Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between custard and Philadelphia-style ice cream?
Custard-based ice cream uses egg yolks for a richer, creamier texture. Philadelphia-style uses no eggs, relying on cream and milk alone, resulting in a cleaner, lighter flavor.
How long should I churn homemade ice cream?
Most ice cream makers need 25-35 minutes of churning. The ice cream is done when it reaches soft-serve consistency. It then needs 4-6 hours in the freezer to firm up.
