Chef's Notes

  • For frozen desserts, the temperature of the frozen ingredients should be around 20°F (-7°C).
  • About 20 seconds into blending, four mounds should start to form at the top of the blend. Once this starts to happen, stop tamping and allow the machine to do the work. If the mounds are not forming, your frozen ingredients may be too cold and the blend will take longer to process.
