What each ingredient does
- Juice
- Provides the liquid base and the flavour of the ice cream.
- Vanilla extract
- Adds aroma to the mixture.
The step that matters
Pack the mold in ice and coarse sea salt. Salt lowers the melting point of the ice, so the ice around the mold gets colder than ice alone. This lets the mixture freeze without a machine, so the packing must be thorough.
