Ingredients

    1 cupAwesome strawberries

    1 tbspLemon juice

    1 cupSugar

    6Egg yolks

    2 cupsHeavy cream

    ½ cupWhole milk

    ¼ tspSalt

Directions

  1. Cut up the strawberries into quarters or so.
  2. Toss them in 1/4 cup of the sugar and the lemon juice and let them sit until they're ready to use (or for at least 30 minutes).
  3. Prepare a large bowl filled with ice water with a smaller bowl sitting in the water. This will be used to cool the cooked custard later.
  4. Combine the milk
  5. heavy cream
  6. and 1/2 cup white sugar in a medium saucepan and heat over low to medium heat.
  7. Meanwhile whisk together the egg yolks with the remaining 1/4 cup sugar in a separate bowl.
  8. Once steam is coming off of the heated milk/cream in the saucepan
  9. pour a splash into the egg mixture while whisking it continuously.
  10. Continue to add small amounts of the milk/cream to the eggs while whisking until you've added all of it into the separate bowl.
  11. Pour the combined mixture back into the saucepan and set over low to medium heat. Stir continuously with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon.
  12. After stirring for several minutes the custard will start to thicken. Once you can pick up the spatula or spoon and the custard sticks to it
  13. hold it horizontally and run your finger through the custard. If it leaves a trail that stays
  14. your custard is ready.
  15. Take it off the heat and strain the custard into the bowl set over the ice bath. Stir for about 5 minutes until the custard has cooled.
  16. Once the custard has cooled
  17. use an immersion blender (or regular blender if you don't have one) to combine the strawberries with the custard.
  18. Place the custard in an airtight container and let the it cool completely in the fridge (this is important people!) for at least 4 hours
  19. but preferably overnight.
  20. Once it's ready
  21. churn it according to your ice cream maker's instructions until it's the consistency of soft servce. You can eat it right away for a softer texture
  22. or freeze it for later.
