Snow Ice Cream


Friends in Alaska have recently jogged my memory of us making snow ice cream there in our youth.  

Waking up to a freshly fallen white blanket in London this morning makes me want to share with you how we did it.  The recipe below is an adaptation from the one Tania and Sonja use. The whole procedure is quickly done in a few minutes.  If you feel that our air is too polluted to give it a try, then sorry, sugar cookies will be next.  







Ingredients: Makes one large bowl

A large bowl of fresh clean pure white snow
One can of evaporated  (not condensed) milk, 410g
One half to one cup/mug of white granulated sugar (or to taste)
One to two teaspoons of Vanilla

With a hand held mixer, or a free standing one, beat the above ingredients together to a nice fluffy consistency but not too long because the snow will start melting.  Different flavors can be achieved by adding a bit of your favorite jam or, for an orange sherbet style, Tang (an American product).  Serve in glasses with straws or long handled spoons.  Enjoy!
