Notes

How to Store 

Once churned and ready, it’s important to transfer the ice cream to a freezer-safe container. A tightly sealed container will keep the ice cream fresh and free from freezer burn.
This SUMO container is inexpensive and great for fitting large batches in minimal space. If you’re looking for a more traditional pint look, these TOVOLO mini tubs are a great choice!
Or use a heavy-duty, freezer-safe container of your choice.
Most homemade ice cream can be stored for up to one month in the freezer when stored properly.
