This is the exact "recipe" that I used when my kids were growing up. I'm diabetic, so I don't make it now, but my 50 year old daughter has been bugging me for this family secret for years. I couldn't remember the amounts, so I'm so glad I found this and we're having it at a family get-together today!
Diabetes is completely reversible look on RUclips and watch Dr Berg he has many videos about it. You don't have to live with that nasty disease of diabetes. Now make some ice cream and celebrate.
@@MelLockcuff my family is have family day for the kids coming up and I tried this recipe and omg me my wife and even my mom that is 71 love this recipe thank you so much. You wouldn't have a recipe like this for chocolate ice cream would you?
That's so cool! I'm glad you enjoyed the recipe. It brings back a lot of memories for many people. Ice cream used to be quite the tradition! Thank You.
We use the same recipe but we separate the egg yolks and whites. Whip the egg whites until stiff, pour the mixture into the ice cream maker and gently fold in the whites. Then fill with whole milk to the full line. I have made it a few times without separating the eggs when I was in a hurry or just being lazy. The whites make a big difference and is well worth the extra effort!
Just made your recipe today as a trial run for this weekend. It's my first time ever making ice cream and this video helped me out 100%. All the other videos I looked at wanted you boil and simmer things first. My ice cream came out great BTW and look forward to making more here soon.
That's awesome! Yes, many recipes require you to cook the eggs, which is understandable, although I prefer it with raw eggs. For example, one reader over on the blog says that, “I did bring the eggs (mixed with some of the milk) to 160 degrees, just how I have always done it.” If food poisoning from infected eggs is a concern, that would be something to think about. However, we generally use eggs from our free range hens, and we've not personally had problems.
Homemade ice cream tastes really good. I love to put crushed butterfingers in my vanilla ice cream and that make that vanilla ice cream really tastes good.
I wouldn’t worry about the eggs, hey you’re still alive and kicking. Lol. People forget about when there was no pasteurization or for refrigeration other than big cubes or should I say blocks of ice. I would totally love to try this ice cream. Love your channel!
@Mel Lockcuff - Please let me know if it’s good with duck eggs. You can use any kind of duck eggs. I have had Chinese Peking ducks and my daughter gave me a wild duck. It must’ve been a male it never layes any eggs. God Bless you and Have a great day!
I got nostalgic for my grandmas ice cream and went out and bought a ice cream freezer and stuff to make it. 100 110 dollars and several hours latter I was rewarded with the taste of my childhood, it was wonderful. I encourage every one to make their own, it is so much better than store bought. and you'll have the freezer for ever to make more!
Nothing better in the summer than a Sunday afternoon with family, and a big bowl of homemade vanilla ice cream....yum....nothing better....especially if you have the can of hersheys choc syrup or those melted strawberries in the paper container with all the sugar water....wow....
My mom used to freeze milk cartons of water. Then on ice cream day, my dad would throw them in an igloo cooler (made from metal!) - and chop them up with an ice pick. Lots of work, but it was free. You can also just hit it with a hammer. Just wear eye protection.
Love this, and love the reminder of eye protection. Gosh when you're so excited to get that thing spinning and then short cutting on the eye protection will definitely be a downer
Loved the video! I was looking for a good old fashioned ice cream recipe with eggs. My grandparents and parents always froze the ice in old milk jugs and we bashed them with the hammer. Great memories!
Thanks for this recipe…It’s exactly the same recipe my mother always used. Never had the banana until I married over 50 years ago since that was my husband’s family’s favorite. Banana is the only flavor ice cream I make now and our sons and their families also love homemade banana ice cream 😋
Omg’sh, this is my childhood right here, and my kids childhood! Haha!! I haven’t made it in a while either, but this is everyone’s favorite, so I was just looking at how other people made it, and there are tons of easy 5 minute ice cream videos, but this is the good stuff!! I’m making this for the 4th this year, and I’m really glad it’s only hours away after watching this video..Lol Yummy!! 😋👍🍨 Happy 4th of July!! 🇺🇸
Followed this recipe last weekend - it was delicious! I plan on using your chocolate ice cream recipe this coming weekend to accompany our backyard water day!
Yummy! When I was younger, my parents use to have icecream socials every weekend during the summer! After church on Sunday, everyone showed up! My dad, loved banana.
