Making Old Fashioned Vanilla Ice Cream with review of Nostalgia 4qt ice cream maker 2024

Happy Independence Day 2024! Welcome back. My daughter wanted vanilla ice cream for her birthday (4th baby, my firecracker) So I bought a Nostalgia 4 quart ice cream maker off of Amazon. I used an old recipe my mom used make when we were kids. It turned out very delicious and the Nostalgia 4 quart Ice Cream maker worked flawlessly and made easy work of it. It was actually kind of fun. Thanks for watching, please subscribe!
INGREDIENTS:
Ice Cream -
6 large eggs*
1 1/4 cups pure cane sugar
4 teaspoons vanilla extract
14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
24 ounces evaporated milk
1 teaspoon salt
6 cups whole milk**
Freezing Ingredients -
16 pounds ice
3 cups rock salt
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Start by creaming (or mixing) the eggs and the sugar together using a mixer.
2. Then add in the vanilla extract.
3. Next, mix in the sweetened condensed milk, scraping all the ooey gooey liquid out of the can with a spatula.
4. Add both cans of evaporated milk.
5. Add in a good-sized dash of salt, which equals out to about a teaspoon.
6. Mix everything together well.
7. Make sure your ice cream freezer, especially the canister, is washed out and ready.
8. Pour the mixture into the metal canister of your ice cream maker.
9. Finish topping off the canister with whole milk, making sure to fill it about 3/4 of the way full, leaving room for expansion as it freezes. Your metal canister should have a fill line.
10. Put the lid on, and place the metal canister down into the bucket of your ice cream maker.
11. Crush a big bag of ice, gradually pouring ice around the canister. Tip: You can add up to a gallon of water if needed, as well. We sometimes do this because our motor will seize up. Adding a bit of water will help it keep turning.
12. Add 2-3 cups of rock salt as you add the ice, making sure to top it off with rock salt.
13. Let the motor run until it stops. Once the ice cream is frozen, the motor on your ice cream maker will stop churning.
14. Unplug it immediately. This should signal that the ice cream is completely frozen.
15. Wipe any excess ice or rock salt off the lid and out from around the top of the canister. Then remove the lid.
16. Carefully remove the churning paddle.
17. Serve the ice cream immediately. If you’re not ready to serve it up just yet, you can always leave the lid on, remove the motor, top the canister off with ice, and place a towel or two over it to insulate it and keep it cold.
*Consuming raw or undercooked meats, poultry, seafood, shellfish, or eggs may increase your risk of food borne illness, especially if you have certain medical conditions.
**You can use Half & Half in place of the whole milk if you want an even creamier texture to your ice cream.

    Hello gradyrogers, how's your Sunday going sir? Thans for commenting. I agree I thought to myself there's a lot of ingredients in this recipe, and to be honest it's not cheap to make. But 4 quarts is a ton of ice cream. Next time I'm going to try cutting everything in half and see how that works out. Don't get me wrong It would be great for a large gathering, but even to save and freeze it's a lot of ice cream. I going to try and make coconut ice cream next. Have an awesome day, Grady!

    Hello gradyrogers welcome! Thanks for watching and commenting. I just posted the recipe under the description area. This was my first time I have made ice cream in many many years. My youngest is 25 years old so I'm guessing at least 20. ha-ha. Let me know if I can help out in any way. So go check out the recipe under the description area and let me know if that works for you. Please consider hitting the subscribe button, would love having Mr. Rogers in our community! Have a great Sunday, cheers Edman
