3 Essential Tips for Storing Homemade Ice Cream
- Store ice cream in the back of the freezer
When ice cream warms and cools too much an unpleasant grainy texture develops. Keep
ice cream stored in the back of the freezer where the temperature is the coldest and most
consistent. - Use a shallow, flat container
Shallow, flat containers help keep ice cream at an even consistency. Perfect for scooping! - Don’t store your ice cream on the freezer door
It’s an easy storage spot for sure, but PLEASE resist the urge. Items stored in the freezer door are subject to the most temperature fluctuation. Save that space for butter and bread.
