how a ice cream machine works

People have spent much longer time making ice cream than inventing electricity, so even without a machine, you can still make ice cream at home!

The advantage of using an electric machine is that the final ice cream will be smoother and creamier. Freezing anything from liquid to solid means you are making hard ice crystals, so when your ice cream or mixture freezes, you need to break down these ice crystals as much as possible so that your final ice cream is as smooth and creamy as possible.

So, I recommend starting with a custard-based ice cream recipe to get the smoothest texture. You can use vanilla ice cream or other favorites, or even use Greek or drained yogurt for this strawberry frozen yogurt recipe. The richer the formula, the creamier and smoother the result will be. Ice cream made in this way is best eaten immediately after making, because it contains less air when compared to traditional mixing ice cream.

Making ice cream with a machine

1. Prepare the ice cream mixture and pour it into the machine tank.

2. Press the working button.

3. After thirty-five minutes, make an ice cream to check.

4. Check regularly and stir while freezing until the ice cream freezes.
