Strawberry Ice Cream

This Strawberry Ice Cream is creamy, refreshing, and bursting with the flavor of fresh strawberries. Perfect for warm days or any time you’re craving a fruity dessert.


Ingredients (Serves 6-8):

  • 1 lb (450g) fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
  • 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • 2 cups (480ml) heavy cream
  • 1 cup (240ml) whole milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp lemon juice (optional, for enhanced flavor)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Strawberries:

    • Place the strawberries in a blender or food processor with 1/4 cup of sugar. Puree until smooth. For a chunkier texture, pulse until slightly chunky instead of fully pureeing.
    • Optionally, strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds for a smoother texture.
  2. Mix the Ice Cream Base:

    • In a large bowl, whisk together the remaining sugar, heavy cream, whole milk, vanilla extract, and lemon juice (if using) until the sugar dissolves.
    • Stir in the strawberry puree until well combined.
  3. Chill the Mixture:

    • Cover the mixture and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until thoroughly chilled.
  4. Churn the Ice Cream:

    • Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, typically about 20-25 minutes.
  5. Freeze:

    • Transfer the churned ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours to firm up before serving.
  6. Serve:

    • Scoop and serve the strawberry ice cream in bowls or cones. Garnish with fresh strawberries or a sprig of mint, if desired.

Tips and Variations:

  • No Ice Cream Maker? Pour the mixture into a shallow dish and freeze. Stir every 30 minutes for 2-3 hours to break up ice crystals.
  • Richer Flavor: Roast the strawberries with a little sugar in the oven at 375°F (190°C) for 15 minutes before blending to intensify the flavor.
  • Add-Ins: Mix in chopped strawberries, white chocolate chips, or crumbled graham crackers during the last few minutes of churning.
