FAQs
1. Does Butter Scotch Ice Cream contain salt?
Typically, Butter Scotch Ice Cream doesn't include salt, though some store-bought versions might. If you follow the homemade Butterscotch Ice Cream recipe provided, your ice cream will be salt-free.
2. Does Butter Scotch Ice Cream have alcohol?
Butterscotch can taste a bit like liquor even without alcohol, likely due to the caramelised sugar. It originated in England, and the "scotch" part of the name might come from "scorch," as the sugar is heated to a high temperature. Additionally, alcohol freezes at a really low temperature, which explains why it's not used in Butter Scotch Ice Cream recipes.
