Why put the effort into churning your own ice cream? Here's why - and how, with three generations of the Lehman family! (Outtakes at the end of the video.) www.lehmans.com/category/ice-...
My Granddad always kept 1 brand new multicolored kitchen rug just for freezing icecream, we would fold it and lay it overtop the icecream freezer. I betcha I literally cranked hundreds of gallons growing up and you're right, the memories are irreplaceable ❤
My 12 aunts and uncles and my 17 first cousins would crank the ice cream, eat the ice cream and then we would sit in the back yard and listen to the older relatives tell stories under the stars in the dark. There were lightening bugs.
Men never made the ice cream at my house. The women made the ice cream. Everyone had a different recipe, and we needed more than 1 ice cream maker. Neighbors came too.
My grandparents and great aunts and uncles taught us to make ice cream -everyone had to take a turn at the crank - the youngest of us loved turning that crank!! Didn’t have as many cousins as you - only 14 😂 Boy was it fun tho - similar experience - listening to stories of ‘the old days’ - running barefoot in the grass while the lightning bugs came out!! Such peace and security as a child - they didn’t have money - they were poor Irish immigrants - but lots of love and simple fun! My grandfather also taught us how to make taffy 😳👍- which I’d had an iPhone to capture that memory!😂
Hand cranked ice cream makers are memory makers. It is a time to be with family & friends where conversation & laughter just happens. It could replace zoning out in front of the tube.
good vid guys. I remember picking wild blackberries for my grandma back in the 1970. She made homemade black berry ice cream. It was a powerful desert, you didn't want to spill any on the new white carpet. OOps, like I did as a six year old.
Does it make any difference in using a freezer with a stainless steel can vs. an aluminum can? I find that the stainless like in a White Mountain freezer will freeze ice cream faster than a freezer with the aluminum can.
Most frightening video Ive seen in twenty-first century was four well known ice cream brands left out in kitchen sink over a weekend. how long before you think they melted? Well the shock is - they never did! What ever additives are used today-Sunday evening the boxes of ice cream still had softened only, but where still in shape! globs of ‘what the heck’ ?! I dont think any parent, grandparent should let youngsters put those things in bodies. Enjoy All Natural icecream! (Im no relation to video makers here)Just FYI
I accidentally left a box in the sink some years ago--same thing happened! I don't eat ice cream except from Leopold's in Savannah--they make REAL ice cream!
