seriously easy to make gourmet ice cream

[Brian W (Brian)]

Hi all, the following recipe once tweaked to individual preferences makes the best ice cream you have ever eaten at a ridiculously low cost in money and effort.

(1) chill 3 cups of cream

(2) put 1/3 cup of water and 3 table spoons of butter in a pan and boil. Then combine until smooth with 1 cup powdered milk, 2/3 cup sugar and chill

(3) chill mixing bowl and egg beater

(4) when everything is cold add 3 tablespoons of sugar to cream and beat until stiff.

(5) add your favourite flavour to what you made in step 2 and combine whipped cream with flavoured sweetened milk (step 2 stuff)

(6) put it in the freezer.

about 6 hours later enjoy about 3 litres of high calorie great taste.

PS, one of my favourites is chocolate coffee ice cream which is a very tasty way to get your caffeine fix on a long nights observing.

Saw a great article in Scientific American years ago. You take the chilled, but not frozen ice cream liquid and mix it with an equal volume of liquid nitrogen.

The liquid nitrogen freezes and aerates the mix creating tiny crystals which is apparently what makes good icecream.

Best done at the dinner table in front of your guests - but it is necessary to issue them with protective equipment.

At work they run courses on liquid nitrogen safety. Naturally no one was keen to attend yet another safety course and so numbers were pretty low. The bloke running the course then included making liquid nitrogen icecream and attendance has been much higher ever since. I'll ask him for the recipe - just in case.

If memory serves the rather strange scientist who mentored the hero on the t.v. show 'Numbers' made ice cream that way for a dinner he gave. It was quite spectacular.
