Tips:
- Choose high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the ice cream will taste. Use fresh milk, cream, and sugar. If you're using fruit, make sure it's ripe and flavorful.
- Don't over-churn the ice cream. Over-churning will make the ice cream icy and grainy. Churn the ice cream just until it is thick and creamy.
- Let the ice cream ripen before serving. After churning, let the ice cream rest in the freezer for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and develop.
- Serve the ice cream with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include chocolate sauce, caramel sauce, whipped cream, and fresh fruit.
