The Best Kind Of Ice Cream To Make For Anyone's First Attempt - Tasting Table

"Luckily, there's a simpler kind of ice cream that's best for your first attempt: Philadelphia ice cream. Not to be confused with Philadelphia cream cheese or the Philadelphia roll, Philadelphia ice cream is a delicious homemade version sans eggs. That means, no cooking or risk of scrambling the eggs before churning them with milk and cream - which means less headache and a quicker preparation of 20 or 30 minutes."

"To make Philadelphia ice cream, just combine cold milk and cream with sugar, vanilla, and any other flavorings in your ice cream maker and let the appliance do its thing. The resulting ice cream is velvety and light, with accentuated dairy and vanilla notes compared to egg-based ice cream, where the custard mellows out the other flavors. Since eggs typically provide both flavor and emulsification properties, it is key to note"

Philadelphia ice cream is an egg-free, no-cook frozen dessert made by combining cold milk and cream with sugar, vanilla, and other flavorings, then churning. The texture is velvety and light with pronounced dairy and vanilla notes because it lacks custard. Eggs normally add flavor and emulsification, so Philadelphia ice cream lacks long-term freezer stability and can deflate, weep moisture, and develop freezer burn after about a day. The cream adds some stability, but the ice cream is best eaten soon after making. The style is beginner-friendly and useful for learning an ice cream maker's settings.
