To achieve the perfect creamy milkshake, the balance of ice cream and milk is crucial. A recommended 4:1 ratio helps maintain thickness. Chef Harris Mayer-Selinger suggests that for a runny milkshake, ensuring it's very cold can help thicken it. Additionally, freezing the mixture gradually, stirring every 20 minutes, can prevent it from becoming icy and maintain a smooth consistency. By following these tips, you can enjoy a delicious milkshake without adding more ice cream.
"We make a soft serve milkshake, so the thickness of ours has a lot to do with the temperature we set. Ours is as thick as it can be, while still being able to pull it through a straw."
"get it very cold, and it will begin to freeze and thicken... serve it quickly and drink it before the cold ingredients defrost and thin everything out."
"Freezing your milkshake mixture will solidify the water into ice crystals, thereby thickening the drink as a whole."
"You should freeze your milkshake mixture gradually in 20-minute increments... After each stint in the freezer, stir the milkshake to maintain the smooth consistency."
