Did you know – in the process is that the machine actually churns air into the ice cream base as it freezes the mixture. After the machine has stopped either serve the ice cream as soft serve or place in the freezer to completely firm the mixture before it is scooped. Ice cream freezes as heat is absorbed from it by the ice and salt. Salt is used to lower the temperature of the ice as ice alone is not cold enough to freeze desserts by this method.
To freeze the ice cream use 8 parts ice and 1 part salt. Finely crushed ice melts faster and hastens the freezing, so it is best to crush the larger pieces.
