Ice Cream Secrets: What Nobody Tells You About Shops & Homemade | Knead To Know Baking Podcast07 Jul 202500:31:38

Think you know ice cream? 🍦 Think again. This week on Knead to Know, Gemma and Ami spill all the ice cream secrets nobody ever tells you — from what really happens behind the scenes at your local scoop shop (hint: most don’t make it from scratch!) to the big mistakes that turn homemade ice cream into a tooth-breaking block.

They cover everything from custard vs no-churn, why vodka (or vanilla) might be the best ice cream trick ever, how to keep fruity ice creams from getting icy, and even George Washington’s shocking ice obsession.

It’s messy, funny, a little bit boozy — and full of tricks you’ll want all summer long.

💬 In This Episode:
🍨 Custard vs no-churn: which works best at home
🦷 How Ami literally broke a tooth on frozen ice cream
🥃 Why a splash of vodka or vanilla keeps ice cream soft
🍓 Using fruit in ice cream so it doesn’t freeze like a rock
🏠 What your local shop doesn’t want you to know about premade bases
🇺🇸 George Washington’s ice cream obsession

📌 Mentioned Recipes & Links:
No-Churn Ice Cream

We Tried It So You Don’t Have To | Knead To Know Baking Podcast16 Jun 202500:24:43

Things get messy, creamy, crispy, and a little chaotic on this week’s Knead to Know.

Gemma and Ami dive into a round of unexpected taste tests—from viral dessert combos to savory waffle experiments and a peanut butter brand that just might break your snack routine forever.

They try:
🧇 Something that definitely shouldn’t go in a waffle maker.
🍷 A combo that has TikTok divided.
🥜 A spoonful of something surprisingly addictive.
🍩 And a donut lineup that sparks serious nostalgia.

What worked, what failed, and what got chili on a cookie? You’ll have to listen.

🔥🔥HOT FROM THE OVEN 🔥🔥

Actor Jame McAvoy was recently promoting his new movie SPEAK NO EVIL on LIVE WITH KELLY AND MARK and they talked about when he won The Great British Bake-Off back in and he revealed some shocking information https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2hlT9gTaD9A

Hosted by horror veteran Matthew Lillard (Scream, Five Nights at Freddy’s) with judges Danielle Harris (Halloween franchise) and experimental food artist and cookbook author Nikk Alcaraz, Killer Cakes “is a one-of-a-kind competition show where bakers with terrifying skills attempt to win some of the most frightening challenges ever produced for television,” according to the official description. https://deadline.com/2024/08/killer-cakes-gory-competition-baking-special-prime-video-matthew-lillard-danielle-harris-nikk-alcaraz-1236043889/

Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams released their fall flavors with a bit of a twist - “this year by putting a few oft-overlooked ingredients back in the spotlight. Passing over pumpkin spice in favor of pumpkin seeds. Switching out vanilla for bay leaf. Creating four delightfully surprising, refreshingly transitional flavors that taste just as good in unseasonably warm weather as they do when that crisp chill finally hits. Plus one familiar favorite — because Brown Butter Almond Brittle has serious autumn vibes.” https://jenis.com/products/the-fall-collection

  • Pumpkin Seed & Rye Cookie 
  • Miso Butterscotch Brownie 
  • Bay Leaf Cheesecake
  • Sweet Potato Marshmellow Praline
  • Brown Butter Almond Brittle - This isn’t a new flavor but a fall must *

  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • Method: combine 1/3 cup (2 1/2 fl oz/75 ml) cream with the cornstarch in a small saucepan and cook over medium heat for about 3 minutes, until bubbly and thickened. Remove from the heat and let cool completely.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the cornstarch mixture with the remaining cream and whip with a wire whisk or electric mixer for a few minutes or until you reach soft peaks.
