對於住北半球的朋友來說，很難想像聖誕節是熱辣辣的，是嗎？基絲汀初來澳洲，也是不習慣。但不習慣也要習慣啦。
無論如何，要想辦法去消消暑氣。
剛剛發現超市大特賣雪糕機。於是跟老公和寶貝商量，不如買一個回來試試玩玩。
老公說 (期待地)：雪糕吃得多，但是自己做的還未試過。新鮮製起必定好味些。
基絲汀 (興奮地)：澳洲現在是芒果季節，不如弄個芒果雪糕啦。
寶貝公主 (認真地)：我想吃綠茶雪糕～
慢住，買了這個消暑幫手回來，看看怎樣安裝。似乎不太難。
內附一份說明書，後面有幾個簡易雪糕食譜。不知道效果好不好，要試試才知道。
根據說明書指示，那個看似鍋子的物體（ice-cream maker container），洗凈後要放入冰箱(freezer)中冷藏至少12小時。基絲汀已將那『物體』打入『冷宮』了。待它『出宮』，基絲汀就可以『發功』，但不知道會否『成功』！?
這個週末就有DIY自製雪糕吃喔～ 先弄芒果雪糕呢？還是綠茶雪糕呢？唔…..
真的很有趣，涼爽的聖誕節．
回覆刪除不同凡響呢．
期待看你做的第一桶冰．
聖誕節吃冰
回覆刪除好難體會喔!!~
挺好玩呢
原來妳也會自己做雪糕啊~
回應Polarbear:
回覆刪除不是住南半球的朋友，總覺得蠻有趣，呵呵～
我也很期待這個新玩意會弄出怎樣的冰呢～
回應小咪：
聖誕節來澳洲住住，就可以體會到啦！不過，一定不像你所住的地方。
我也是第一次實驗這新玩意。不知道效果如何，很緊張喔！
Hey G'day
回覆刪除從中時部落格的入圍名單中連過來的
看到你在澳洲，立即將你加入最愛，畢竟你所選用的食材等等，對我來說比較可能簡易取用！太開心啦
而且標題好可愛，看到打入冷宮，還想說怎麼可能才買就沒玩了
我繼續去逛你的 blog 囉
Nice to meet you
Hi Feli,
回覆刪除多謝你把我加入最愛！
你也是住澳洲嗎？如果是，真巧～
那個物體仍然在『冷宮』，不過，就快叫它出來『做工』囉！呵呵～
歡迎你有空再來！
Have a nice weekend!
自己做的雪糕一定比較讚
回覆刪除夏天再來試做雪糕一個...
回應中等女子：
回覆刪除自己動手做冰，很好玩！
等到夏天，你才玩玩～
I bought a 2nd hand one for AUD10 and have so much fun with it. Highly recommend for every kitchen - I love to make my own ice cream / gelato that's not so sweet.
回覆刪除Tea, coffee and fruit are great... here would like to share my personal fav:
Using a "mocha" recipe, my secret of mixing ovaltine + coffee + marsh mallow + choc chip... both gelato style (use water) and ice cream style (use milk) are great. Just be mindful that ovaltine is already sweeten, so less sugar is required.
Next time will try to make red bean ice cream, wonder if Chrisine already tried?
CatCat
To CatCat,
回覆刪除Wow, great sharing. Love to try your recipe too.
I haven't tried to make red bean ice cream before. This weekend I was very busy around with experimenting this new kitchen-hand, and made green tea and mango ice cream. They were all gone in a few hours.
BTW, what brand is your ice cream maker? It's very good bargain, AUD10.
Did you get it from a garage sale?
Seems like you had a very busy Christmas "holiday". Hereby wish you a very Happy New Year, and post us more easy recipes!
回覆刪除Yes la, I bought mine from garage sale, very old Salton model with a large block of dry ice. It's a monster compare to the new ones, luckily in Australia you have plenty of room for toys :)
Really looking forward to your advice on making red bean ones... if in time, want to make it for my parents for CNY - a cool red desert for a hot new year.
CatCat

To CatCat,
回覆刪除Wow, you're very lucky and got one for such a good price. It's not bad if it works. As you said, we have plenty of room for storing up "kitchen toys". Haha...
It's pretty hot recently. I'd definitely eat more ice-cream during this summer.
BTW, how about mixing ice-cream with chilled red bean paste? Sounds right?
To pig pig:
I got this ice-cream maker from one of the biggest supermarkets in Brisbane. Unfortunately, they don't have them available all the time. BTW, which city are living in?
Hi Christine,

To pig pig:
回覆刪除I've been to Mel. twice to visit my relatives. It's a great city that many Chinese people living down there.
This ice cream maker costs only 20 dollars plus, not too expensive.
You can find split peas at any supermarkets. I found them near the canned soups. You may ask for help from the staff at supermarkets. They would help you right away.