I use to have to crank when we was kids. It was worth it though, and all us kids lined up to take turns. When the electric ones became popular, it was nice not to have to crank. Kids have it too easy today! 😂
Made a similiar recipe, my grandchildren were amazed at how yummy it was. Do not have my mom's exact recipe, think this is it for sure. Love the vanilla and canned milk taste. And, milk and egg parties. ❤
For those like me that have a Rival ice cream maker that's never been used and lost the directions......there is hope.....RUclips has a tutorial for Rival products and is simple. What I really wanted and needed was Mel's recipe for vanilla ice cream to go along with blackberry cobbler for my son's upcoming birthday......can't wait to try!!!
I can't eat dairy anymore so I freeze banana slices and then put them in my Bullet blender with strawberries or other fruit. Makes a good ice cream substitute!
U can buy an electric vice cream freezer for about $30 at dollar general store or Walmart for about $45. Don't need the vintage looking one for $100. Just a waste of money. Get the basic ones. They work great
Cracks me up that we (the Southerner's) have to explain what rock salt is, because in the South...we all know about rock salt. Right my fellow Southern friends? Lol. I just had to say it. Great video! It's just like my Grandpapaw and Grandmamaw made it every single Summer.
I'm 63 years old when I was a small child we had these big neighborhood potlucks. With slices of cold watermelon on ice, lots of cold salads my uncle lived across the street him and the other men did all the barbecuing. My Dad loved making homemade ice cream of us took a turn one had to sit on it the other one had to crank it. My dad used to make vanilla ice cream then he would take those sugar-coated lemon drops crushing them with a rolling pin then stir it in the ice cream. Such a fun time to be a kid playing red light Green light, Simon says and hide and go seek.
Thank you so much for sharing your memories! What wonderful memories to have. I have similar memories of hand-cranking my grandpa's ice cream maker, and the ice cream was so delicious! Thank you!
Thank you for the recipe! The best so far. Just 1 note. 1 tsp is way too much salt. It was very salty. Next time I’ll try 1|2 tsp. Thanks again!! My family really enjoyed it!!
Well, let me say that your vanilla ice cream recipe isn't good...it's the Best I've had. Your recipe nailed it. I did everything just like you said and turned out GREAT! One question...you never explained what was the purpose of the salt being added? Thank you so much for your recipe. Your friend...Eric Davis.
just found your page today, and it sounds and looks delicious too...... yummy, i sure am going to make this next week end for the 4th of July Lunching....... thanks
maybe you could blend the fruits you want in the blender and then mix it in the ice cream. Then you could chop the rest of the fruits and mix them in too
My mom used to add mint extract & green food coloring. For mint ice cream. It wasn't as smooth & creamy as Thrifty's mint & chip icecream, but it was really good.
I remembered the part when she was cleaning the lid off, to take off the lid, dad used to always say, just don't get any salt in the ice cream and sure enough, she said it too.....Its def important unless you like salty ice cream...
Take a box of little ANDES dark chocolate mints, freeze them, then shred then into the mixture along with Peppermint ext. and green color. ITS TO DIE FOR!! Freezing the Andes keeps it from meting and bunching during shredding.
You mention a feed store for the rock salt to use for freezing. I wonder if most livestock salt or even water softener salt (long as it's not in pellet form) would work too. I still haven't found a "favorite" recipe to use with my old school ice cream maker, but I plan to give this one a try next.
Thanks Mel Lockcuff between you and Jerry James Stone channel I was able to make ice cream.I had a machine in the basement never used.You aswered all my questions.
Hey Mel, thank you for taking the time and effort to produce this excellent, easy to follow, video tutorial on your method to make homemade vanilla ice cream. Can't wait to try your technique this weekend. Keep up the good work!
This was an amazing video! Thank you for sharing! My uncle that recently passed used to make homemade ice cream for our family and I never learned the recipe or how he made it. This looks as good as his. I hope to replicate it in the future. This video was very helpful for me! One question, how long does it takes once the machine start till it turns off?
Stacy, I always recommend freezing the canisters ahead of time, so that they stay cold, That said, mixing up the ice cream ahead of time is not necessary, although you can do it. It just won't help very much. Thanks for asking!

