Ice cream is a frozen food made from dairy products such as cream (or the like), combined with flavorings and sweeteners. This mixture is cooled by stirring while reducing its temperature to prevent the formation of large ice crystals. Traditionally, the temperature is reduced by putting a mixture of ice cream onto a container inserted into a mixture of crushed ice and salt. Salt makes the liquid water can be below the freezing point of pure water, making the container get a touch evenly with the water and ice.
