When making your own ice cream, you're in control. Traditional dairy ice cream can instead be made with soy or rice milk. Local, fresh ingredients will make the best ice cream in any case.
Once you have your homemade ice cream base mixture, the list of ingredients and flavors to add are endless. Use your imagination and try something unusual like lavendar or pretzels.
Warmer weather or cool weather, this one is everyone's favorite - ice cream! Whether you are an ice cream purist and your favorite is vanilla or you like everything but the kitchen sink in your bowl, nothing beats homemade ice cream.
Making ice cream has become infinitely easier with electric makers, but old fashioned hand crank makers evoke a certain nostalgia and provide a bit of extra physical effort.
