STORY BEHIND THE DISH
You just cannot compare homemade ice cream to the store bought stuff. As a kid my neighbor used to make peach ice cream out on the porch with her wooden ice cream maker. I remember thinking it was the best ice cream in the world. Since I have recently purchased the KitchenAid ice cream maker attachment, I figured I would start with the basics, good old vanilla.
