STRAWBERRY ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Place the strawberries in a large skillet, away from the stove, and mash with a muddler or fork.
• Mash until a thick, slightly chunky consistency is formed.
• Add the corn starch and sugar to the mashed berries.
• Mix together then move the skillet to the stovetop over medium heat.
• Once the strawberry mixture begins to bubble reduce the heat slightly and allow the berries to cook down to a thick consistency, about 5-7 minutes.
• Remove the mixture from the heat and add the lemon juice.
• Place the mixture in the refrigerator to cool while preparing the ice cream base.
• In a medium bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract and sea salt.
• Whip the heavy cream with a stand mixer or electric hand mixer on medium-high speed until firm peaks form, about 3 minutes.
• Fold the condensed milk mixture into the whipped cream with a rubber spatula until combined.
• Gently fold in the cooked, cooled strawberries.
• Pour into a 2 quart container.
• Cover with plastic wrap and place in the freezer.
• Freeze for at least 5 hours, or overnight.

NO-CHURN STRAWBERRY ICE CREAM

Steps:

• For the ice cream: Pulse the strawberries in a food processor until you achieve pea-size chunks. Add the condensed milk, vanilla and salt. Pulse to combine; remove to a medium bowl and set aside.
• Whip the cream with a mixer on medium-high speed until firm peaks form, about 2 minutes. Fold about 1 cup of the whipped cream into the strawberry mixture with a rubber spatula until combined, then fold the lightened mixture into the whipped cream until well blended. Pour into a chilled 9-by-5-by-3-inch metal loaf pan, and freeze, covered, until thick and creamy, like soft-serve, about 2 hours. Swirl in any desired mix-ins with a spoon. Continue to freeze, covered, until solid and scoopable, about 3 hours more.

PERFECT NO-COOK STRAWBERRY ICE CREAM

• Freeze mixture in ice cream maker. Transfer to an airtight container and put in freezer to firm up.

STRAWBERRY ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Put the strawberries in a food processor or blender. Whizz to a purée, then add the lemon juice to taste - if the strawberries are quite tart you'll only need a little.
• Warm the cream and milk in a pan until just steaming, not boiling. Whisk the sugar and egg yolks in a bowl for a minute or two until pale yellow. Slowly pour the hot cream mixture into the eggs, whisking as you do. Once fully incorporated, strain through a sieve back into the pan. Gently cook over a low-medium heat until it thickens slightly - it should coat the back of your spoon and leave a channel if you run your finger through it (this will happen at about 82-85C). Be careful not to overcook it as the eggs will scramble. Transfer to a bowl. Cover and cool for 10 mins, then chill for 1 hr.
• Stir the strawberry purée and vanilla through the cold custard. Taste to see if it needs a little more lemon or vanilla.
• Freeze the ice cream in an ice cream maker, or container in the freezer. If you don't have an ice cream maker, freeze for 4 hrs, whisking vigorously or blending in a food processor every hour to remove any ice crystals. Will keep in the freezer for up to two months.
