Add salt to the ice to make it colder.
You don't ADD salt
I believe that Morton Ice Cream Salt is just standard rock salt, used in making homemade ice cream.
The purpose of using salt when making homemade ice cream is to lower the freezing point of the ice surrounding the ice cream mixture, allowing it to freeze at a lower temperature and create a smoother texture.
Putting Salt (sodium Chloride) to the homemade Ice Cream stops it from turning into a big chunk of frozen milk. It gives it its consistancy.
Yes, rock salt is used to lower the freezing point of the ice surrounding the ice cream mixture, allowing for faster and smoother freezing. It helps create the right conditions for making homemade ice cream by chilling the mixture evenly.

It makes the ice cream harden up more since the salt is keeping it cool, and it makes it taste worse then the original recipe since it dosent call for extra salt.
Salt inhibits freezing (it makes foods have a higher freezing point), which helps the ice cream to remain soft enough to eat straight from the fridge.
When salt is added to ice, it lowers the temperature of the ice. This causes the ice to melt and absorb heat from the surrounding environment, including the ingredients of the ice cream mixture. The lower temperature of the ice helps freeze the mixture, resulting in the formation of homemade ice cream.
The chemcial make up of table salt hampers the melting of the ice.
salt lowers the freezing point of water
You need to have the salt in the ice around the chamber to ensure that the ice will stay as frozen as possible when freezing the ice cream. ;)