Diabetes is completely reversible look on RUclips and watch Dr Berg he has many videos about it. You don't have to live with that nasty disease of diabetes. Now make some ice cream and celebrate.
Diabetics can use Swerve and heavy cream, instead of the sugar and the milk(s).
Thank you for the rock salt tip.
You are very welcome!

Thank you. Haven't had good home made vanilla ice cream for years. Brought back old memories. I always had to crank the old ice cream maker.
As a kid, I cranked a lot of ice cream by hand. We love homemade vanilla ice cream. It's hard to beat.
Best ice cream i ever had thank you!
Just made this recipe and it's perfection. Memories of my paw-paw came flooding back. Thank you so much! God bless you.

@Mel Lockcuff - Have you ever tried duck eggs? (White Ducks or rather Chinese Peking ducks) The yellow is so thick and rich.

Thanks for the salt tip .cant find rock salt in stock anywhere !!!!
Just made some 2024 thanks
Made my first batch last night. I did it a little wrong. This should help on the next try.
Good luck, Dave.
What camera are you using? I really like the quality of your videos.
Any salt works on ice
Am watching all the way from New York City. You did a tremendous jobs. Keep posting and I will keep watching 😁.
Thanks, Tyrone! There will be no shortage of videos from here.
we have a 6 quart ice cream maker , what is your thoughts on adjusting the recipe ?
just found your page today, and it sounds and looks delicious too...... yummy, i sure am going to make this next week end for the 4th of July Lunching....... thanks
You just taught me how to use my ice cream machine
i would be tossing some walnuts and chocolate in there! hahahaha , looks awesome! , i shall try this
That sounds like a great idea!
Hmmm.... that sounds perfect!
nice job!!
Thank you, Bill!
I certainly loved the way you explained everything step by step. So, if you want banana, pineapple or strawberry, how do you do that?
maybe you could blend the fruits you want in the blender and then mix it in the ice cream. Then you could chop the rest of the fruits and mix them in too
My mom used to add mint extract & green food coloring. For mint ice cream.
It wasn't as smooth & creamy as Thrifty's mint & chip icecream, but it was really good.
I found this store that sells ice cream 😊
If I wanted to turn this to a chocolate ice cream. How much chocolate would I add?
I remembered the part when she was cleaning the lid off, to take off the lid, dad used to always say, just don't get any salt in the ice cream and sure enough, she said it too.....Its def important unless you like salty ice cream...
Take a box of little ANDES dark chocolate mints, freeze them, then shred then into the mixture along with Peppermint ext. and green color. ITS TO DIE FOR!! Freezing the Andes keeps it from meting and bunching during shredding.
That's a great idea! I might have to try this.
Thank you 😊
Thank You for watching, Greg!
I love ice cream
electric churn will never beat the hand churn to get the ice cream cold. No turn, buy it at the store.
❤ this is a custard 🍮 ❤ with the eggs
I just got an Ice cream maker... It is a 4 Quart will this recipe work? It will be my first time ever making it.
what quart size ice cream maker is this recipe for?
You mention a feed store for the rock salt to use for freezing. I wonder if most livestock salt or even water softener salt (long as it's not in pellet form) would work too. I still haven't found a "favorite" recipe to use with my old school ice cream maker, but I plan to give this one a try next.
Thanks Mel Lockcuff between you and Jerry James Stone
channel I was able to make ice cream.I had a machine in the basement never used.You aswered all my questions.
The finer the ice, sown to about 1/4 inch chunks, the smoother the finished ice cream.
Thanks for the great tip! This is so true.
4 quarts? How much does this make? Want to make sure I'm using the same size! Also can you substitute heavy cream for the milk?
I found where it was answered that it makes 4quarts. The answer is below your question, hope this helps.
approximately, how long does it take for the ice cream to finish once you start the machine?
It usually takes our ice cream maker anywhere from 30-45 minutes.
@@MelLockcuff Thank you. this was my question. I’ve had mine for a few years only used it once and have no idea where the instructions are 😅
Hey Mel, thank you for taking the time and effort to produce this excellent, easy to follow, video tutorial on your method to make homemade vanilla ice cream. Can't wait to try your technique this weekend. Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much! You'll have to report back on how it turns out. It's my opinion that you just can't beat homemade ice cream.

Thanks, Mariah! I would say it usually takes around 30 minutes, but it can vary somewhat.
Does it help if you premake the ice cream mix and put it in the fridge overnight and also freeze your cannister before using?
Stacy, I always recommend freezing the canisters ahead of time, so that they stay cold, That said, mixing up the ice cream ahead of time is not necessary, although you can do it. It just won't help very much. Thanks for asking!
How many quarts is your container???
Do you have to freeze the custard or you can just add it to the canister and make once cool
Our go to recipe now. It’s definitely a hit with our family!
You just can't beat homemade ice cream!
