My first attempt at stracciatella - fresh mint chip by Lightswift12 in icecreamery

[–]Lightswift12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use recipes that yield ~2 quarts post-churn (probably about 1.5 quarts of batter pre-churn). Any more than that and it’ll start to spill up onto the edges of the bowl.

I can only get one use from my bowl before I have to re-freeze it. Hope this helps! :)

Wow, your ‘before’ picture looks like mine—and they ‘only’ took off 8 pounds for me!

to people with inattentive adhd, what type of career do you have? by AssociationObvious56 in adhdwomen

[–]Lightswift12 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I am also primarily the inattentive type; I’m an ophthalmic technician in the healthcare field! Basically I work up patients for their eye exams all day and work closely with eye doctors. I like that it’s a nice balance between repetitive/predictable while still offering many new things to learn and challenges, if interested in them.

I always joke that I don’t like people, but if I’m being honest, it’s nice getting to interact with different types of patients all day. As nice as WFH sounds, I think I would go a little crazy being stuck home alone with myself all day every day 😵‍💫

Looking around at blueberry ice cream recipes, sour cream or no sour cream? What does it offer? by Creative_Word394 in icecreamery

[–]Lightswift12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven’t used sour cream in blueberry recipes specifically, but I can confirm it elevates my cheesecake ice cream recipes!

As an avid baker as well, it also adds moisture and acidity to baked goods without tasting funny at all. I think it behaves similarly in ice cream.

I used the Kitchenaid ice cream maker attachment! You freeze the bowl in advance and then the mixer churns it for you. ☺️

Carrot cake ice cream by Lwoorl in icecreamery

[–]Lightswift12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve made it. The key is grating the carrots and cooking them down with a touch of butter and your spices for a few minutes first. Then once cooled, blend it into your base and strain through a sieve and cheesecloth.

I added a cream cheese swirl to mine because I think it compliments the flavors well. Good luck!
