Re: Ice cream - without an ice cream maker

[Guest guest]

Cream, sweetener, egg and frozen berries or fruit in a food processor. It

comes soft but good.

Thanks Irene.

Do you need to remix it partway through or does one freeze do it?

I just mix and eat (quickly). I don't put it back in the freezer. The rozen

fruit makes it thick.

I've seen a lot of recipes that call for whipping the cream and

folding it in (or egg whites) then freezing it. Or freezing it,

stirring every 20 minutes.

I haven't tried it though, I do use an ice cream maker.

Here is one set of directions:

http://www.glamour.demon.co.uk/recipes/24.htm

If you do not have an ice cream maker, pour the cold mixture into a freezer

container, close the lid tightly and place in the freezer until set, about 3

hours. Remove from the container and chop roughly into 7 cm / 3 in pieces. Place

in the bowl of a food processor and process until smooth (or use a fork). Return

to the freezer and freeze again until firm. Repeat the freezing-chopping process

2 or 3 times, until a smooth consistency is reached.

Here is one that doesn't require an ice cream

maker:
