Hand Cranked Ice Cream Memories From a Texas Farm
CADDO MILLS Texas AP Terry Eastham uses a modern ice cream maker but misses fresh raw milk and hand crank freezers. He learned the craft on his parents farm near McKinney Denton and recalls three inch ice layers and rock salt for texture. He says crank ice cream takes about an hour to churn while electric takes longer and notes flavor differences and the value of real ingredients versus canned milk. He makes ice cream a few times a year for events and believes few family members share the craft.
