Ingredients

How to make it

  • Combine cream, zest, and salt in a heavy saucepan and bring just to a boil. Remove from heat and discard zest.
  • Whisk eggs with 1/2 cup sugar in a bowl, then add hot cream in a slow stream, whisking. Pour back into saucepan and cook over moderately low heat, stirring constantly, until slightly thickened and an instant-read thermometer registers 170°F (do not let boil).
  • Immediately pour custard through a fine sieve into a metal bowl, then cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally. Chill, covered, at least until cold, about 2 hours, and up to 1 day.
  • While custard is chilling, purée strawberries with remaining 1/4 cup sugar and lemon juice in a blender until smooth, then force through fine sieve (to remove seeds) into chilled custard. Stir purée into custard.
  • Freeze in ice-cream maker, then transfer to an airtight container and put in freezer to harden.

    This sounds fantastic. I love fresh strawberry ice cream. Some friends and I are having an ice cream making party for labor day, and I think I will have to bring this recipe along!
