Both prices are quotes on a single share of stock. The bid price is what buyers are willing to pay for it. The ask price is what sellers are willing to take for it. If you are selling a stock, you are going to get the bid price, if you are buying a stock you are going to get the ask price. The difference (or spread) goes to the broker/specialist that handles the transaction.
A freezer can also be helpful if you own a very temperamental canister ice cream maker. After getting your mix cold in the refrigerate, move it into the freezer for 20 â 30 minutes before you are ready to make it. If you have a thermometer you want the mix to be within a few degrees either side of freezing 32Âº F /0Â° C before moving it into your ice cream maker.
Take your ice cream out of the freezer. Let it soften for a few minutes, but no more than 5âyou want to thaw it just long enough to extricate it out of the container. Place the ice cream into the bowl of a stand mixer* fit with the paddle attachment. Mix on medium until the ice cream is smooth and creamy. Be careful not to mix too longâit will get soupy. Instantly forget about that icy mess from moments before and serve that silky smooth ice cream stat.
