoother. Since it involves a good bit of waiting, however, it may not be the most immediately gratifying for kids.

2. Pour the ice cream mixture into a deep baking dish, or bowl made of plastic, stainless steel or something durable in the freezer.

3. Put it in the freezer for 30 minutes.

4.Check the mixture. When it starts to freeze at the edges, take it out and stir it vigorously with a spatula until all the ice crystals are broken up. If you can, use a whisk or a hand-held mixer.

4. Check and stir every 30 minutes until the mixture turns into ice cream. This might take 2-3 hours.

Coffee Can Method

1. This is very similar to the bag method, except instead of using two bags, you use two coffee cans, one bigger than the other.

2. Put the ice cream mixture in the smaller coffee can. Seal tightly.

3. Put the smaller coffee can in the big coffee can along with ice and rock salt. Seal the large can tightly.

4. Shake the large can vigorously for about 10 minutes. Kids can roll or throw it around, but make sure the cans are sealed well and do it outside, just in case. Check the small to see if the mixture has turned into ice cream yet. If you see ice crystals forming, stir or whisk.

5. Continue shaking, rolling, or throwing until ice cream is formed.

Ball Method

1. This can only be done with a commercial product that mixes ice cream within a specially made ball with two chambers.

2. Fill the ice end with with ice and 1/2 cup of rock salt (3/4 cup if using the larger size ball) and close by hand.

o Standard ice cubes may not fit. You might need crushed ice.o You'll probably need at least 10 ice trays' worth of ice.

3. Pour the ice cream mixture into the end with a metal cylinder. Leave an inch (2.5cm) at the top for expansion and close by hand.

4. Shake, roll, and pass the ball around for 10-15 minutes. The ball will probably be heavier than you expect.

5. Open the ice cream end with the plastic wrench that comes with the ball. Scrape the sides of the cylinder with a plastic or wooden spoon (metal will damage the cylinder). Close the lid by hand.

o Since the chamber is narrow and deep, stirring the ice cream might be difficult. If necessary, use the wooden handle of a spoon or spatula.

6. Check the ice end. Open the lid with the plastic wrench. Pour out any water and add more ice and up to 1/3 cup of rock salt. Close the lid by hand.

7. Shake, roll, and pass the ball around for 5-10 minutes.8. Check the ice cream. Repeat the above steps as needed, or eat the ice cream as is.

o When you pour the ice cream out, be careful that it doesn't spill into the raised decorative ledges and tight crevices; these may be very difficult to clean later on, especially if you use chocolate chips.

o The ice cream tends to be "soupy" in the middle and solid along the edges.

SORBETES

Sorbetes, popularly known as “dirty ice-cream”, is already part of our culture. Old books and literature depicts this two-wheeled colorful ice cream cart pushed by old fellow. His ringing hand bell is music to the ears of most children. Sorbetes has been a big part of my childhood years. This is one of my rewards after pulling grandma’s gray hair. A loose change for running errands for my relative can afford me to buy 2 scoops of ice-cream on top of sweet crunchy “apa”.

Here’s the recipe that will cost you a few hundred pesos to produce a decent home-made ice-cream. Add a few thousand pesos more to produce the quantity for commercial consumption.

Ingredients:

1/2 gallon powdered milk 1-1/2 gallon coconut milk 1/3 gallon evaporated milk 2 kilo sugar 1/3 kilo corn starch

Procedures:

1. Mix all ingredients using mixer (or egg beater) until the consistency is foamy.2. Pour in a stainless steel pan or boiler. Let boil for 15 minutes to kill any microbes or

bacteria. Set aside to cool.

3. Put desired flavoring (artificial flavors): vanilla, lemon or kalamansi (can be obtain from peels), chocolate, coffee, nuts, cashew and others. You can also use real fruit flavors like mango, ube, macapuno, cheese, etc.

4. Put into freezer for half an hour or until half-frozen.5. Remove from freezer and mix again (with big wooden spon or egg beater) until the

consistency becomes a thick mass.6. Transfer it in round stainless container. Cover, put it in wooden push cart. Put lots of

crushed ice and salt between the container. You can use dry ice as an alternative.7. The ice-cream will get hard in 20 minutes.

Apa (ice-cream cones) : You can buy them from grocery stores in different sizes.
