Making ice cream is easy and worthwhile, but there are a few things to keep in mind:

  • Make sure the ice cream maker is very cold. Keep it in the freezer for a long time, and don't take it out until the last minute.
  • Too much starch in a custard doesn't translate well in ice cream. (See corn ice cream for an example.)
  • When making a custard (w/ eggs), strain it and cool it immediately in an ice bath to stop cooking.
  • Make sure the custard is very cold as well. Ideally, refrigerate it overnight, and put it in the freezer for 10 minutes before making.
  • Freeze a container as well for storing the ice cream.
  • Store the custard in a pitcher with a sharp point, which will make it easy to pour into the ice cream maker. We've used a gravy pitcher, which is handy when there are things in the custard you want to strain, such as a vanilla bean. However, for thick custards (like chocolate ice cream, the custard will not go through the separator easily.
