This week on pandagrub we are going to be making ice cream. My brother is studying thermodynamics in science. This was his lab experiment for the week. This was a really fun and delicious experiment!
The panda in the picture above is named Bao Bao. Bao Bao is sitting with the ingredients that we are going to use in the ice cream. He is sitting with salt, two trays worth of ice cubes,vanilla extract,and half and half.
First Bao Bao doubled bagged two sandwich bags. In the sandwich bags, he put in 1/2 of a cup of half and half,1 tablespoon of sugar, and 1/4 of a teaspoon of vanilla extract. Then - he sealed the sandwich bags tightly. Then in a larger sized freezer bag, Bao Bao added 6 tablespoons of salt to the ice. Bao Bao put the sandwich bag into the freezer bag and then he shook the bag for nine minutes.(Remember to close both bags before shaking!) Make sure to shake the bag in three minute intervals. After the first interval the mixture in the sandwich bag should be the consistency of milk. After the second interval the mixture should be the consistency of melted marshmallows. After the third and final interval the mixture should be ICE CREAM!!!! It was an amazing transformation.
Bao Bao thought that this was the best ice cream that he ever has had. He said it was perfectly creamy and smooth.
See you next time!!!!!
