How to Fix Freezer Burn
The good news is that freezer burn on ice cream is an easy issue to fix (so long as you aren’t making any detrimental freezer mistakes).

Here’s how to prevent freezer burn in the first place: If you store your pint upside down before refreezing, the melted ice cream will drip into the lid and have less of a chance of ruining the “pure” part at the bottom that’s still frozen. Just make sure the top is super snug before you try it.
