1 pound strawberries
2 cups heavy
cream
1 cup whole
milk
2/3 cup sugar
Steps
1. Wash and
trim the strawberries, then cut into 1/4-inch slices. Place half of the sliced
strawberries in a food processor or blender and puree. Set aside both sliced
and pureed strawberries.
2. Combine
cream, milk, and sugar in a medium saucepan over medium heat and cook,
stirring, until the sugar is completely dissolved. Remove from heat and pour
mixture into a large bowl. Add the strawberry puree and mix well. Cover with
plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator until completely cool.
3. While the
cream mixture is chilling, dice the remaining sliced strawberries into smaller
pieces to mix into the ice cream. Pour the cooled cream mixture into an ice
cream maker and process according to the manufacturer's instructions. Towards
the end of the process, stir in the diced strawberries. Transfer the ice cream
to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 more hours before serving.
