Every spring Young’s Jersey Dairy’s hosts a sale of their fabulous homemade ice cream made right there on the farm. This year’s sale starts Thursday March 24th and runs through MondayMarch 28th.
Young’s ice cream is made from a 15% butterfat mix (pasteurized milk, cream, and sugar mixture) which gives it a very rich taste. They make their ice cream with machines called batch freezers, which make 5 or 10 gallons of ice cream per batch. Each batch takes about 12-15 minutes to make. They add the flavorings at different stages of the process depending on how we want the ingredients mixed in.
The ice cream comes out of the machine at about 23-25 degrees and is immediately put into a specially built walk-in freezer that has a high wind velocity and an average temperature of 30 degrees below zero. Freezing ice cream quickly is one secret of making excellent ice cream. If you allow the ice cream to freeze slowly, large ice crystals will form and a rough texture will result (this is why when you try to freeze homemade ice cream it sometimes doesn’t taste very good the next day).
So pick up a prepacked pint for just $2.09, while supplies last. They start with several thousand pints of ice cream. This is a once a year sale, so don’t miss out! Stock up on Young’s homemade ice cream!
