Time 6h40m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pint fresh strawberries, hulled and roughly chopped
1 cup white sugar, divided
2 lemons, juiced
1 lemon, zested
1 cup milk
2 cups heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Combine strawberries, 1/3 cup sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest in a bowl; stir gently. Cover and store in the refrigerator for about 2 hours.
  • Meanwhile, mix milk and remaining sugar in a bowl with an electric mixer on low speed until sugar dissolves, about 2 minutes. Stir in heavy cream, vanilla extract, and some juice from the strawberries, but not the berries themselves.
  • Add the mixture to an ice cream maker and churn according to manufacturer's instructions, about 20 minutes.
  • About 10 minutes before the ice cream is finished, puree most of the strawberries in a food processor or blender; reserve a few berries to slice for a garnish. Add the strawberries to the ice cream maker for the last 5 minutes of churning. Transfer to an airtight container and freeze until firm, about 4 hours.
