MHCO residents make pretty tasty homemade ice cream
Earlier this month residents of Mennonite Home Communities of Ohio made homemade ice cream. They sent the Icon the recipe. They even provided some photos. Here goes:
Try it yourself with this fun and simple recipe:
• In a pint or quart-size zip-lock bag, mix ½ cup of milk or half and half, 1 Tbsp. sugar, and ¼ tsp. vanilla. Tightly zip the bag.
• In a gallon-size zip-lock bag, mix 6 Tbsp. rock salt (or ice cream salt) with ice cubes that fill up half of the bag.
• Place the small bag in the large bag and zip it closed.
• Shake until the mixture has an ice cream consistency (about 5 minutes).
• You may need to hold the bag with a cloth as it is cold and drippy!
Wipe the salt off the small bag, open it carefully, and dig in with a spoon!
