It’s no joke that ice cream in Hawaii is not in the typical student’s budget. Ice cream is a luxury but making your own can be a way to still indulge but also stay on budget. Basic homemade ice cream is simple and easy to make.Ingredients:6 Tablespoons saltIce½ cup milk¼ teaspoon vanilla1 Tablespoon sugarMaterials Needed:1 pint-sized plastic bag1 gallon-sized plastic bagDirections:1. Add milk, vanilla, and sugar to the pint-sized bag. Be sure not to mix up the sugar and salt or the ice cream will not taste very good! Seal the smaller bag tightly; try to get all the air out of the bag.2. Fill the gallon-sized bag about halfway with ice. Add six tablespoons (or more) of salt to the bag.3. Place the smaller bag inside the larger bag, seal it tightly, and shake, shake, shake. This should take anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes. Periodically check to see if the ice cream-to-be is hardening. When you find it to be a desirable consistency, it’s done.4. Open both bags, take out the smaller bag that contains the ice cream, and voilà! You have your ice cream. Just pour the contents in to a bowl and dig in. This recipe makes a single serving, but you may multiply the recipe as you choose to feed all you wish.
