YOU WILL NEED:
1/2 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 tablespoon sugar
4 cups ice
6 tablespoons of rock salt (regular salt will also work)
2 quart size Ziploc bags
1 gallon size Ziploc freezer bag
The Science Behind It-How Does This Happen:
What does the salt do? Just like we use salt on icy roads in the winter, salt mixed with ice in this case also causes the ice to melt. When salt comes into contact with ice, the freezing point of the ice is lowered. Water will normally freeze at 32 degrees F. A 10% salt solution freezes at 20 degrees F, and a 20% solution freezes at 2 degrees F. By lowering the temperature at which ice is frozen, we are able to create an environment in which the milk mixture can freeze at a temperature below 32 degrees F into ice cream.
1. Fill the large bag half full of ice, and sprinkle the salt over the ice. Seal the bag.
