Kitchen Tip Tuesday



Summer means one thing at our place... ICE CREAM SEASON! We eat ice cream year round, but I feel justified to enjoy it more when it's not -30! We make almost all of our ice cream in our handy-dandy ice cream maker. Our ice cream maker makes about 1.5 quarts of ice cream -- which is just perfect for us.

With the leftovers, we freeze them in the Ziploc Twist and Lock 2 C containers.


This works really well for us because:
  • It keeps our ice cream fresh because we're only thawing a smaller container of ice cream as we're waiting to scoop the ice cream into our dishes.
  • The containers stack great in the freezer, and allow us to empty containers out of the freezer when we finish a couple cups, which helps us save precious freezer space.
  • We can have multiple kinds of ice cream in the freezer at any one given moment....! Right now we have vanilla, cherry and orange sherbert!
