I tried using the 'ice cream ball' that I can make whenever I think it is unnecessary to prepare ice cream



An ice cream maker that can make ice cream at home needs to be connected to a power source for use because it is electric, or it may be necessary to freeze the dedicated container in the freezer for a long time in advance. Yeylabs's ice cream ball, which sells outdoor products, says that you can make ice cream anytime, anywhere by just rolling the ball if you have the ingredients and ice, so to see if ice cream is really easy to complete , I actually bought it and tried to make ice cream.

◆ Appearance
The ice cream ball has arrived. There is a hole in the outer box to allow a glimpse of the contents.



By putting the ingredients and ice in the ball, the ice cream will be completed while playing the ball.



The process is very simple, with 3 steps: 'Put ingredients and ice', 'Roll' and 'Complete'.



When I took it out from the box, it contained the ice cream ball body and Japanese instructions.



The weight of the ice cream ball is 1.17 kg.



It's heavy as a ball and can be held with just one hand. Since the cover is made of silicon, it is soft and puny to the touch.



There are lids on the top and bottom of the body. When opening the lid, open the folding handle ...



Turn the handle and remove the lid. It is designed to put ice cream ingredients in a cylindrical container, and you can make about 500 ml of ice cream at one time.



The opposite lid has a different color. Put ice on this side to cool the ice cream.



When pouring the material into the body, the lid can also be used as a stand for fixing.



Inside the main body, there were instructions and recipes in English, German, French and Spanish.



The cream that is the ingredient of ice cream is said to have a higher fat content, which makes it easier to make ice cream, and it takes about 15 minutes to complete. It seems that it takes about 30 minutes to make ice with milk or soy milk that is low in fat. The recipe book includes basic 'classic vanilla', 'key lime', 'chocolate chips', 'frozen yogurt', 'fruit sorbet' and other ice creams and sorbets.



◆ I tried making ice cream
First of all, I'll make basic vanilla ice cream. Ingredients are 1 pint of fresh cream (about 470 ml), 110 ml of sugar (66 grams), and 1 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract.



Put all ingredients in a bowl and mix.



Open the lid of the ice cream bowl and pour the ice cream ingredients on the side that is cylindrical. At this time, the key is not to put the ingredients in the container and leave about 2-3 cm from the top.



After pouring the ingredients, close the lid tightly.



Then open the lid on the other side and fill it with as much ice as possible. Since the ice does not touch the ice cream directly, it is OK to use cold ice that is not edible. Add 7-8 tablespoons salt to cool the ice and close the lid tightly.



After making sure that the lids on both sides are tight, shake the ice cream ball or roll it on the floor to mix the ingredients. If you move the ball too fast, the ingredients will not mix easily and it will not freeze easily, so move the ball slowly.



After mixing for 10 minutes, open the lid once and use a plastic or wooden spoon to peel off the ice cream inside the container and mix. Be sure to use a plastic or wooden spoon, as a metal spoon will damage the container. At this point, the ice cream is not yet very solid, and the material on the outside of the container is a little frozen.



If the ice is low, add it and mix it for 10 minutes while playing the ball to make a smooth ice cream. You can make ice cream just by rolling the ball with only the ingredients and ice, so you can take it to the outdoors such as summer camps and barbecues, and enjoy the freshly made ice cream.



When I put it in a container, it started to melt immediately, probably because of the high milk fat content.



When I try to eat it, it is much thicker than the commercially available ice cream and the flavor of the cream spreads out. It has a very smooth texture, and when it is contained in the mouth, it melts quickly and feels good. If you like, you can reduce the amount of fresh cream and add milk or soy milk, or mix chocolate chips and color chocolate to make your own ice cream.



Next, I tried frozen yogurt using yogurt. Ingredients are 500 ml of plain yogurt and 80 ml of sugar (48 g) or 120 ml of honey (168 g). You can also use fruit-filled yogurt instead of sugar or honey.



Mix the ingredients as before and add them to the container.



After stirring for 10 minutes, the yogurt solidified along the edges of the container.



It looks like this when mixed and served on a plate.



When I tried it, it had a refreshing taste and a refreshing aftertaste. Since the sweetness is modest, it seems good to add sweetness such as banana or jam to arrange.



◆ Care
After using the ice cream balls, remove both lids and put your fingers in the silicon cover gap to lift them ...



It can be disassembled into pieces and washed with water as follows. There are no parts that are strictly forbidden to get wet with water, such as an electric ice cream maker, so you can clean it by washing it in its entirety.
