The provided reference shows Martha Stewart's method for making ice balls involves a special process that requires rigging your freezer with meat hooks to hang individual ice ball molds. Here's a breakdown of how to accomplish this method:

  1. Obtain Ice Ball Molds: You'll need molds specifically designed for creating spherical ice.

  2. Rig Your Freezer: The Martha Stewart method requires hanging the ice ball molds. This means you'll need to install a system to hang the molds, likely involving small meat hooks or something similar attached to the freezer's interior. The reference emphasizes the need for an empty freezer to accommodate this setup.

  3. Fill the Molds: Fill each ice ball mold with water.

  4. Hang and Freeze: Hang each water-filled mold on a hook inside the freezer.

  5. Freeze Solid: Allow the water to freeze completely. This could take several hours.

  6. Remove the Ice Balls: Carefully remove the frozen ice balls from their molds.

This method necessitates careful freezer setup. There are alternative methods, and the video reference might show alternative ways to make ice balls; however, the accessible transcript only describes the hook and hang method. It is worth further exploring additional context to the methods detailed in this video.
