How to make ice cream and put natural color in it?
- Firstly, what you will do is you will be needing a sauce pan. In a saucepan, combine the sugar, cream, and milk and cook over low heat until the sugar fully dissolved. Heat until the mixture is steaming hot and a little ring of foam forms around the edge.
- Fill a pourable container, such as a big measuring cup, with the cream mixture. Add the natural color which ever you would like to add (your choice) & vanilla extract (because we are making vanilla ice cream) and chill the mixture for at least 2 hours. (It's better to leave it overnight.)
- Pour the chilled ice cream mix into an ice cream maker, set it on, and churn for 20 to 25 minutes, depending on the manufacturer's instructions.
- Serve immediately when the ice cream is gently frozen, or wrap it in plastic wrap and set it in the freezer for 2 to 3 hours to ripen.
But What if you don’t have ice cream machine can you make ice cream at home?
Ofcourse!! You can make ice cream at home as well you will need to follow these steps to make a delicious ice cream at home.
- First of all, to begin, place the bowl and beaters in the freezer overnight. You must chill the cream and condensed milk in the refrigerator rather than the freezer.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the condensed milk and vanilla essence & natural color. Set this aside for now. Cool the bowl by pouring the chill cream in it.
- Start whipping with an electric mixer, a stand mixer, or a hand mixer. Depending on your cream, whip until soft or firm peaks form.
- Add 1 to 2 scoops of this should be added to the condensed milk. You can also mix condensed milk into whipped cream straight. However, we prefer to do it this way as a precautionary measure to avoid deflating the cream.
- Stir it lightly to ensure uniform mixing.
- Pour it over the whipped cream.
- Stir carefully to ensure even mixing without deflating the whipped cream too much.
- Place the mixture in a freezer-safe container or box. Cover the mixture with cling wrap or a food-safe plastic sheet. It must make contact with the cream. This reduces the formation of ice crystals. Freeze for at least 8 hours after covering the box.
- After 15 minutes of being out of the freezer at 30 degrees C, it will begin to melt. If you're serving it at a party, scoop the mixture into ramekins and freeze it for up to an hour before serving.
