Making Ice Cream in a Bag
Have you ever made homemade ice cream? It can be a lot of fun, and you end up with a tasty frozen treat! Craving for ice cream is a frequent passion that everyone has. Once one faces this passion, one usually makes a run down to the local grocery store for a pint of ice cream. But that’s not necessary, don't go running down to the store or market for an ice cream fix. If the house consists of these core ingredients: salt, ice, milk, sugar, and vanilla extract, then consider making it yourself. In this essay I will teach the simple method of making ice cream at home: gather the supplies, mix the supplies, and prepare and enjoy.
First things first, get out the milk; any kind will be fine such as: strawberry and chocolate. Those types of ice cream can be made as well as vanilla, even though vanilla is the best. Get out the sugar and the vanilla extract next (only if you want to make vanilla ice cream). Vanilla extract may look weird when added, but trust me it makes the ice cream taste a lot better. Now you’ll need to get out a two quart sized plastic bag, that’s just the small one that children use daily for their lunch boxes. Be sure to squeeze all of the air out of this bag, because too much air inside can make it open during the mixing process, which wouldn’t be too good. Inside this bag you will need to pour ½ cup of milk, 2 tablespoons of sugar, and if you’re making vanilla ice cream, ½ teaspoon of vanilla extract. Place this bag of mixed ingredients inside another quart sized bag so that you won’t get salt and water into your ice cream when it comes time to shake the bags. This is called double-bagging, I’m sure moms appreciate this because it prevents them from cleaning up huge spills.
Next, get out a bigger lunch bag and place the double-bagged bags inside the bigger one. The most fun part is getting closer. After placing the double-bagged bags inside the bigger one, get ice
